Paypal limited but ebay still intact (for now) - where to go from here
 

Hey all. My PP account got limited (asking for invoices and such) but my ebay account is still intact, for now. Some idiot filed a dispute for a non-ebay transaction and PP saw it fit to limit the account anyway and ask for invoices etc. for all my ebay items too. The accounts are not linked, I have just been sending invoices after the auctions are completed. The account is pre-2007, with 500+ positive feedback. I am considering a clean break with Paypal and am wondering what would be the best payment processor to use from now on. I am tired of these thugs and thieves and don't want to mess around with stealth Paypal accounts if I don't have to. (Stealth ebay accounts are fine, and I plan to use those once I'm done doing what I need to do with this account and then dropping it).

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. :thumb:

Paymate or CCnow are good alternatives to paypal especially if your account is pre-2007 with high feedback

Yeah I am looking at both of those. I do sell vero items from time to time which is my only concern. I think I will use multiple merchant accounts and have CCNOW for the little Paypal babies that absolutely must use Paypal and throw a hissy fit and **** all over your feedback if you don't offer it.

Man Google or somebody needs to make an auction site and put ebay in its place. This BS is driving me to drink.

Well this is an interesting development. Paypal just sent me an email basically saying "We aren't going to look further into the matter because it was an off-ebay transaction." But, my account is still limited. Fortunately it's just the "send invoices plz" limitation and not the 180-day limitation. So I may still get it unlocked if I play my cards right.
