eBay account suspended, any way forward?
 

Basically my main eBay account was suspended as they found out I created the account before I was 18 ( I am now 19 ).
Multiple employees from the suspension team told me I could create a new account, so I did.
2 Days after making the new account, I set up managed payments, and boom I got restricted as it was linked to my main.
I contacted support, told them I was allowed to make a new account, so they reinstated it.
Next day it got restricted (again as it was linked to my main) and then perma suspended.
I contacted support later that day, they reinstated it (and my main accidentally for 10 mins lol) and I was back again.
2 hours later it is suspended again. 3 times in 24 hours.
I am now being told that its not up for appeal, and that they are 'parting ways with me'. So confused as they literally told me to make a new account!

Is there anyway I can still use eBay? I know about stealth accounts, but how on earth do they work with managed payments? I could always create an account in a family members name, would that work.

Let me know please.

In the USA you simply make a new account.

Won't it just be banned as soon as eBay link it to the banned account?

follow the stealth guide so you don't link it

I’m in the same boat. 22 years with eBay 22K positive above standard selling stats on dashboard and they banned all 4 of my accounts bc I had 3 returns from my buying account that ebay even made the seller pay for return ship!!
Said I abused the buyer protection. I’ve called (after two days of figuring oooh it how to get a live person) each time trust and safety tells me nope they can’t tell me why not reverse it. I’m 60 grandma selling baby and kids clothing and some soft goods from our old ski business such a threat to eBay. 🙄
I’ve read stealth months ago before MP and have been reading the threads here regarding it. Getting ready to purchase stealth again and may just purchase an account bc I am not that tech savvy nor have the time to create a stealth.
If you haven’t purchased stealth I would even if you buy an account that way you don’t lose that after paying for it.
