eBay Suspended & PayPal Limited Forums - Employer wants to use eBay account

This is interesting,if the Ebay account is a business account ,when the business is sold,the Ebay account could be transferred to the new owner.
Ebay starts out as a person to person buy/sell community,your feedbacks reflects your performance,it would be misleading to your buyers if new ownership would provide the same service.

Re: Employer wants to use eBay account

It’s easy to change details on eBay account not so easy for PayPal. I change my eBay’s accounts details but leave PayPal alone as they want ids etc.

Whatever. I was told "no you can't" their own terms say "no you can't".

So I'm going to stand with my original comment.... "no you cant".

But I'm happy to be proven wrong with some kind of evidence rather than hearsay. :thumb:

Yes you can but why in the world would anyone waste their time proving this to you? :brushteeth:

Experience and knowledge - as well as having done it :thumb:

Honestly it really doesn't matter too much to me what you think with RE to this. Its important that the information that is on the forum is a reflection of what can actually be done in real life. In this instance details can be changed and no I am not going to spend time proving that to you because that doesn't change the fact that it can be done.

Im sure eBay & PayPal would tell you a lot of things can or cannot be done. If you wish to take that at face value that is totally fine if that works for you

Who cares what a stranger thinks? People with that much time on their hands need to get back to selling or get a hobby unless your hobby is the same as agents? To just troll the forum? :shhh::peace::lol:

The amount of times a rep has told me, something is impossible. To also have the same thing repeated by the next 5 reps, only to have that impossible thing happen without argument, instantly, by the next rep I speak to. lol

They're burners, I dont get too comfortable with them to reduce the chance of unwanted attention ditching them every 3 or 4 months or so. Clearing about 150K p.a on those.

Not particularly honest of me but I sleep well at night regardless.

Are your stealth under fictional names? if so, why are you scared of it getting traced back to you by hmrc?

As usual, they're full of shiit. You've ALWAYS been able to sell your accounts/businesses and transfer ownership.
