The reason I ended up here on this forum is because my son & I use the same IP address via wi-fi because we live next door to each other. Why pay for separate Internet services right? On 6/18/2013 eBay & PayPal linked my accounts with my sons accounts and I got restricted to no selling on eBay and my PayPal account was suspended.
My son's eBay account got hacked and became $94,000.00 in the red with bogus charge backs which PayPal supposedly had to eat.
I have spent dozens of hours (really, dozens) over the past 2 months trying to get eBay to separate me from my son's account and things got real fishy just 2 weeks ago.
First off, even if eBay were to remove all restrictions from my account, I no longer have a PayPal account...........unless I want to pay PayPal the $94,000.00+ they claim my son owes them.
Now eBay comes up with a $2,247.00 amount from somewhere on their end and they tell me if I pay them this amount they will remove the restrictions from my eBay account.
This is where the status remains now and for how long I don't know.
I'm not paying eBay anything considering my eBay account owed them nothing....paid up to date as of the restriction action.
PayPal already told me that until someone pays 94 grand I no longer have a PayPal account so I can't receive PayPal payments if I could sell on eBay again. I'd have to use ProPay and I hear buyers don't accept this very well so why waste my time and money.
I'm throwing my primary issues out here for you to read so if any of this pertains to your case you could see how it's going for me.
Don't let your parents get taken by eBay by paying a dollar amount that eBay says will get them back on line because everyone I have talked to about this behavior tells me they paid the hostage fee and did not get reinstated.
Once we get linked it's over. If you don't want to go with a stealth account for eBay & PayPal, then you don't sell on eBay anymore and that's just the way it is.
I can't speak to how long trying to negotiate with these guys could go on because neither has shut me out from logging into my accounts but no matter how long this lasts they aren't going to let anything slide.
