| yaw1800 | 12-18-2008 05:46 PM | i think it depends on the volume of selling |
i sell in very large volume but never have a phone call
do you use ebay.com because i use ebay UK |
| ebaysuc | 01-14-2009 12:17 PM | Is possible to use toll free number for us ebay verification? On the enter phone number page, there is no room for entering the +1
only this -> (XXX) XXX-XXXX |

| daboss | 02-09-2009 11:26 AM | Does the Pay as you go method work for us Canadian Residents ???? |
| lotsof baskets | 02-10-2009 05:40 PM | Daboss,
Do you mean pay as you go cell phones? If yes, they work for ebay and not for paypal. Paypal will send a letter to the address on file. |
| Freedom | 03-07-2009 02:52 PM | so what do you use for paypal or just avoid them completely? |
| sick-bay | 03-12-2009 05:21 PM | I depends what PP checks when confirming a phone nr.
I found it rather easy to get Ma Bell to install a new land line at my house under any name. For example for a student who is renting a room at my place.
They never asked for a SSN or other credentials, only once thay required a deposit, since the customer would be under 18 . Then that numer will be listed in the diectory under the student's name and my addres.
EB and PP can call that number and the student would answer.
BUT: MY ADDRESS IS LINKED WITH A SUSPENDED ACCOUNT
The only question is: Do they just call to get you on the phone?
or do they do a reverse directory search?
And when they do that, do they just match the directory name wth the PP account name? or do they also match the ADDRESS?
You'd need to know these answers before deciding how to set up your thing.. |
| yaw1800 | 03-12-2009 08:32 PM | they call through landline to confirm that you most likely have an actual household...
if they did a reverse directory, everyone who lived in an apartment complex would be linked lOl |
| sick-bay | 03-14-2009 05:37 PM | Thanks
then we'll make sure the student always answers the phone |

| Freedom | 03-21-2009 12:31 PM | is tracfone no longer working? Got this message.
Sorry! We're currently experiencing technical difficulties and are unable to complete the process at this time. |
| doughboykilla | 03-22-2009 12:27 AM | Na they couldnt block tarcfones think about how many poor broke americans use these phones for every day use. |
| Freedom | 03-22-2009 10:18 AM | tracfone doesn't appear to be working... I was surprised. |
| king02 | 03-28-2009 07:09 AM | I plan on going to get a tracfone or att go phone . does the tracfone or att go phone still work? |

Tracfone does not work with paypal verification when your account is limited. They will tell you that you need a landline or they will mail you a pin number to the address on file with paypal. |
| Tmeswon | 04-05-2009 05:41 PM | I am a little worried becasue i was going to use a tracfone to pass the home verification to lift my limit on paypal |
| lakeman | 04-05-2009 05:59 PM | You said nothing about using it on a limited account. I haven't tried a prepaid phone to try and get a limited account unlimited. I have only verified ebay and paypal accounts with it, so I'm not sure. |
| GreenBean | 04-05-2009 06:04 PM | ^^^ Tmeswon, look in the subscribers' area at the Means to An End thread. All the info was updated by aspkin several hours ago.
Please try to post exactly what you want to do: otherwise the answers get confusing.:peace: |
| skyichigo | 04-08-2009 08:56 AM | Does we need a prepaid phone numbers for every single @@@@ account just in case they ask for phone verification?
Thanks |
| lakeman | 04-08-2009 09:03 AM | Yes you should have a working phone number for every account you are actively selling on. |
| michro01 | 04-11-2009 10:06 AM | Since this thread is so spread out over like 3 years, can somebody post an update of what services currently work with offering phone number verification for ebay/ paypal? |
