Zero selling limits on new accounts
 

Followed the stealth guide to setting up a new Ebay/Paypal, but at the moment i'm constantly getting zero selling limits on new accounts. I don't understand why I'm getting this as ive successfully set up new accounts in the past.

I thought the number forwarding app I was using was the problem but I bought a cheap pay as you go sim and tried again, still getting the same problem.

Any help is appreciated.

Re: Zero selling limits on new accounts
 

Ensure a bank account is attached on Paypal and request higher selling limits within My Ebay. This will get you to 10/£650.

Need the PayPal to be bank verified :)

Then you wont have any issues

Re: Zero selling limits on new accounts
 

Had the bank account verified with the 4 digit code this morning and entropay also attached successfully.

Tried requesting higher selling limits as suggested and got this message "You can now sell up to 0 items or up to £0.00 per month, whichever comes first"

You may need to pop into chat to get that increased to 10 / £650. Should be automatic though

In future you want to make sure that your PayPal is bank verified before turning it into a sellers account

Re: Zero selling limits on new accounts
 

Check your email, some times there is a 15 minute delay after this message. If that doesn't work re-request a raise in limits and just stay on the page with your email open for 20 minutes and it should show.

As realdeals says - usually 10 minute delay or so, should get you 10/650 regardless of the message you have seen.

Sorted guys, thanks alot!

Sorry but this isn't true. If eBay can't verify the stealth name and address, the limit will remain 0/0 until you call in and verify info.

I hear someone said cause use GV.

Re: Zero selling limits on new accounts
 

The discussion was referring to UK accounts.

See above.

You sure... Their flags look the same to me [emoji12]

Re: Zero selling limits on new accounts
 

The original discussion started was about UK accounts getting 0/0 limits. :)

Yep i was pulling your leg [emoji6]

It is strange how people cannot see the obvious when people post from a certain country and get replied about rules from another.

Re: Zero selling limits on new accounts
 

Okay, just to end this drama. US doesn't have a chat feature only calls, while UK has chat and calls to confirm the account limits.

Now, whichever comes handy to anyone feel free to use what is available in your country.

For the thread starter, call or chat with ebay UK.

1. Change your font colour. It is awful.

2. Do not give advice when you are not qualified to.

3. The OP has already had his problem solved with advice given.

4. NEVER advise someone to call or chat to ebay when there is no need.

That's a bit rough man!!!!

The person is only trying to help.

1. - I like orange
2. Wow, who is qualified? - are you the judge? We are all qualified, you know the score XxX
3. OK
4. Another member has also stated you may need to go onto chat - why don't you curse them? - double standards?

Sorry if my post seems rude, its not meant to be, I am just saying what I am feeling X

Re: Zero selling limits on new accounts
 

They may be trying to help but they are wrong.

Yes I do feel I am able to judge who is qualified and this guy certainly isn't. No, not everyone is qualified at all.

Any member who says you need to go into chat or phone is wrong. This is about account creation. The limits will eventually show. What JamesNorth actually said was the limits should show automatically, if they don't then you need to go to chat. This is correct, the limits will indeed show automatically. So no need to call James out as what he states is true and completely different from someone just saying call ebay / chat ebay straight away when they CLEARLY do not understand the present UK account making process.

Re: Zero selling limits on new accounts
 

I do have a slightly different viewpoint - a lot of the time when you create an account and it 'glitches' I always find that's not because the limits won't show, it's because it's a high limit account.

The ones that glitch tend to me the 1000 item accounts in the UK. If you leave them and don't speak to chat you're good to go however, there have been instances if you go on chat they setup your selling limit table for you with the 1000 / £15,000 limits.

Also, lets stop the rumour that you need a VERIFIED PayPal attached to the eBay to even get any selling limits. I NEVER make a Paypal before turning the eBay into a selling account.

End of the day, it's all down to creation.
