90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

I've been battling payments this week on one of my suspended accounts that has reached the 90 day wait for funds to be disbursed. The credit card is now invalid but they keep telling me to release my funds I have to add a valid card. Does that make sense?

If some of you are still wondering why I still have a professional plan instead of switching to individual its because we created products in brand registry and we are concerned that it will affect those products or remove the details from catalog thus rendering the products as Inactive and not allowing us to sell them again from another account...that sounds like a riddle so I hope it makes sense.

Have you guys ever heard of needing a valid CC to get your money after 90 days? Doesn't make sense. Its not like I can use the account for anything.

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

before each disbursment amazon check cc, so it looks normal they ask for it

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

Even for a suspended account?

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

Yes even for a suspended account.

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

Just enter the credit card if you want your money, there is no other option sorry

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

there are no reason for they don't do. Your account is suspended so you cannot sell anymore, but you still can buy .

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

You'll need to enter another valid CC with matching billing information to pass. If you need help send me a PM

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

Why are you so paranoid about providing CC info? You think Amazon is going to steal from you? :lol:

Shady shady shady....

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

Thanks to the people that provided helpful information. Not like above.

I'm not paranoid. I'm annoyed. Why should I have to tie up $25 on a CC for a suspended account? There's no valid reason for them to have a CC at this point but I'll go ahead and do it and then just use it for groceries later after the disbursement.

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

You guys were right. Put in a new CC and the money was released within an hour. I wish they would do that on normal functioning accounts when the CC comes up invalid. It sucks waiting two weeks for the next disbursement date.

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

Just out of interest why do you tie up $25

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

The CC giftcards I get locally are $25 minimum purchase but they work flawlessly and easily.

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

Again.....why not just use your real CC?

Shady shady shady....

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

OK, but you can spend the $25 and its only cost $3 for the card.

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

Lots of people like to use gift cards if possible, nothing shady.

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

No reason to if you understand that they can't see your name and you only need to match the zip. Gift cards were the prime thing only because people didn't know this fact. Real CC's are fine for "stealth" unless you're doing something ILLEGAL you don't want traced back to your real identity. That's my point.

I use my real CC and debit cards on ALL new stealth accounts I create now, simply because I have nothing to hide, should eBay/Amazon/PayPal decide to investigate me. It's cheaper and there's no downside. I pay my fees and I sell genuine items, so wasting money on gift-cards makes no sense.

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

If you have nothing to hide why stealth, why hide behind false information. Off course it always leads back to the the banks bank account holder. Please GOA don't kid yourself you are legit.........

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

Excuse me? Everyone here was suspended at one time or another. It's a well known fact that once you've been banned, you're banned for life.

Are you suggesting that merely because I use a stealth name/address I'm participating in illegal activity? Because that's a pretty bold and stupid accusation.

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

Not bold, not stupid just the truth. Just google "fraud"

Yes we are all here for that reason, but why kid yourself.

If amazon discovered your info as false it would be suspension/deletion.

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

Certainly. But that's not something I fear. They aren't going to chase me down, PERSONALLY, for supplying false info.

That's why I have my REAL personal cards attached to my accounts...because I'm not afraid of them chasing me down if they do find out the accounts are false. That's my point. There's no advantage to gift cards unless you're doing something illegal----period.

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

The advantage of gift cards was that people who want to open several accounts (why I don't know) it is that its easier, nothing dodgy etc, to go to Safeway etc than to go to the bank.

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

People open multiple accounts to diversify their risk from being suspended and to make money slowly per account but enough to survive when spreading their products out over several accounts. Before you say anything GOA, I don't mean duplicating them. I mean spreading them out over multiple accounts. That is straight out of the stealth books. I also have backup accounts ready to go in case one goes down, my products are back up in an hour. I've gotten pretty good at creating them. It takes me maximum of one hour to do everything including going to the store for the CC and and phone.

Using real debit/cc cards honestly takes too much time. If i needed 10 debit cards my bank would expect 10 different signers or 10 different checking accounts and I'd have to wait for the real cards to show up in the mail...Not to mention the hours I would spend at the bank. No time for that. I can go down to the grocery store and get 10 giftcards in a short amount of time. I use real bank accounts...That is enough hassle. The banks think I'm crazy with 25 checking accounts but once I explain it to them they understand and are ok with it but I don't add bank accounts until later when the accounts are close to their first disbursement.

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

There is one advantage but it doesn't involve anything shady. Its more a safeguard...A few times this year Amazon has charged me incorrectly. One charge was $900 that took me 3 months to get corrected...if that particular account had, hypothetically, not sold enough to cover the balance they would charge my card on file the difference. With a giftcard, i safegaurd myself from being out the $900 while I dispute the charges...Unfortunately on that instance my account had enough to to cover the $900 and I was out that money for 3 months....and don't think Amazon will ever give you anything extra for holding your money for 3 months.

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

Its more about having to use $25 + $3 for the cards and driving to the store..I barely have time to sleep these days so thats more time out of my day for something that doesn't really add up...Valid CC on a suspended account? They can't bill me for anything and I can't charge anything...Doesn't make sense but it is what it is.

Buy a cheqp vcc here on the forum for 10$

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

Hadn't seen an Amazon one for $10 since before they shut down most of the VCC's. Most now are $25 that I've seen. I found a local one that works flawless every time with no registering and stuck with that.

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

sorry GOA, do you mean you can use the same card for all your accounts, or you use differents cards ?

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

Tooknapa:

I use different REAL credit and debit cards.

Guitar: You can open bank accounts online at almost EVERY bank in America. The cards show up in the mail within a week. Based on your own philosophy, you create accounts over time as you get the cards. Really no inconvenience nor time spent. Plus, when Amazon discovers the pre-paid card you're using (and they will) and shut it down, It's going to be entertaining to read about how you're scrambling to find gift cards for 10+ accounts.

Also, using a credit card means I make one 5 minute phone call to my bank and the charge is off my statement. I make no payments on it and pay no interest until it's resolved. Unless Amazon can somehow PROVE I owe the money, it never gets placed back on my account.

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

Who do you bank with?

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

Bank of America, Discover, Chase, Capital One, Citi, Charles Scwhab, PNC, Fidelity, USAA, US Bank, and others.....

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

GOA, there is also the issue oof banks needing $20-100 deposits to open these accounts.

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

What bank account do you know of that requires $100 to open the account?

NONE of the above do. In fact, several were opened with $0 deposits ONLINE.

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

Then you are not doing your research correctly.

Deposits are not needed for many accounts.

You need to find them.

:juggle:

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

You use your real name on the credit card?

Won't that link back to your old suspended account? I have such a unique name and I was recently suspended- I am afraid to use it as it seems so obvious. If you search me on facebook - I am the only person with that name

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

You need to use the search function.....

There are several threads that discuss this issue in great detail. In fact, I authored most of the posts in them....

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

To make it simple, you can add any name on amazon as the credit card owner. Amazon AVS only check House Number and Zip Code, and I am sure only one of these has to match as the charge is only $1.

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

Amazon has tightned there security with U.K accounts recently, before every disbursement they are charging my vcc £1.00, one of my accounts been over 120 days and they are still refusing to pay me or to get in touch with me, i called and written to amazon seller support numerous times but no reply :(, make sure you have a valid vcc attached to your stealth amazon accounts for security !

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

You should join the police or whatever the American version of trading standards or hmrc is if you have a problem with people doing illegal stuff.

Don't personally sell f akes either but let me guarantee you that you're in the wrong place if you don't want to mix with people who do. You may aswell join the klu klux klan and start talking about multicultural society

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

You need to read the forum rules. Discussions of activities such as this are not allowed. Even if I whole-heartedly believed it was a good thing to promote copyright infringement, which I do not, it's against the forum policy anyways.

I refuse to believe your assertion that many or most of the people kicked off of eBay or Amazon were removed because they willingly sold phakes. I think most people were caught off guard because of some unrelated policy violation. Certainly, SOME people do sell phakes, and that's between them and the FBI. But most of this forums membership are honest people trying to make an honest living, IMHO.

Re: 90 days have passed and they're asking for CC on suspended account for payout
 

Nobody was promoting it, no1 even mentioned it, you were the one who started saying 'shady shady shady'. Ofcourse we can't talk about it on here for obvious reasons.

I didn't even say many or most were but now you mention it I'd probably bet my life in return £5 that the most common reason for a perm ebay ban is selling fa kes, 50%+ of the sales on ebay are fa kes, good luck trying to find any genuine cosmetics or designer clothes
