Default whats better for ebay a landline or mobile phone

Just wondering would a landline make my stealth account stronger than a mobile phone?

Landline. And that's by a wide margin.

Mobile does not raise suspicion, but a landline helps strengthen your account. It appears to carry some Creedence as regards the legitimacy of your business. This is also true even outside of eBay / PayPal. Some distributors here in the UK wouldn't let me complete trade account application if I did not leave my landline on the application.

On the paypal side, Landline.
On the eBay side I found it to be a toss up.

Nowadays people are on mobile phone, so I think the ones who still have landlines are the older generation.

Don't you have to register your real name and address with a landline?

Likely the platform could identify the two landline numbers as being so - probably helped.

I would think that the caller ID and public account information (white pages, etc) would make a landline a terrible choice for stealth.
A prepaid mobile phone can be registered in any name, anywhere...seems stealthier and safer to me.

I'd go for a cell phone with multiple sims.
Cheap and flexible.

I dont think you need ID to get a landline?
never think of it,say if you rent a room to someone and he wants another landline,I dont think he will have problem getting it,no different than the landlord getting a second line.

Usually you need ID for a landline since it's done via a cable/telephone company and they will do a credit check on you to make sure you will be able to pay their monthly fees.

Again ending the sentence with a "?" agent hah funny
