Thumbs down ebay account used for 15 years being blocked suspended

Hi,
I am a private individual who has its eBay account since 2006 to sell his childhood toys to make room then purchased a few items as a young adult. And now mid-fourty I am willing to use my account to sell a few stuff I do not need any more at home.

My eBay was created in 2006, has 81 evaluations all of them very positive.

Everything was working fine until I once log into my eBay account and see this for no reason: your eBay account is blocked, your account has been suspended (sorry I only have it in French)
"Le compte de xxxxx est désormais bloqué.

Votre compte a été suspendu
D'après les données en notre possession, votre compte a enfreint les règlements de notre site. Nous venons d'envoyer un message à l'adresse ********@xxxx.com pour vous informer de notre décision.
Si vous êtes inscrit aux services de paiement
Consultez l'onglet Paiements dans le Hub vendeur ou accédez à Mon eBay pour afficher votre solde dû et effectuer un paiement unique.

Si vous n'êtes pas inscrit aux services de paiement
Affichez les informations de votre compte et vérifiez vos factures.
Pour ouvrir un litige pour objet non payé, accédez au Gestionnaire de litiges.
Cliquez ici pour payer en une seule fois la totalité du solde dû.
Si vous avez besoin d'aide supplémentaire, n'hésitez pas à nous contacter."

I have asked eBay why? because I really do not see any reasons. They did not tell me. That's annoying because I really want to get back my eBay account that I have been using for 15 years. What can I do ?
Thanks in advance

You may have been linked to another account ?

Somehow they linked you to another account. Do you know that email address?

I have no idea if I am linked with another account, how can I find out?
I just know that I have never linked anything by myself.

I don't know why folk are saying it's due to linked accounts because there's no mention of it in the message. It could be, but it's only one of many possibilities.

I'll wager it's something about you or your account activities which they don't like. Surely you must have an inkling?

I have seen dormant accounts used to steal from eBay. Not sure if these specific accounts were hacked into, but that has happened as well. Who knows with eBay these days.

Hi I don't have an other eBay account. It is my only eBay account, so I want to keep it as it is good to have an account with some very good evaluation.
I have neither sell nor buy for 11 months in 2021.

The only thing special I have done with my eBay account compared to previously is using Gixen. I wanted to bid on an item, and I did not get it in the end. I had never used such a tool before. The suspension came around 1month after. Do you think that is the reason ? I have searched on the internet for gixen and suspension but did not find something.

This doesn't sound right... I'd get eBay on the phone if I were you.

I have tried contact ebay via email and they neither say the reason (claiming they cannot share) of the issue nor any way to retrieve the account : (sorry it is only in french)
"Bonjour Monsieur,
Je suis Sonia, la gestionnaire de votre compte eBay et je suis ravie de prendre en charge votre demande concernant la suspension de ce dernier. Après avoir examiné votre compte, nous avons identifié un problème de sécurité quant à son utilisation. En fait, ce dernier ne sera pas réactivé.
Je regrette sincèrement cette situation, toutefois, nous avons détecté une faille quant à l'utilisation de votre compte et afin de préserver nos membres, nous avons dû le suspendre de manière définitive.
J'ai conscience que vous souhaiteriez plus de détails sur les éléments qui nous ont mené à prendre de telles mesures, toutefois, nous ne pouvons pas vous donner plus d'informations au sujet de cette suspension.
Ces informations pourraient alors être utilisées par d'autres membres afin de contourner nos règlements et éviter la détection des fraudes.
Dans un souci de préserver la sécurité de la place de marché eBay, il nous arrive parfois de suspendre un compte si nous ne sommes pas entièrement satisfaits.
Vous trouverez plus de détails à ce sujet dans la section relative au non-respect des conditions d'utilisation d'eBay, disponible à partir du lien suivant :
http://pages.ebay.fr/help/policies/user-agreement.html
Cordialement,
Sonia
Département Confiance et Sécurité d'eBay"

Do you think I can retrieve my eBay account and how? is there something I could do by phone maybe to solve this issue?

Welcome to the forum OP - all the best as you master stealth


Based on the message from Sonia, they found some suspicious activity on the account - so not a linked type of situation. Gixen is a free eb sniper app and I could see that as being the potential cause.

You might have no choice but to go stealth for a new account(s). If you want to keep fighting the decision, it's going to be hard but good luck

I have a Paypal account attached to my eBay account. And both use the same email address.
This Paypal account still works perfectly. Since the eBay suspension I have used it to send and receive money (not from/to ebay). I wonder why they are blocking my eBay account and nothing happened my Paypal account, not even a message. Is this usual?

They are separate companies, PayPal no longer owned by ebay.
