Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

so i tried making 2 accounts today both got the 0/0
now i really think its a certain time they do this

earlier a day ago i mentioned i created 5 with no problems at all

today was not too good, maybe its a certain timing

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

Khan, all legit stuff like real bank, real prepaid phone and a credit card?

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

well, i never add bank until i know its an account that will last,
so pp not verified, only cc
addresses from whitepages
tethering for new ip
google voice, i know thats a total give away, but it worked on thursday when i created 5, which all had the 10/1000

i did create one morning time ,which worked, but after around 7 pm the next 2 i made were both 0/0

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

When you mean create, do you mean when eBay texts or calls you to verify you? Thanks. I have this experience too if you mean what I meant. I tried to activate it at 9:40pm.

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

yes, when im converting to seller account, this is when there texting

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

Were these accts sitting there to be aged for a month or are they accts that you created within a day or 2 then tried to receive the text?

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

On all the accounts I tried they were more than 3 mths I got 0/0

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

i usually convert to seller right away

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

Did u try any this morning just trying to see if it is a timing issue

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

tried one today, worked fine
unverified pp, with only cc
google voice
converted to seller, with 10/1000

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

ok was it kind of early in the day because now i am starting to think that's factor.

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

I just made 5 accounts without a 0/0 limit. This is what I do:

each ebay account has been aged for about a month or so. Corresponding paypal accounts are brand new.

use a fairly common name, look it up in white pages, note zip code corresponding to that name, then find an address on real estate website with same zip code.

-Use VERIZON HOTSPOT for IP address.
-Use TRACFONE to get phone number.
-Create paypal account with this name, address and phone number.
-Confirm email
-Add a VCC to paypal. CONFIRM the VCC.
-LINK ebay to paypal account.
-List first item. LOW RISK item.

I have not received a 0/0 limit since this whole thing began. Hope this helps.

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

tried another one, got the 10/1000

the most important factor of them all is make sure the name is matcing with at least the zipcode,

address is the most important

just to figure out the pattern i tried with a non corresponding zipcode, but everything else was the same method when i made the 10/1000.

got hit with the 0/0 then

i think they really upgraded their address verification system

when i go to white pages, it usually shows everything, full name and address

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

also if you pay more attention to the addreses, i can gurantee you, you can find out a way to make the 100/5000 limit accounts right away

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

Just for clarification khan, how many accounts have you created to base these conclusions?

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

That makes sense so basically it's a computer running a search and if a name doesn't match it flags it right of way. Sounds like a people search engine now! I will try matching a corresponding zip see what happens. Do you feel there is a real need to use a aged account or is it strictly just a verification issue?

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

I do not think it is necessary to used aged accounts. I do believe a new account will work.

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

This has happened for you?

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

I hope so because i need to get started Christmas is coming there has to be a solution to every problem i guess!!!!

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

yeah i got hit with 0/0 last night i thought i was for sure going to conquer it
i used a real address a common name, tracfone , ip that was only used for that acct. the acct was 3 mths old. Also my paypal had a vcc and i was sure of myself than got the 0/0 limit. I got hit 2 weeks ago with 2 accts and than that's all i been seeing sense.

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

I made around 15 this week, couldn't really make more, have college, but I think 15 is enough to track a pattern,

Well I just want you guys to know there is a way to get the 100/5000, but you guys really have to do some deep thinking, I don't want to post it, just in case it ever gets patched,

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

u can tell me pm i won't ruin it i am trying to make a living that's all lol

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

He mentioned is slightly earlier.. the address + matching name is what he is talking about.

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

Does the "deep thinking" involve a fight with your conscience as to the legality of your method?

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

I was thinking the exact same thing. There are many ways to do things, hope his way is a legal way.

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

I have made literally 50 accounts since May/June and have had 50% success rate. Same way I have been using for years (of course fine tuning here and there) with no problems. So something major changed. I have been having quite a few people asking for some help. So here it is.

Then I found two things, PHONE is a huge issue. If you do a reverse look up and they see a carrier such as bandwith.com and not a real carrier such as Att or sprint so on. Then you have a very high risk of it being a 0/0 limit account or getting the mc900 emails please call us to verify such and such.

Other thing is they have SERIOUSLY stepped up their game on the whole automated verification system. They obviously go off of a public database. They want to be able to at least find your name in the zip code that you say you are living in.

OK PEOPLE did you get that? It has been posted here on this very thread and others but here it is again. They want to know that the name is in the zip code. Now as far as 100/5000 limits and legality and so on. That is up to you. You wanna border on or out right mess with "identity theft" thats your own choice. I would NEVER advise it or do it.

That is not what we are suggesting or advising. I want to make that a point here. Thats not what I am saying.

Since changing to TRACFONE. And having the names match up to the zip codes i have had 99% success rate. And by that I mean I have opened 30 account. And 28 out of 30 have had 10/1000
The only reason the 2 got 0/0 limits in my opinion was I was trying something out with Apartment building addresses. The system obviously did not like it.

I hope this helps. I truly do I know it can be extremely frustrating. But you can not be scared to test the waters and dive in. Opening accounts and changing little things with a notepad next to you writing down every thing you do will help you come across the exact formula that will work for YOU time and time again. It may take 12-14 hour days for weeks, but it's worth it!

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

How to correct name with zipcode???

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

For correct name with zip code use the white pages just put a different home address like from real estate website but same zip.

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

I am thinking that the way eBay is checking is similar to how PP verifies your CC. As long as the zip on the CC matches the zip you gave to PP everything is cool (pretty sure that is correct). So maybe now this is applied to eBay.

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

I've searched and cannot find a solid answer.

Newer to stealthing, have created about 30 accounts over the past couple months that ended in 0/0(and many more that worked fine now sitting in wait).

Is it worth hanging onto those 0/0 accounts and checking up on them later? Has anyone noticed the SL changing after some time?

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

I have some 0/0 accounts still around and check up on them every once in a while. Unfortunately none of them have gotten a raise. But the PayPal part of them still work, so that is good!

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

Thanks Fox. I'm assuming I can't just link the pp to another account or can I?

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

No do not do that. At this point the PP can only be used as a standalone account. Do not link it to any other eBay accounts, bummer I know:mad2:

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

Theres actually some debate on this matter, since the ebay account technically isn't MC999'ed or suspended- it just doesn't have selling limits, and you are allowed multiple ebays per paypal. There was some discussion about this recently.

Is it worth it to create a new email and go through the steps of creating a new ebay account? Depends on how much you paid for the VCC/Vanillavisa :)

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

Great point. Never say never

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

Very Important info, i opened 10 accounts, real info, and i got hit on on 3 with o/o what i see in commmon is the middle name. i didnt' use it when i open the account even do all the rest on the info was fine. the other ones have only 1 name, so if you are trying to find names on white pages try to not get names with middle names. hopes this helps.

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

yea i have figured out how to get 10/1000 on all my accounts, but I need to figure out how to get at least 100/5000 on a few accounts. You guys are saying its something to do with the name and zip code so I'll have to pay with that tonight.

I'm going to make some tonight and play around with that...

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

not just addresses there is other aspects as well, try to break down their whole system step by step
Like how they accept you as a seller.

Good luck

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

I've been playing around with different ways to create a seller account successfully....so far without success. I was going to try MM79's method on page 9 of this thread, however I haven't figured out how to get to the page displayed in step 2. All avenues I've taken so far just bring me to the basic sign-in / sign-up page instead of the 'sign in to create a sellers account' / register page.

Any suggestions?
thanks

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

Go to the site map (bottom of the page), and it's somewhere in there under the selling section, or just google "create seller account ebay" and the first link will take you there.
