Activity: 0% Longevity: 38% | | How are you guys making new uk accounts ?
I’ve been on eBay for a long time and thought I knew most of the stealth techniques.
However recently maybe 2 out of 100 uk accounts I tried to make stayed up . All get banned after I make my first listing which I usually put as a low risk item under £10 . I’ve been using fresh device , fresh number , fresh identify and still no luck .
Can anyone who’s been having more luck than me point me in the right direction please .

I wait a couple days from account creation to listing , in some accounts I even waited a week or two while browsing too .

And I have been using different bank accounts each time , recently I have been using different Airwallex accounts .
I suspect that maybe the issue is my ip address?

Ditch the airwallex accounts. Switch to Wise if you prefer non-traditional banking providers. 23-08-01 and 60-84-64 sort codes work well as of late. I have 1+ year old accounts with them no issues whatsoever. You might run into some SoF verifications on Wise but they are easy.
AirWallex are flagged as hell.

I assume you're trying to make business accounts? Otherwise why waste banks when you don't need to add them from the outset? - wait till the account has passed the initial test first

Since I keep getting insta banned off first product other than Mac and device fingerprints I can’t seem to think of what else it could be .

How about this :
1. reformat your computer completely or get a new laptop for cheap
2. IPBurger residential Static IP
3. use firefox browser
4. Put your bank info in or your CC.
don't list for a week.
then do a 7 day auction for a brand new clothes hanger with new photos taken by your camera or phone. On the phone, strip all the digital info, transfer photos to laptop.
Start auction at $5
Don't use the eBay app ever.

It's repeatedly using the same device that is causing your issues.
Ebay tracking is far more sophisticated than it was in years gone by.
