Ebay collections?
Anybody had experience with ebay collections?
They are sending me emails asking to pay for suspended account. What will be the next step?
eBay collections? |
| aspkin | 03-21-2007 12:16 AM |
That's about all they can do if your credit card on file won't fork over the funds. They almost have nothing on you. |
What if they send to collection agents? |

screw ebay...they can't do jack |
| aspkin | 03-21-2007 05:53 PM |
Jayt unless your gave them your SS# or real home address with a name, they can't do much. |
Aspkin: I actually used my real home address with few variance as you mentioned in your guide. Will they catch me? And after that? |

| I used my real name and it is quite unique, but address was ⊗⊗⊗⊗. Any chance that collection will find me?
I can dispute these charges with ebay, but I don't know if there is a sense to waste my time? |

Yea, I have over $500 AT LEAST probably closer to 1000 BC I get suspended every 6 months or 3 months, and no way am I paying after all the time I wasted, and refund to customers due to suspension. I hope they go bankrupt and maybe a better auctionsystem will take over. |
| ihatebay | 03-25-2007 03:20 PM |
well, I think because I never changed the IP so I get suspended everytime. I only register under a new IP, but when I get home I always log into my old suspended IP. I never knew why either, until now. It's not what I am selling I'm sure because each time I sign up I last 3-6 months and sell so much I am a powerseller. My buyers are all very satisfied. Do you think 15 items my first week is good? All my items end around $100-150, I always start at 0.99 |
| ihatebay | 03-25-2007 04:12 PM |
Okay, what if I created a ebay account like 6 months ago but didn't use it? Can I start selling 15 items a week now? It's my mom's account... |

| My feed back on my mother's account (the one that is about 6 months old, and one I just started listing 15 a week) is only 6 feedbacks. It's all positive.
My other ones (2) I just opened this week and I plan to list tonight on Sunday. I'm thinking of doing 15 items at 0.99 cents. I've taken on a new identity so I don't think Ebay will suspend me. Also, would it be really my fault if my items sell above $100? Therefore Ebay may not suspend me, only for suspected shill bidding, which wouldn't occur as I don't shill bid. I don't know, your opinion? |
| ihatebay | 03-25-2007 10:27 PM |
Oh, really. So what is I list them all at $99? It would be 15 auctions, I don't know if that would be even more suspicious? Ughhh, help I can't do this either ways... |
| aspkin | 04-10-2007 05:40 PM |
If you don't link your accounts, then no you won't have a problem with your Paypal account. Simply add on a fresh email address to try with another eBay account if something happens. And I don't believe paying for your auctions with your paypal account will link your accounts. I usually don't buy items though, so don't hold me to this. :) |

Chargeback against eBay fees
eBay suspended me and I was pondering changing my card number and then I figured well I don't want to be faxing them my personal info even though it's just two weeks. So I checked my online banking first and eBay had charged my card.
So I put it in dispute.
Has anyone had any experience doing chargebacks against eBay after they suspended you? I read on one site someone wrote that it worked. |
| aspkin | 04-12-2007 02:21 PM |
Most chargebacks do work; you just have to enough proof and patience to keep fighting it week after week. Dealing with your checking account is different though. It could take you months to see any results. That's why I only use credit cards for most big purchases, because of the added protection. |

Re: Collections
I got suspended for a linked account last year. all my accounts got taken down in one fell swoop and $2000 worth of sellers fees all came off my credit cards in one hit. it wasn't a good day :mad:
anyway for some reason one account they didn't call in the fees. I pretty much forgot it as I'd ditched the email accounts associated with it and moved on.
then about 3 months ago I start getting collection agency mail at my house for somebody like 'tipsy mcswagger' which was (kind of) the name I was using on the account.
I ignored every letter they sent each week then they've just stopped. I guess some human had to look at the system generated letters and realised they'd been had. ultimatly I stopped them getting a few extra $$$ out of me. |

Funny - then - just a few days ago I received some email from EBAY saying, the chargeback has nothing to do with this and you still owe because the fees were for auctions that were not suspended. Yeah, right. The check is in the mail!
| Damn! I'm going to try this first thing Monday morning. Try to recoup about $1500 in fees for the last two months before I was formally suspended. |
| hurley | 11-08-2008 02:23 AM |
sorry to bump an old thread, but i was using the search feature and this came up.
i filed a charge back for 100 bucks or so in seller fees.
just got an email from ebay saying i still owe fees, so my question is what happens when this goes to collections? do they just send numerous emails, letters, can this be reflected on ones credit report/history? |
| pinkharo | 11-08-2008 04:05 AM |
Nothing actually happens based on my experience. If they send you a letter I wouldn't even bother opening it. Just have the letter returned to seller and write on the envelope "no such person" and they will stop bothering you. And no, it does not affect your credit history, at least not for Canada. |
| mariedraper | 11-08-2008 03:49 PM |
would this still be the case for paypal? as far as the collection agencies, etc. I closed everything down, checking, cc. |
| hurley | 11-08-2008 03:49 PM |
return to sender, that's a good idea. |

| I can actually speak to this. They can link you to your Paypal accounts just by paying for an item. Had all my accounts taken down last week for one REALLY old account that I had, all had my business address and phone. They suspended my wife's account too, even thought it was in her maiden name, had our home address and phone number. Never logged in through the same IP. Had to be that I paid for a few Paypal items for her that linked her. Be careful! |
| pinkharo | 11-08-2008 11:44 PM |
That's weird, paying for something never linked my accounts. When my accts go down they go down themselves. I will have to look in to that. |
| brokebackebay | 11-11-2008 01:21 PM |
It most certainly can ding your credit in the US. If they have your legitimate info they can and they will report you for even a PayPal acct. being overdrawn. And it will show up on your Credit Report.
As for charge back working, absolutely. Now, I'm assuming that this would be dependent upon your cc co, but I did that for my fees and never heard from ebay again about it. They've just harassed me for overdrawn PP accts. And that is only because they freaking gave a refund to a buyer after I was suspended, even though there was proof within PP that they had received the item.
But seriously, definitely can ding your credit if they have your real info. |
| tonyaphx | 11-12-2008 10:35 PM |
Can they ever find out who we really are thru our bank accounts since those are in our real names and go after us that way? |

How can a regular seller with a merchant account do that to a buyer who does a fraudulent chargeback? |

ebay collection
I need help you ! This is my story
i sold pair of shoes to guy off ebay. he opended dispute on paypal says he didnt receive em . paypal limits my account and they say he won.
so then ebay suspends my account becuase i owed them $135 and my paypal was my automatic payment but paypal denied it so ebay keeps emailing me saying your account is suspended and until you pay those fees it will remain suspended. now the collection agency called and im freaked out.
what should i do? Should i pay the fees? IF i dont pay, what will happen?
Please help me out. thanks |
| yaw1800 | 12-11-2008 11:00 PM |
if its your real info, it may get placed on your credit report. You can dispute the collections though, has it been 30 days since you got the letter from collections? |
| digzober | 12-15-2008 05:42 AM |
yaw1800, what do you mean dispute the collections? You mean respond to the collections request and say it was not yours? |
| yaw1800 | 12-15-2008 12:08 PM |
You can have them validate the bill, it has to be in your first 30 days though of receiving that letter or call from collections. Just play stupid lol .. "what do i owe them for???" "i dont think so" ..
was that ebay account with legit information? |
| siashay | 12-15-2008 01:48 PM |
If you tell a collection agency to stop calling you and stop sending letters they have to listen. If they turn it over to collections you challenge it with the three credit bureaus. go to each of there websites and find out how to dispute and item on your credit report. You can even get sample letters off the internet. Make them prove that it was your account. (paypal and ebay never respond). Most internet debt is written off your credit score because it is so hard now to really prove it was you with all the internet fraud.
I had stuff on my credit report that wasn't mine. I went to my local police station. Had this simple report made out. I didn't even have to tell them what company it was for, or who I thought did it. I sent a copy of the police report and dispute letters in, three days later it was all off my report. |
