Re: We noticed some significant changes to your account activity.
every body or at least 80% of stealth using VPN ....
so you mean that you removed your VPN, supplied docs and then they removed the limit ? |

Re: We noticed some significant changes to your account activity.
I hope you do but, I've never survived this. I had given PayPal docs as legit like it was from The Great Library of Alexandria, yet they still burned my accounts.
I have a suspicion that this would not occur if you had been uploading tracking.
I upload tracking these days and have managed to avoid this so far. Just make sure you're not hurting your eBay accounts when you upload tracking. |

If they just want me to verify my tracfone number and tell them where I get my items or something that is no problem. I am only selling used legos. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Lego-by-the...AAAOSwd4tUCm0u

Is that your account with 14k feedback? |

| So how did you get around the paperwork just using a hotspot and they stopped asking for this? |

I decided to call in. I knew that was taking a big chance because it is make it or break it once you have them on the phone for something like that. But I figured with the things they were asking for, I had nothing to lose as I could not provide them.
Essentially I sweet talked my way out of needing to provide any docs using a bit of small talk and a bit of charm. They put me on about a 7 minute hold to I assume look further into my history and usage. Digging for anything fishy.
But I had covered all my bases and done things properly in terms of stealth, leaving a nice and neat trail.
They simply gave me a tongue lashing about using a VPN (only thing they could find), saying it is against their TOS (even though I know millions of ppl use them while at places that require them such as work, University, etc). I gladly accept this and apologized for using it and assured them I would not in going forward.
The rep said nothing else was required and I was good to go, and that was that!
I rolled the dice and it worked |

| Sounds like a fairy tale. I used fresh home IP addresses and fresh everything, and still got pummeled. And they don't seem to want to do business although I provide perfect documentation. |

Re: We noticed some significant changes to your account activity.
So are you saying that using a VPN is the reason some of the accounts get toasted? |

Re: We noticed some significant changes to your account activity.
Muzzie regardless of what it sounds like it is what happened to me. Who knows what happened to you. Our situations are not the same and sounds like were not approached as such. 1 - you address in a different country which introduces a whole other set of issues. 2 - how in the world are you providing documentation on a (presumably) stealth acct and thinking that is going to work? |

Re: We noticed some significant changes to your account activity.
Kajunrook, I have no idea. Just relaying what the rep told me. I haven't even dug into their TOS to confirm whether that is true or not. It likely is, asking with a lot of other things they could but choose not to crack down on.
So my personal opinion of whether VPN is the reason most accounts get toasted is no. But is it a reason they COULD toast you if they otherwise wanted to, yes. |

Yes you are right, depending on what docs it is they are asking for |

| In EU, there are no SSNs that can be easily checked, so the documentation question is pretty much solvable. Regarding invoices - that is also something PP can't really check (especially for items that are purchased privately few years ago), so no problems with it either. So they check other things that, in their experience, cause most problems. Also, as my friend from PP said, they know if they will kick you out, BEFORE you submit the documentation. So if they decided to do so - documentation does not matter. But if they want you to stay - they will carefully check the documentation and ask additional questions, if everything is ok with it, or just leave you in peace. |

I have the same issue |
