Cannot Believe It!!! HAD ENOUGH!!!
 

Hey everyone,

I have been banned from ebay many times before but this time I wanted to do it perfectly.

I read aspkins guide and did everything to the letter.

I created a new email.
Added that to paypal and removed the old one.
Cleared all cookies.
Changed IP address.
Changed name and address.

Before I could sell they banned me.

I did everything.

I then bought 10 items and got 10 feedback and then somehow ebay linked my account to a previous account even though I took all these steps to avoid linking at all.

How could this have happened?

I just dont understand.

Need some advice.

It's the little things that can do.

So with one account before you even starting selling anything you were banned, and with another you were able to list auctions for 10 feedback and then you were linked somehow?

Hey Aspkin,

Sorry I may have confused you.

I had many accounts in the past that got banned but thats because my IP was always the same.

After reading your guide, I followed all the steps.

Then I created my ebay account and bought 10 items and got myself 10 feedback.

Then somehow ebay linked me to another account and banned me.

I am so angry right now.

I dont know how this could have happened.

(Also I am from UK. I would like to buy a UK ebay account that is ready to sell)

Post here or PM me if you have an account.

Regards

are you sure they suspended you for being linked to another account? or because you bought 10 items for a few cents to gain feedback?

i created a new account a week ago and listed 20+ items for $100+ each, they all finished today and the account is still working. so that can't be the problem, that they suspended you because you listed right away. it's probably because they found out you bought items to gain feedback.

Money2burn you bought cheap feedback, so actually you didn't follow Aspkin guide. We don't condone to buying cheap feedback. Thats why your account was suspended.

Maybe 1 or 2 cheap feedback will work but 10, yeah uhhh Ebay is smarter then that

i don't even bother with buying anything anymore. if i am going to use the account to sell, i sell. just sell household items for the first month or so, then back to the money makers after that.

You may have been a victim of thr unspoken (amongst ebay users) of the "nickle & dime" rule.

See, there are organizations out in the cyber-world that sell you ebay accounts with pre-loaded feedback. They usually are sold with 5, 10, 15 and 20 feedback; eBay is totally on to these pkg deals. When you begin selling with your feedback smack-dab on one of these numbers a red flag (supposedly) goes up on your account...this in it self will bring on the request for documentation and validation of your personal information. Guess you can call it...bad timing for selleing.

Good Lord. At this rate, Ebay will have to take off a few years so more babies can be born. There will be no one left to register!

baby boomers to the rescue!

Hey guys,

Thanks for everyones advice and I have taken everything on board.

ChrisHanson: I see you sell Ebay accounts. Are they UK compatiable? And are they ready to sell?

Regards

Cheap feedback buyer we already know

Theres a trick around the cheap feedback, i learned it today O.o but you get a 25% ban chance, plus if you want to sell items, thats the next triky part i gota figure out o.o (under 30 day account)

So its not the fact that I registered a new paypal email?

Because they banned me because they linked me to an old account. I dont see how they could have done that by me buying feedback.

Chris Hanson: I did ask you about the accounts but you seem to have skipped the question.

Regards

Yes...Modee finished my thought brilliantly. Thanks

Ok I understand what you are saying but how did they see that I was linked to a suspended account even though I changed every detail?

Thats the problem.

I understand about the feedback but how did they link me?

Regards

you definitely missed something from your list. perhaps by accident logged in with the old IP? or into the old account with the new IP?

Nope. I was clever. I didnt log in with the old IP and I didnt log into the old account with the new IP.

Could they get me when I changed my paypal email and removed the old one?

I'm baffled. I really am.

Regards

So what you are saying is that even though Aspkin says in his guide that just adding a new paypal email will be sufficent, that the guide was incorrect?

I made sure I followed it to the dot.

Regards

let me get this straight. even if you just add the paypal email address to accept payments for your listing, without linking them officially, it will still get you suspended? :eek:

Tell me about it 'imjustme'.

I understand that this time I got banned because of the cheap feedback but the fact that even next time I will get banned, just takes the piss.

So Modee, if I make a new Paypal, new credit card and get it verified, then all should be good for many years to come as long as I dont break any rules?

Regards

yeah thats fine. but make sure your paypal is legit! They will limit your paypal account and ask for SSN# at some time

Hey Chris,

I have sent you a PM but you didnt reply but instead you posted on this thread.

I hope by posting here I can grab your attention.

I would like to buy an Ebay account from you. I know if it is US, you can still sell on Ebay UK. I live in the UK so a UK Ebay account would be handy.

It would need to be over a month old with good feedback.

Can you help me with this?

Regards

Overseas accounts is hard to make, even though I did make 1 UK account before and the person I sold it too is very happy with it. The feedback isn't cheap items and they are paid with money orders,not paypal.

But yeah since your in the UK just create another account and sell sell sell and quit trying to cheat the system.

I started a new account.

Cleared everything. Changed IP. Made new email. Added it to paypal.

Then when I started my ebay account, they want me to verify either with phone or credit or debit card details.

What do I do?

Chris how much you charge for a UK account?

Or cant I just sell from a US account on Ebay UK?

Regards

Modee, thats why I am asking.

Ebay are asking me to verify my account when I try to register either by telephone or credit/debit card so I dont know what to do.

Do I buy another account?

Do I verify my account by a debit card?

I am lost. I need to get back on asap.

Dude, I need paypal for the products that I am selling.

I am selling ebooks and other stuff that needs paypal as a payment option or my sales will suffer greatly.

Ok so I will do the whole credit verification but should I buy an account with feedback already?

Chris Hanson please reply with a price.

Regards

So now your trying to sell penny ebooks to build up feedback then sell.?? You will be suspended real quick again. Actually something doesn't sound right and I don't feel comfortable selling you an account because clearly you cant follow directions well and I don't want you to get upset with me when/if the account doesn't work for you because you tried to cheat the system or is still using your old PayPal account..

I cannot move beyond my old paypal account. You dont seem to understand that.

I cannot stress how much I need to get back on. $2000 a week depends on it.

So what do I do?

Start a whole new paypal?

Regards

Dude I meant before I was banned. I was selling ebooks back then.

What doesnt seem right?

If you can get an account, I can get straight back to selling.

I wont need to buy penny auctions. Only need to sell. No buying will be done by me.

Regards

we're all in the same boat. if you cant use your old account, you got 2 choices. either make a new one or stop selling.

Look I'll start again.

1. I had an account. I was selling my products on there very successfully.

2. I got banned by ebay.

3. Followed Aspkins guide.

4. On new account, I bought penny items to get 10 feedback.

5. Ebay banned me.

6. I need to get back on but I dont know how to do it.

I hope thats cleared it up.

Imjustme: If i make a new paypal, dont i need a new credit/debit card or can i just use my prepaid splash plastic card?

And I would need to be verified because of the high amounts of money withdrawls and income.

Regards

i don't know how the rules are in the UK, to be honest. i'm in japan and it's totally easy here. i can use any debit card (costs $10 at my bank to open and takes 5 minutes) under any name to verify my paypal account. i have 4 accounts now in different names all receiving funds without problems. i even received a payment last week for almost $1000 on an account that was open for less than 2 days. payment showed up in my bank account 3 days later.

if you can use debit cards (visa electron would be good) in the UK, you're good.

Wrong. You didnt follow Aspkin guide. Where in the guide does it says to buy cheap penny feedback?????

Ah i understand what you are saying.

Its just that I dont want to open a debit card and then get it blacklisted so I cannot use it again. That would be annoying.

Regards

Ok dude, I changed my process a bit.

Calm down man. Dont get so defensive.

I was wrong to do that but that aint the issue.

They still linked me somehow so its gotta be the whole paypal email which means I gotta start a new paypal.

I understand now.

if you were making $2000 a week , money shouldnt be a issue to you. Just go and buy another debit prepaid card

I was making $2000 a week just from ebay. Thats why I want to get straight back.

Dude, I need a new paypal right? So I cant use that to make a paypal can I? Because it would need to be verified.

Therefore I need to open one at the bank which I dont really want to do.

Regards

Nope sorry to say your out of luck if you cant get a close friend to open a Paypal account for you. They will limit new accounts and your going to have to provide SSN#

Good Luck

'They will limit new accounts and your going to have to provide SSN#'

What you mean?

Every new account they automatically limit?

And is it compulsory to provide SSN# tax number?
