Should I pay or No?
 

My ebay account has had this in the sellers dashboard area for a few years now, it does stop me from trying to list items but lets me buy stuff with this account. If I pay the money owed on this account which is mine, will they allow me to sell again?

Yeah, you should pay, IMO. Accounts are worth their weight in gold in 2025.

Was worried that if I paid they wouldnt let me sell again.

Re: Should I pay or No?
 

I've had that kind of restriction lifted before by paying the balance (also, if you search, a lot of other members here have had the same experience). The fact that they haven't perma-banned you makes me think your chances of reinstatement are good.

Re: Should I pay or No?
 

Hope so , it is not letting me into the personell address area etc and my phone number is differnt so we shall see, guess its a gamble.

As is everything in this industry :thumb:

Re: Should I pay or No?
 

OH DEFINITELY pay it.... plus you owe them this anyways so it's the right thing to do.

You'll get your acc back after

I have had quite a few "light blocks" over the years when payment of fees hasn't gone through - either because cc had changed or even bank account was closed - one time payment of fees owed has always got my accounts back in selling standing - just my own experience

Re: Should I pay or No?
 

u can additionally verify it with their support
like whether u gonna have any kind of restrictions in place after paying off the outstanding balance
it's highly unlikely that they not gonna allow u to sell again tbh

Re: Should I pay or No?
 

Read again agent - OP has buying privileges still possible. Account is not useless.

Re: Should I pay or No?
 

I am asking 'further restriction'?
Now she/he cannot sell ,so further restriction would be she cannot buy .

Re: Should I pay or No?
 

So did you pay, or what?

Re: Should I pay or No?
 

Ok - good to clarify.

Re: Should I pay or No?
 

If she cannot sell or buy,what good is the account?

Re: Should I pay or No?
 

Pay it, they will subsequently reinstate your account and you'll be able to use it right away.

Keep your account in good standing, be sensible with account activity moving forward, you will be fine.

They won't take your money and ban you on the spot, although I understand having that concern with companies like this..

Kind of an old post to be commenting on - about 7 months old...not really worthy of unearthing

Re: Should I pay or No?
 

It may be time to reconsider the PM requirements...

Re: Should I pay or No?

Re: Should I pay or No?
 

There are some uk stealth providers here: http://www.aspkin.com/forums/ebay-accounts-sale/

Add a card to pay for the fee.

Looks like someone is defrosting their sleeper account :spy:

Re: Should I pay or No?
 

Quite poignant sax4 :lol: something's up

Re: Should I pay or No?
 

The account has been restricted from selling,but it can still buy.
so further restriction?what more can they restrict?
Buying privilege ,read !!
There is no guarantee your selling privilege would be restored,depends on why you are restricted,depends on your feedback,disputes,violation like selling counterfeits,slow in shipping,too many returns.

Re: Should I pay or No?
 

Are you doing a self-note? :lol:

Re: Should I pay or No?
 

Agent, the OP said in the first post that the account was put on hold for non-payment. It's very straightforward and is the easiest kind of restriction to get past. He never came back so I assume it all worked out for him.


:cheer:

Re: Should I pay or No?
 

Ebay has in some cases said pay and your account will be open,but not so.

:noidea:hopefully

Re: Should I pay or No?
 

All's I'm saying is that it never happened for me that way. :coffee:

Re: Should I pay or No?
 

To be honest though, one time I cleared my account it had a small outstanding balance of ~£200 to pay, but I feel like it leaves a bad taste in their mouth.

The account was later restricted without anyways to reinstate it and I followed my usual business practices, which leaves me to believe this may have played a part in the swift restriction as they make look at it as you are a lesser trustworthy individual - its all about risk management I feel.

If you have the means, it's best to start fresh unless the account is truly of value to you

Re: Should I pay or No?
 

For me, it's been the same - if I have been delinquent on fees, whenever I pay up, I've been reinstated.

That being said, my overdue fees have never been more than $20
