mandatory MP registration

[hallow255win]

I have a US stealth ebay account that trigger the mandatory MP registration.
I have a US bank account with matching name, but obviously do not have a SSN to use.
Is there any alternative or creative solution to SSN?
What's the consequence if I choose to not use the ebay MP, aside from the fact that I cant upload new listing anymore?

If you don't enroll in MP the acct is pretty much useless. You wont be able to sell on it any longer.
Some have reported success enrolling using 'creative' methods. Do your research.

I think Im approaching this stage in my business as well. I dont think I will be able to keep using the account when they ask me to join MP. How much gross volume has your account done so far? Just want to know so I can have better plans. I already have 10 ebay High limits accounts seriously warming thoigh so I may as wel let it slide.

Get 'CREATIVE' with it. Unfortunately, this forum is not allowing to discuss more on that.
There is always a workaround. You just have to search for it.

It's a mini account with 500 listings/ roughly 1000usd sale per month.

They have asked me to enroll for weeks, at the moment my 500+ listings are still active as normal, but I can't list new listings anymore.

Do you mean that there's a deadline upon which they will shut down the entire shop?

What kind of dumbaass business idea for ebay is that: if you don't let me take additional 3% of your sale, you need to go to hell and I will give up all my 12% cut as well....
