Need a new temp account.

Current ebay account is in good standing although this latest evaluation i have fallen 0.2% over the threshold for buyer protection cases closed by ebay(i have been too busy to look at these, my fault)

anyway, i need a new account for a month, just wondering what phone service i should buy for a new landline? also what card i should pump money into that phone service with?

any help asap would be super

thanks

Soho66 is one. Allows you to divert the numbers to your mobile. Easy phone verification..

Yeah soho66 is a cheapest option I believe.

Theres also TTNC.

Both give you landline numbers with whatever area code you desire and can be diverted to your landline or mobile.

Soho66 costs £2 per number and an additional charge of £5 calling credit is needed to divert the numbers.

Extremely cheap compared to other providers.

Thanks. Which virtual card should u use to pay for the phone service? Once linked to my current paypal account will I still have to wait 90 days for free the cash? And will there be a limit on amount of eBay transactions etc?

Thanks all

You don't have to use a virtual account.. You can use any credit and debit card to pay for it.. If you want to use one however there is a large range of cards to choose from.
In answer to your question if you verify yourself with the phone technique/VCC and your bank account that will lift your limits. However i would advise that you don't set up an account and start selling loads of things. You have to build it up slowly.. You will need a premier or a business account with Paypal if you intend on selling a lot of things.. Bare in mind that later on you may have to provide proof of delivery, invoices and additional ID so keep everything!

Good Luck

I personally wouldn't use " Soho66 " had to many problems before with registering and diverting phone numbers, also they have a unique payment system as they like to charge you for numbers you never received access to!
