Dug out an old account!

[andyf777]

Ok so whilst sifting through my black book, i realised i have an old account which had a couple of cases opened and i lost out on the money, and the products.

Long story short, i owed about £150 in ebay fees and walked away from the account. And yes, i know a few of you on here will say "always pay your fees" etc etc. But we all know thats not always the case, especially when you get shafted!

I want to use it again as it has good feedback, its aged and it was a good little account at one point

My question is... If i pay the fees, will ebay reinstate the account so i can use it again? Its been nearly a year.

Any info greatly appreciated! Cheers

1 year is nothing in eBay/PayPals eyes, they will easily have kept the details of that account and be able to refer back to those if you seriously try to reuse that account.

Start again with fresh everything, just build up those feed backs again by following good stealth procedures, and having a couple of backup accounts that you are nurturing along as well.

No way to know for sure.
I had three accounts in a similar situation in the past.
Paid up the fees on all three. Two were reinstated without a hitch but the third was never let back on.
If its worth the risk to you then give it a go. Otherwise let it go and move on (which is what I would do considering the amount owed).
