    Hi 5miles users,

    This is Shirley from 5miles customer support team.

    Pertaining to your previous concern about no free “boost” issue, we feel glad to tell you that “free” boost function is back now, when 4 free boost chances is used off, you just need 9 coins to get one free boost.

    You may ask how to earn coins? Actually, you cannot imagine how easily it is to earn coins:

    • Seven consecutive check-in could help you get over 300 coins=33 free boost
    • Following “Lustro Hair” Instagram could help you get 100 coins=11 free boost
    • Referring a new user could help you get 1000 coins=111 free boost
    • Besides, 5miles also provide other easy tasks to help you get more coins=thousands of free boost chances.

    For more details on how to earn coins, please refer to How to Earn Coins?

    Please do not hesitate to boost your items to get more exposure and offers.

    We hope the changes help get your items sold faster, welcome to get back to me about your new feedback.

    Best Regards,
    5miles Customer Support Team

    Please bring back the unlimited free boosts! My items are priced too inexpensively to allow for buying sales tools.

    This is garbage not being able to boost, well, charging us for it. Most of us have been using you a long time, and been loyal to your site. I can't believe that greed takes over. Now if you're losing money and can't afford to keep this site up, that's a different story. But you need to tell people that, and I think most would understand. I'm usually on 5Mile six or seven times a day, now I don't even go on it and haven't been on it in over a week. Nobody sees my stuff now and now I don't sell anything or even get somebody looking. I think you're cutting off your nose just to spite your face on this one. Here is something else that you probably don't see. I have probably turned 20 people on the 5mile, and how many people have they got to join and then how many people have they got to join. I just won't send people your way anymore, and they probably won't either.

    Sadly, there is NO BUSINESS on this site anymore for local/community selling since the free BOOST was taken away and the AUCTION was implemented.
