What if ....

[stanislav]

Simple question ....

How long will it take for Paypal or eBay to find out if I was to link Paypal account to an eBay account while each of them having different names and address from each other?

Is there any way that I can change info on eBay account to match my Paypal without being flagged?

The very first day I list on linked accounts they get suspended.

And that's Fandango's experience on this matter.

i have a different experience than Fandangokango, in my endless experiments days it worked, but it doesn't last

[stanislav]

Well I think I should try and see if it works, right?

[FandangoKango]

Yea, try it just don't invest alot in it since it will go down.

Sometimes it is best to let sleeping dogs lie. I have been doing something interesting. My paypal account has several different email addresses. I make it a point to clear my tracks after using either ebay or paypal. I have found that just giving the new email address to ebay lets me continue to use the same paypal account that was associated with a no longer registered ebay account. Should I be waiting for the next shoe to fall?

You might get away with a mismatched address (no guarentees), but a name match is a must.

It could last for some time but (like Fandango said), we have enough `what ifs`to deal with on eb platform so why more?

i second the different emails approach. It works for me too.

Try this.
Create a new email address.
The true test is to have access to a premier/business paypal account with a different name & address (not different country)
Add this email address to the premier/business paypal account that was associated with a suspended ebay account.
Confirm email address and assign it in paypal as your primary email address.
Do the usual cleaning of cookies, super cookies & cache.
In ebay account settings, change the paypal account email address to the new email address.
List an item for sale.
Feedback appreciated.
