PayPal limited so ebay fees not paid
 

I got limited last week and I am in the process of getting the invoices uploaded to paypal.
Today I got an email from Ebay that the monthly bill is not getting pay by paypal..
Have you guys ever seen were paypal limits the account and not pay Ebay..
Your help will be appreciated..
Joe

Send eBay a check if you don't have a credit card. There are no other ways.

I would'nt pay them anything untill your account is unlimited. I'm guessing your an honest seller and if thats the case give ebay NOTHING! untill they release your limitations.

Thanks
 

Thanks guys for your comments, every comment is appreciated.
I already uploaded all of the request made by paypal yesterday.
Invoices, Suplier information, Business information, and new phone number.
I m hoping they clear the limitations today.

Do you guys think is best to call them today and let them know that i need the limitations lifted to pay ebay for their fee's.
The account was limited with $2,300.00 out of that i have to pay Ebay approx $600.00 in fee's for 3 accounts...

whats my best bet here?
Thanks
Joe

Account Close.
 

After providing all of the documents requested by Paypal, I got this Email today.
All of my items are legit and I buy from a legit business. I am not sure what happend N they are not telling.

The account was running fine till i decided to sale international.
Many International buyers are Thiefs, they hund on sellers shipping USPS first class with limited shipping and then open a Claim that the item never arrived.

I had 3 claims in the last 3 months and I had to refund each one of them.
when i realize that it was a waste of time i stoped selling international, till the last claim showed up, I got limited the same day.
Here is the letter for those that care..

Yeah you're done with this account. You cannot use it with eBay. If you link another PP to your eBay it will be limited too. If this is a good eBay account with alot of feedback, you might want to consider other payment methods. Paymate, ProPay, Moneybookers etc.

eBay buyers love PayPal though, so if your sales take a big hit, you may just have to go stealth all the way.

Sorry, it really does suck when they do this. A lot of us are here for the same reason. Not selling anything underground or doing anything wrong. Just PayPal being PayPal. Frustrating to say the least.

As noted above, its time to get the stealth book and move on. My biggest regret was waiting almost a year after I got screwed to get into stealth. Jump in now. The sooner you get it up and learn the system, the sooner you can bring the money back in.

Whether your honest or not...

ebay fees are designed to be paid with payment from buyers, as was the original plan of business..... yeah, don't pay them a DIME until you get paypal resolved

Always keep a backup account ready :)

Thanks guys for your input.
I am calling Paypal on Monday an see if I can get them to pay for the Ebay's Fee's.
The Idea is to salvage the Ebay accounts.
I have not anything unusual on ebay.. I cancel all of my listings to avoid any kind of new issues with paypal.
Maybe I should open a new account with another paying service like google and add them to my ebay account..
What do you all think about that and can you recommend any other payment service..
Thanks
Joe

They wont. If account is limited, its limited.

Well you can't use Google on eBay, at least not directly. You will have to be "creative" if you want to take Google Checkout.

Also, if you really want to salvage the eBay account, you can pay your fees with a credit card.

Yeah,
Thats what I am thinking. My concern is after I pay for the Ebay fee that Ebays decides to cancel or limit my account. :ban?:
I read here that Ebay like to play it safe, they will keep you running till youi pay the fee, then they drop the AXE. :rip:

I had a good thing going with Ebay, Paying them $500.00 to $1000.00 in fees every month.
I shipped my items the same or next day max.
I gave more than one credit when i did not have to just to keep the account in good standing.
I took return Items for the same reason above and look what they do to me..:deadhorse:

Now I am an EBAY SUSPENDED REFUGEE,

I MUST GO UNDERGROUND.
:ninja:

Is your eBay account in good standing even though paypal is limited? I have/had this problem. I pay the fees on eBay via gift card - eBay is still good to go. Haven't been banned. I just use different payment processor - or try.

Hi,
Thanks for your post..
I got three ebay accounts conected to the paypal account that was suspended.
The balance in one of he account is $300.00, $98.00, $150.00
I was thinking at firt that paypal will pay this balance since the account they limited has approx $2000.00 in funds.
But somebody here told me that paypal will not pay any funds while the account is limited..
The Ebay accounts seem to be in good standing, I log in everyday and everything is normal..
I am thinking about paying Ebay to save the accounts..
Trying to gather as much information from
you guys before i make a move....
Thanks to all for your advice..
Joe

Try not to post across different subforums joethezeus - people will answer but don't go all post happy =)

Well if you have 3 eBay accounts all going to the same PP account. Keep in mind they are all LINKED so if you pay one and not pay the other two, you might end up suspended.

Whatever you decide to do, keep in mind that eBay has all your accounts linked. If you have 3 sellers accounts, they know it because its all going to the same PP. It sounds like you tried hard to keep these accounts going, so they sound like good accounts that do not face suspensions.

BUT that being said, eBay is eBay and you might be suspended at the drop of a dime for no reason at all!

If you do pay, just open a Moneybookers or Paymate account and PP invoice manually through PP or 2CO or something of that nature. NOBODY ON EBAY WANTS TO PAY WITH ANYTHING OTHER THAN PAYPAL. eBay has brainwashed 90% of eBay buyers to thinking PayPal is the only safe payment method in the world. BOTTOM LINE: Your sells will go down significantly if you do not accept PayPal somehow.

Well said smithgroup - stress the fact that your merchant processor WILL accept paypal.

Thanks for the advice guys. This forum is a safe Haven for Suspended Refugee's like me..
Without your information I will be lost...
I have decided to pay ebay their fee's, just trying to make up my mind on the best and safest method to pay them, in othe words what gift card to use..

Joe

Not a problem - hope it all works out for you.

OK guys, Last question on this subject.
I have 1 paypal account in my name, link to 3 ebay accounts in my name.(limited paypal only)
My wife has 1 paypal account in her name link to 1 Ebay account, also in her name.
My wife accounts are fine and not linked to MY paypal account that got limited.

My question is the following: Before my Paypal account got limited I never worry about using the same IP address with my wife account and my account,
Now that my paypal account got limited, should i use a new IP with my wifes account?

My concern with using a new IP with my wife Paypal account and Ebay is that it my red flag me and get the phone call.
If I keep on logging in to her account with the same IP as my limited account they will link her account to my Paypal LImited!!
Or you all think that since i been using the same ip for the two paypal account for the last year I am already linked?

I need your advice on this guys...
Also, am looking forward to buying the Ebay Stealth book, what do you all think abou the book and has it help you guys?
Thanks
Joe

Update.
 

Here is an update...
My main paypal account was suspended and I am still waitting for the 6 months for them to refund me the money they kept over 2k.
The other three accounts linked to this account were suspended becuase i did not pay the monthly fee..
They stayed open till the payment was past due.

My other Ebay account and paypal account were left untoach for approx two months. I kept on selling and pulling the money out of paypal every 24 hours to avoid getting screw by this *******s.
Out of This two accounts only the Ebay account was suspended because it was linked by Email with one of the other ebays accounts on top, However my paypal account linked to this last Ebay account still up and running and I am using it for my sales with other sites..

I just dont see how this is possible?
I am possitive that if I had paid the balance on the Ebay account I will have saved them because the suspenssion from paypal did not affect them at all..

Joe

Here's another piece of info for you to bear in mind. NEVER attach paypal to ebay to allow them to pay your fees. Read this thread thro' & see how helpful it is for the future.
It's another proactive way for we refugees to beat paypal/ebay :fight:.
I am sorry about this problem.
