Old Account of 2005.Just got reinstated with no limits!!!
 

This account is a real account.

This account was suspended due to a link account. The linked account had nothing much on it, was linked to my real account.

This was my very first account on eBay.
While I logged in, I noticed that I have a balance to pay of £30

I did ask eBay if I pay this balance, would my account be instated to buy and sell.
They did say a big "YES"
But my experience, eBay can never be trusted. They would do anything to get funds. The fee is due a buyer back in 2005 claimed item not received. I was new and naive and did not post it with a tracking number.

Also, I am not on that address anymore.
What are the options if I pay the £30 and get reinstated.
Changed my address to a rental service and make a new PayPal too.

End of the day. It is still a real account.

Ebay lie eternity!, they will tell you what they think you want to hear because that way you are more likely to pay them! It is impossible to be absolutely sure if they will or will not reinstate you if you pay up, all you can do is try it and see, always keeping in mind they are only really interested in getting that £30 off you.

They're telling lies just to get your money. When they get it, their note of speech would change drastically ;)

Update.


Normally I know they do lie. This has happened to my few of my accounts.

I have paid the invoice and have been reinstated.
I also checked my selling limits and it seem like I have no limits on it. (Hope so)

I am not at that address anymore. I moved in 2008.

So I have my real account.
Now I have to find a way to change the address and set a new paypal account.

These accounts were suspened for minor reasons. I do have hope I can work my way around it.

After nearly 10 years. It feels good to see my name on eBay. My very first account

I bet that they will suspend you in the nearest time for no reason. They got their money, and now can do anything.

Re: Old Account of 2005. Should I be bother to reinstate it?
 

Probably.

But since I have many accounts on board I can afford to lose one.

Also, the suspension was non paying for a small amount.
My PayPal account wasn't limited.

Just going to go very slow and steady with it.

Good luck! Army of ninjas will do the trick ;)

I guess only thing that saved this account is that I never touched since my suspension. So the IP address has never been a issue

Has mentioned. It was a minor thing that lead to a suspension.

Was nothing to do with my selling, or anything drastic.

But experience since I came to this forum 2008
I have more knowledge and know my way around

It is a Gold Mine account, but still going to be very very careful.

While this is good news...tread carefully...eB has been known to put the hurt back on after getting paid...all the best
