As far as I can see there is absolutely no way around ID verification I wouldn't fancy having several thousand in payment reserves and Etsy suddenly decides to shut your account down because of a ⊗⊗⊗⊗ name
Ive tried using my initial instead of full name and changed my address on my ID also using an anti detect browser
The only way I can see them shutting these account down is if someone looks at them manually
I aint going anywhere near any product with any kind of I.P right or Trademark this time
Its going to be a nail biting couple of months |
If your account gets banned with a payment reserve you'll get your payout to bank account on file after 6 months.
Although any cases opened up against you while banned are auto-won in the customers favour and the total sale amount will be deducted from whatever is in escrow.
I know this because I got banned selling TikTok likes. Made like £3k in my first month, got banned, then two opportunist scammers refunded like £30-50 worth of orders. But I got the rest of the money.
For the record for anyone else reading this. Selling SMM Services on Etsy is hella strict and not worth it. My store lasted nearly 2 months but that's because I skirted by without any reports or cases with excellent customer support and giving refunds anytime something went slightly wrong. Just avoid this and focus on building something proper. |
