Address for new account
 

Hi guys,

First post on here for a few weeks.

I have finally rented a storage mail box and wanna see if you guys approve of this.

Lets say i have rented box number 11 at the following address -

12-15 smith road,
Storage King,
City,
Post code,

I was thinking of going for an address like this,

B11, 1215 smith road
City,
Post code,

Do you guys think this ok to list as my ebay and paypal address? Or do they both look into address's and see that 1215 smith road isnt an actual address and shut the accounts down.

I'm asking cos i dont wanna make 2 accounts from this address to see them shut down. :doh:

well 1215 isnt a real address, so why use that seeing as its actually a real place you are renting? Use the real address. You dont have to use storage king necessarily, just the address bit and unit 11, maybe....

you could get another address out of it perhaps, maybe for one account use 12 (door ) and for another use the 15....

you could have flat 11 or office 11 for the other account...

I mean if you slip up on cookies IP, sell some heinous product on both accounts that gets complaints etc etc, someone might manually look you up on both accounts, so its never 100% but if you have lower risk, good service accounts, it could work fine...

Thanks for the reply. I am planning on selling vero items so maybe this is risky? Also when i sell a certain amount of goods i will be required to send in verification documents. Is it likely at this point that my accounts would run into trouble over there address's?

You said i could make 2 accounts, one using the 12 (door) and one using the 15. Would i be ok making 2 accounts per door number? So i would have a total of 4 accounts from this one address?

If i where to do this would i be best using 2 totally different names or just 2 variations of my own name?

I have been so lax over this i really need to pull my finger out!

yep, why not? get box first and send letters to all desired formats, and see if any probs with it, then you can go ahead.

boxes tend to want real name, youll have to check what they allow, a variation wouldnt be a prob. some allow an aka or business name, and some want proof of the business or no deal...depends

Very very strange. I have just attempted to create a ebay account then and its saying i already have an account to the email address. I create the email address a few weeks ago but i dont think i linked it to any ebay.

I requested for it to send my details to this email address and nothin comes through!

I have probably flagged this address now havnt i?

its a potential flag yes, or a glitch, I mean if you dont remember doing it maybe you didnt...

example of glitch like this is Ive registered on sites (not to do with ebay) and it says email already in use etc, no way is it possible, Ive only just heard of that site today....glitch perhaps

Maybe i am best making a new variation of the address and start again ya think?

Would i need to get a new phone number aswell? Brand new number goin to waste it looks like.
