My eBay accounts should be linked, but only 1 of my accounts has been restricted

[Zak412134]

So I was restricted on 2nd Jan for being below standard. But I also had two other accounts running at the same time but so far I havent had these accounts restricted.

Out of these remaining two accounts one has 2 feedback when I sold a couple of items in December, and the other one is due to go below standard in the next evaluation.

Now before I get ahead of myself - shouldnt have eBay restricted these accounts at the same time? I'm definately not logging back into them just in case.

Absolutely not a given that will or does happen.

May happen at the same time as the first issues or not for quite a long time.

At some point, you may need to sign in to check the status.

Don't do that until you really want to, however.

UPDATE:

I got indefinitely restricted on the 2nd and now almost 2 weeks later I still have my 2 eBay accounts working fine. They are definitely linked by everything you can think of - IP, Address, Name etc.

The only thing I can think of is when I fell below standard I used my brothers old account. He didn't have the password for it so I called ebay to get it changed. The guy on the phone said oh you have this account linked to another account is told him that was my brother and we have the same forename and surname. So if he manually unlinked the accounts I don't know.

It took them 10 months to get one of mine for being linked to a suspended account but they got it in the end, they always do.

Make the most of it while you can but be prepared as it can go down at any time from now on.

Even if it got removed 'manually' the link exsists still.

You may now be operating with a time bomb.

Not feasible to say when the account may go done.

Usually it does.
