Forum

Welcome to Aspkin Forums! Contribute! Contribute!
 

Yep, I finally got the forums up! After some minor server problems, everything is set and ready to go!

With these forums I'm open to anything relating to eBay, SEO, marketing, politics, entertainment and more. Just keep it clean, act like an adult and we can get along. Though I'm willing to basically talk about anything, the main purposes of these forums are to talk about issues related eBay suspensions. My eBay guides have created a kind of community, and I thought it would be better to have a forum to handle the issues.

Also this is my first forum so bare with me for a couple weeks! And I know it takes time to get forums going, but I'll try my best to lead people to it, so please contribute to get our forums going! Thanks guys!

Alright now we can have some orgnazation here!

Any advice about getting around this?

well the first step would be to edit your own post and delete your name from the letter you've cut n pasted!!!:rolleyes:

you'll have to set up a new paypal account in all likelyhood. you'll need to take some time to plan to become a new person in paypal's eyes and that may mean going to the extend of setting up a new savings account etc so you can receive funds.

I'm surprised that they booted you off for that one offense?

getting back on ebay
 

You seem to have alot of good answers on how to get back on ebay, but dont they ask for a drivers license number and a social security number when signing up with ebay and paypal? Please get back with me on this one..
Thanks

Depends where you come from tyandlayne.. check out the eBay suspensions guide and read through the forum and most questions should be answered.

aspkin
I am going to start setting up my new account assap but I have just a couple questions for you, with prepaid Debit Cards (Visa/Mastercard) do they have checking account attatched to them on line for you to withdrawl your money from a atm? Greendotonline has this option but you purchase the card at the store then you activate it online they give you all your account info then a card is mailed to you, so if you are using a a ⊗⊗⊗⊗ address and name this will never work. and I am not sure how you will get the money out of your paypal account? could you please clarify this for me asap I want to get started today on this issue.. Thanks so much

Hi again,I just want to make sure that I am doing this correctly, I went to simon.com and does this use your own credit card info that I have currently and they give you new info... I gues what I am getting at is like I said how do you get money out of your account if you have a ⊗⊗⊗⊗ address and name.. Do all prepaid credit cards have a checking account attatched to them to have money deposited right onto the card... Thanks again for all of your help.....

credit card debit info
 

Thanks for everyones help but I need help setting up a paypal account then figuring out how to retrieve money out of it.... I really do not want to us my own name and when setting up the ebay account when you say you accept paypal I am assuming you do not connect the two you just put the email address in your listing for paypal am I correct? I really need someones help on this one thanks...

ebay and paypal
 

I have another question when signing up for ebay and paypal should I use two seperate email address (example one for paypal and one for ebay) with each of them being different email address.. Please someone HELP!!!!

Some do, it depends on the card.

You'll receive the card. Once you have the card you can spend what ever is on it online. You can even setup a mock Paypal shopping cart, and send your self money that way. Read the fine print when signing up for an account. They tell you what you'll receive, how you check your balance etc.

I believe simon.com shows you your balance at your request, but it's not like a bank; you can't reload money onto your account. You'll just need to get a new card. It's more of a giftcard then anything.

That's correct. To get money out of your Paypal account, you'll need a new bank account. After you create your new account, simply add your bank account details. Create your Paypal account as you would an eBay account. You'll need to use your real name and most of your real address to do this. Get verified and confirmed and move from there.

This doesn't matter. Just make sure you don't link accounts and you'll be okay.

Paypal
 

We tried setting up a new paypal account a few months ago but they limited that one also because of our both accounts had the same address, and they connected the two and then wanted all this info to veryify info... So this did not work either.. HELP :confused:

Will paypal limit accounts that receive money from websites of $5 a sale?
