Random suspensions

[Rageless1]

Anyone still facing issues with accounts getting hit first listing? I seem to be encountering them lately with "Reactivate your eBay account."

Nearly last 20 accounts created get hit with them. All created on mobile devices using mobile IPs.

Anyone have luck with google fi mobile Ips? Starting to think they are causing the issue.

If you are using the eBay app it stores cookies. So all accounts are probably linked even though you change the IP every time.

Use Top Providers like Verizon, AT&T, T mobile and sprint! Use mobile browser or eBay app to create the account. You can manage it later on a pc. Pc success rate with creating seller account is much lower than mobile.

Disagree with this though. And eb app not really favourable for multiple stealth accounts

The app and mobile browser works great for me. Only for creating though. Managing them I use PC. Creating seller account on pc is like Russian roulette for me. I’m pretty sure eBay links it with the mobile device but they usually need more evidence than just the device link to suspend accounts. When one of my accounts go down it’s only 1 at a time.

It's kind of discouraging reading all this about creating new accounts. Thankfully, I have a ton of old accounts that I just stopped selling on but had high selling limits. So if need be, I just go activate them through MP and start selling with a low-risk item. I had 2 accounts get suspended from "violating eBay policy" or something like that because I started them off with selling higher risk items. But since then, when I have activated a MP account I test the waters with junk, complete a sale, then go on listing as normal. But sheesh... creating new accounts sounds a whole lot tougher than it was when I was creating accounts 5-7 years ago. Good luck and keep us updated on anything you discover.

using the ebay app has been frowned against.

It tracks you in so many different ways and it's definitely not worth using
