Default National Insurance Number - UK eBay & Paypal
Hi,

This has been covered/discussed multiple times. But never a conclusion has been reached nor a user experience has been shared..

Just a simple question.. has anyone put in an incorrect NI number (that doesnt tie to the name on the account) only for ebay to reject it?

As mentioned by some users - HMRC do not share their database with eBay so it is unlikely that there are any 2 way checks.

Can anyone share their experience?

What I did was take my actual NI and swap out all the numbers, they don't have two way checks, just like they don't have a way to check the name on your bank account.

eBay do the bare minimum to comply with regulations, keep that in mind.

With any bank account, names of the eBay & bank account don't have to match.

They don't have the means to / or care to check, they simply want to comply to regulations, change it to anything you like, I'd recommend finding a real NI as an example and swapping a few numbers around
