Thanks for the welcome & yeah i do have a story..
Not a hugley interesting one but a Story none the less & one that in hindsight i could/should have avoided..
I was attempting to donate to a specific Charity, without initially informing them as i wasn't really selling a great deal, eBay must have got a whiff of it, checked with the Charity & they suspended me & my Palpal Account..
My fault & a Schoolboy error for not contacting the Charity initially to advise them that i wanted to donate.
eBay a few weeks later on top of that said that there was a seperate Intelectual Property Rights infringement which there 100% wasn't, they couldn't provide any details except who it was who lodged the complaint, they gave me contact details of the people, i made contact three times without getting a response back, advised eBay this & never heard anything again from anyone..
It was a big Global Brand & it was a case of " Big Fish V Little Fish " in my opinion.
2 Months later Paypal limited my Account, this time without giving any details whatsoever, saying that i was sellign Counterfeit items, which i wasn't..
They limited my Account for 180 days & i have x amount of $$ sitting there which i can't access..
I'm sure there are a million of these Stories out there & many of them are on this Site..
Paypal automated Customer Service Emails didn't help in the slightest & eBay's Customer Service was also a Joke, i feel/felt incredibly let down by both but i shouldn't have been so naive..
Glad i found this Site anyway..
