Good Afternoon Everyone,
now that ebay and Paypal have separated, is it possible to get an old account back that is in my name that was restricted indefinitely?

Ebay or paypal?
If it is paypal, only way to know is to caall in.
If it is ebay:
Two ways of k nowing.
1.) Hit "sell" and see what happens.
If that goes to your dashboard and it shows below standard then option two is
2.) Help and contact, select contact ebay, select suspensions and restrictions and see what the options are.
IF you get the call in link, you can try that.
If it forwards you to an email link, very good chances you can get the account back. You will have to write a detailed series of steps of what has changed since your last communication.

my selling dashboard says "Your seller dashboard won't be updated after Aug 20, 2014, because you were restricted from selling on eBay"
21.08% of your transactions had defects.

Perhaps I don't see it....but why would Ebay/PP all of the sudden look deep inside their heart(s) and say, "Gosh...We were so wrong, we really should re-instate everyone's accounts and hope these sellers can forgive us for our sins" but maybe I'm wrong.

It feels like its been 2 years, after you reinstated your 2 year account, did you add a stealth Paypal?

I have a similar problem my account got limited because Ebay wants receipts/invoice of my products that I sold. Problem is that I don't have any of that..
I got this email from Ebay 08/01/2014 and I haven't provided them with any info or signed in on the account.
Any suggestions how to get it back?

Personally though, if you cared enough to ask, I'd say it's worth an email.

But to answer your question, no, haven't tried recently.

I do not have any extensive experience with this. Some say it does but those might be only for short term.
