New Account requiring Seller Identity Verification
 

New account prompted a Seller Identity Verification. Was there a misstep in my stealth process, or is this becoming the norm ?

Re: New Account requiring Seller Identity Verification
 

Normal these days

Interesting:mad: ..

Amazon gets harder and harder by the week :)

Re: New Account requiring Seller Identity Verification
 

Indeed, I dont sell on Amazon but I buy frequently with prepaid cards and the hassle they cause is just a joke. You can tell they are tightening up, they have the budget for it as well.

Just means we need to be smarter:heh:

Re: New Account requiring Seller Identity Verification
 

Has anyone been able to pass verification ?

Re: New Account requiring Seller Identity Verification
 

yes ⊗⊗⊗⊗ IDs

Re: New Account requiring Seller Identity Verification
 

Its true... They're a PITA.

Re: New Account requiring Seller Identity Verification
 

I'm still not clear on this and haven't seen an answer in the guide or forums. I just opened an account and immediately had my selling privileges removed. They want to see a utility bill and business license. It is an individual account, not a business account, so not sure why they are asking about a business license. I don't know if "I am just an individual and I don't have a business license" will take care of that part or not, but what about the utility bill?

Re: New Account requiring Seller Identity Verification
 

You may get away with sliding the business request, as for the utility bill there is no magic password you can say to avoid it. You fabricate a pre-existing template to suit your stealth accounts.

I dont understand why people dont prepare documents first, it should be the first thing you do..

Re: New Account requiring Seller Identity Verification
 

Cool. Me personally, it wasn't the first thing that I did because the guide never mentions it and it's not discussed much in the forums. But I have now ran into the issue, so I'm asking about it.

Any-who, what is the normal procedure for business license, since it;s apparently requested or every account? Jut to make a ⊗⊗⊗⊗ one of those, too?

Re: New Account requiring Seller Identity Verification
 

What are you guys using to create the docs?

Re: New Account requiring Seller Identity Verification
 

I think its hush hush, I get your point there. As for the business license I could not help you, if you need any advice on specific docs just shoot me a PM.

Re: New Account requiring Seller Identity Verification
 

What Id have they been asking for? Drivers license? Is this upon setup now?

Re: New Account requiring Seller Identity Verification
 

This is what they asked me

Re: New Account requiring Seller Identity Verification
 

Basically, they don't really confirm the details (business number, DL number, etc.), correct?

Re: New Account requiring Seller Identity Verification
 

All wasted time in my opinion .Amazon is a lost cause for small fish to sell. They want bigger company's so they can screw them over big time and take there connections that is what they do... Amazon wants to be the only retailer in existence!!!!!!

Re: New Account requiring Seller Identity Verification
 

They can occasionally which is why sometimes the seller verification fails.

Re: New Account requiring Seller Identity Verification
 

What if you're in a different country?

Re: New Account requiring Seller Identity Verification
 

On the business license will they look it up to see who's name is registered?

Re: New Account requiring Seller Identity Verification
 

so once you are fully verified by amazon after account creation, you don't have to take it slowly? meaning you can sell any quantity?

thanks
