eBay suspended all my accounts
 

I had about 15 accounts setup- all with new phone numbers, debit cards, and ip addresses. All my accounts were shut down this morning and I have a good guess why:

All of my debit cards were registered to my own physical address. So when I went to start a selling account with eBay and registered my card- I put down my address as the billing address. So all my accounts billing address was the same.

I'm assuming this is the reason my accounts were linked and all shut down simultaneously. If this is the case how do I get around this? Can I legally lie to the debit card issuer/bank and change my address for a few minutes to a faulty one so the faulty billing address would work? Any input would be greatly appreciated and welcome.

BTW- Yes, I have read the Stealth Guide and have been a long-time "stalker" on the forums. Thanks in advance :)

You need to pay your ebay seller fees with paypal and confirm your paypal with a bank account. It might take a few days or instantly, but it's worth the wait and then you can sell. You can also buy walmart gift cards and try to sell that way which it lets you put whatever address you want.

On debit cards you won't be able to change the address. Only some prepaid cards let you do that like netspend. You got linked for having the same address on 15 accounts for sure probably.

did you give ebay/paypal the address that was on the pre paid card?

/quote I put down my address as the billing address. So all my accounts billing address was the same.

You can't be doing that - have to remain stealth. You CAN change the address for each debit card to match your stealth info - but useless now but for future....

15 accs - that sux

just use vcc in future and keep everything seperate...

Wow.

Sorry. 15 accounts is a ton of work.

You cannot have any matching information at all.

To get started buy an account from one of the sellers here so you can see how it works.

Then work on creating your own account by using a VCC from one of the sellers here so you can learn to process.

15 accounts and such a simple mistake... wow!

I am truly sorry!

I takes good work to keep 10 accounts of radar..

I am working and running more accounts right now then I ever have and believe me I check, double check and triple check every move.

When you do get running again you really need to check your work and make sure everything you do has a reason.

So let me double check here...

I can use a debit card (say from my bank) and change the address through there to the faulty one (legally?) then after I'm done setting up a seller account I can change the billing address on file with my bank back to my physical address? Thus, eBay would have different billing address (nothing linking me)

My question now is which is the best way in your opinion to pay for eBay fees? Should I go to walmart and get the gift cards or what? Sorry, I'm a newb and have read eBay stealth but just a little confused. Thanks for all your help so far :)

It does not show you purchased the stealth book. Maybe this can be cleared up but when you buy the book an icon is shown that you did and yours does not.

You really need to spend a ton of time reading more here as the answers as this has been answered tons of times.

No one is going to spoon feed you all of the answers to your problems only having 2 feedback.

Not to be rude but the answers to these are in many posts here. You have to be willing to put in the time to learn.

You can't change a debit card address only some. Like netspend and greendot you can change for a few minutes just to get passed ebay and paypal. Not everyone. Yes, walmart giftcards might work. Buy 1 and try it and see if it works. Best way to pay ebay fees is paypal.

ACE is another prepaid debit card that allows you to change the address,in fact ACE you can activate and change the info online!And of course WalmartMoneyCard which is the same company as Greendot

you will need to start all over again , too risky now for you mate

Just pay the fees with paypal and use a giftcard to lift limits and attach bank account. Funny thing is I always paid my fees but when i got an account suspended ebay actually owed me money. They paid up too, even if the account was suspended

How did you get ebay to pay up?
I have credit balances on 3 suspended accounts, one of the credits is $317...
