eBay account on hold question
 

I had a account suspended for 1 year in April 2015. The account is now un-suspended from that, but it is now on hold because I guess my last seller fees were unable to be taken out. I had no idea because I left the account alone until now.
If I pay the fees that are owed, will the account be re-instated back to what it was before the suspension? It had a decent seller limit.
Thanks

May I ask if it was a stealth account or legit.. if it was legit pay the fees and get it back..


But why was the account suspended in the first place.. because if it was due to Vero or non policy compliance and if fees is a huge amount I would forget about it..

Re: eBay account on hold question
 

Its a stealth, and the fees owed is a small amount ($35)
It was suspended for one year for selling tobacco related items that aren't allowed

Let us know how is goes. Wish ya luck

Lol well I was hoping to get some feedback on if its worth paying that $35 off. Will they re-instate the account after I do that?

Re: eBay account on hold question
 

who knows for sure....Only one way to tell.

Re: eBay account on hold question
 

Just didn't want to throw away $35 for no reason :p

Still looking to see if someone else has had this happen and had their account unsuspended after paying.

Re: eBay account on hold question
 

Roll the dice. Sometimes they do unsuspend it sometimes it turns it into a buyer only account

Re: eBay account on hold question
 

Well youve said they've unsuspended it... one step in the right direction. All thats preventing you from using it is the 35$... I would pay it. Technically speaking if they screw you over, you wouldnt have lost out - you did use their service, you made profit, and fees are owed to them. But if it does work... Yay!

Yeah I've always paid my fees, I just completely forgot about this account as it was banned for a year, i thought the fees would be taken automatically but I guess they weren't.
But I mean I just dont wan't to throw away $35 for nothing, I know you said I used their services but they should have taken the fees already lol.

Re: eBay account on hold question
 

What im saying is, you've *technically* got nothing to lose. You owed them the money anyway - so if it works, you have an account, if it doesnt, you owed them anyway. :noidea:

Re: eBay account on hold question
 

Normally if its like 4 months past due and u pay it will instantly get reinstated, but not sure with the length of time you have.

For $35 on an account that you said had high limits its worth trying

Re: eBay account on hold question
 

I think it should be ok, for such a small fee
