New etsy account
 

Hi , I am new here so hopefully I do it right :)
Etsy question , so I got susspended a year ago, had 3 shops with them, suspended due to delayed orders, customer complains and cases. I was selling stickers. Now I want to open another shop, tried to open , new email address, new name ( my partner’s and his bank details) using my laptop and the internet from home which was used all the time, got suspended :(
Then I opened another from partner’s phone using mobile data , using a slightly different shop name and again all his details, it worked just at that stage, haven’t touched is since as I am afraid it will get susspended, so haven’t listed anything yet. Money is quite tight so I am not sure how that stealth thing works...
But my question is actually this :
If I were to go to friends house and work from there, like going to an office , to list the items there then take the orders, then come home and do them and so on, it’ll be hard but, will it work?
Or I can use my mum details and everything she lives in a different town and work from home, will that work ?
I am with Virgin in UK forgot to mention, don’t know how to change IP but can chage internet provider, again will that work?
I am quite desperate money is tight and I got so excited started to work with a designer have all this new stuff to make and it seems all in vain... thinking to open a website but that is even harder...
Please help any info will be highly appreciated...
I have read quite a few posts here but it is a bit confusing
Thank you all for your time reading this :)
Have a lovely day and good luck to all

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


First, list all your steps in account creation for proper analysis and discussion

Hi, if you’ve used your partners details and got suspended, using them again on this new account will also likely lead to suspension. Usually after making a few sales, Etsy take a closer look at the account and that’s when it could get suspended again.

Ideally you want all new details, a fresh username on laptop and a new IP address. For the IP you can use mobile data tethering which works great or use IP burger which is around £40 over 3 months. Just do not use your own WiFi as virgin will have the same IP address as before.
