eBay App Telephone Banned?

[ff3508]

Has anyone created a new eBay account recently? i keep getting banned after trying to verify a phone number to list an item for sale. Do I need to buy something first to build some record?

I tried using TextNow, TextPlus, Textme, Textfree apps for the numbers. Do these numbers still work? After I verified the codes, it says unable to verify and I need to contact eBay.

I contacted them on chat and two separate attempts an agent helped me to get verified. I then put up a listing but one hour later I got suspended. Again this happened on two attempts with two different accounts. I used new IP, new addresses, new phone, new everything.

The 3rd time I tried I had eBay call me to verify. Took 30min for them to call my number but I missed the phone call and when I tried to reach back this time through chat. While I was on chat with an agent my 3rd account got suspended. I was in middle of chatting with the agent and it seemed we got interrupted midway.

Again do those app numbers still work or is eBay just autobanning them now??

Any help be appreciated. Thank you.

Well back then like 3 years ago they worked. Now it doesn't seem to work cause I think I'm getting autobanned. I was able to get the codes to verify but after I entered the codes I get a message that says something like unable to verify contact ebay.

Those apps are highly abused and it's been known for years that they are a problem

Thanks Saijin,

Do you know any alternatives to get the phone number verification done?

Buy a tracfone

[ff3508]

Thanks cardfelone. never heard of tracfone will look it up.

I buy mine off of Amazon Prime. This isn't necessarily the cheapest option but to me it is the safest. All of my accounts that I have been creating lately have been getting 1000/10,000 limits. No guarantee it helps get those limits but find items outside the normal box and you will get better results.

can you share a link where in Amazon? They don't seem to have them when I type tracfone. I just need the sim card and 1 month prepaid plan right cause I have my own phone.

The plan I'm looking at is $15/month. https://www.tracfone.com/shop/plans

The representative said I can change my phone number free too as long as it is active. Thanks again for your help cardfelon
