Hit again

[Layer Cake]

I want a long term, permanent solution now (if one exists!) with Paypal. New account got limited for going over the £1900 limit.

I sell genuine non vero items but I'm well and truly blocked in my real details. I've set up a new account at my brothers 100 miles away with a variation of my name and a slight change in DOB.

I have the stealth info to supply. And more importantly, will they bother me about id again? I can supply genuine information for everything else they ask later on. I'm not selling crappy items, and everything will be 4.9 stars or above on ebay long term it is just this id thing. Can't do stealth really because of the amount going through it, it needs to come into an account associated with my business as I will inevitably get inspected by the VAT man in the next few years Cheers.

Cheers.

This is wrong OP.

Several points - first of all the VAT man will have no way of knowing that you are using stealth accounts - your bank statement will just say Paypal (and you can lose those funds elsewhere if you are so minded)

The VAT man will have no interest whatsoever in the fact that you are trading under another name. He only becomes interested if you EVADE your tax liabilities. Obviously you are not proposing to do that so there is no problem in law to you having a stealth account.

This is just my opinion. I am not a lawyer

OK Granny, I'll try this week.

This is a clean business of mine so no worries there, Then managed to get my whole family and an employee linked to me with their accounts I was using Basically been a nightmare, it was part of the game but this is a longstanding business of mine which is losing £££ in unsold stock because I can't dump on ebay when it sells nowhere else
