Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

hit my first 4 0/0's yesterday and today. out of roughtly 20 sucessful account setups.

local ips, and addresses in the same zip code, and one of the last name on the 0/0 was incredibly common, so i dont think its that. frustrating the get the 0/0 all now/in a row, when this thread was where i read to start.

the only thing i can think of is to just take a rest (i set up 3 at time, with 6 today/yesterday) and hope things get sorted out. OR just create ebay buyer accounts and let them marinate. probably that, since its knocking out a step anyway

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

got my first 5/500 account today. That was weird.

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

Was that from a 0/0 prowakeskater?

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

no, it was an immediate 5/500 account. first ever for me. maybe second... but they're extremely rare

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

When I got 5/500, it usually means that eBay don't trust you. You're listing could be way in the bottom under best match. Just be prepared that.

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

Funny out of my first 15 accounts, 2 of them were 5/500. They ended up lasting me a very long time. One of them is still going strong.

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

hmmm, never got a 5/500. Mine are always 10/1000 which sucks!!

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

what are peoples total recent account success/failure ratios? ive had 40 success/4 failure

if its a numbers only way i can figure would to be power through it (my failures only starte yeterday, or if its timing thing, then to just chill and work on other things (i have a bit of free time at the moment)

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

Sometimes I get this feeling that for a day or two eBay hands out 0/0 like its candy, then back to normal. I have no concrete evidence of this, just seems to come in waves.

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

No I don't see this kind of pattern for just 1-2 days...

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

I have been making several accounts daily. All times of the day since I found my method and have not had one 0/0. Its just a matter of finding the way that works for you and sticking to it.
I stated a few pages back the two keys that where what I had to alter in my method of making accounts that seemed to work for me.

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

LIsted a used shoes and it didn't ask for a pin verification my phone or text. (no limits shown)

Listed a 2nd pair and then it asked for pin verification and after I did it... 10/1000 limit

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

I'm getting the 0/0 limits after trying to list one item, could it be because I'm using the library computers?

It might sound stupid but I've never created stealth accounts before.

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

Also, this sounds sketchy and i don't want to do it but if i send them ⊗⊗⊗⊗ id information as well as billing information will that get me released?

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

I would read the guide, once you have done that you will easily be able to answer your question. In a nut shell, don't use those computers.

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

I get that feeling too that some days, the 0/0 just rain down. Other days, the 0/0 is minimal. Might have to do with the team leader that day, or how heavy the call-ins are.

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

I get 10/1000 everytime, no matter when I set up accounts.

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

Are you getting 10/1000 or 100/5000?

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

It could be the item you are trying to list.

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

I doubt it.
I never get the 0/0 accounts any more and I never list an item at all.
I think it has more to do with the steps taken and the computer/IP setup used

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

I strongly suggest that you get the stealth book read it a few times over. Take some notes and then re read this thread. Combining the two should really make you confident in opening stealth. If you have any more questions just ask!

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

I dont believe the item being listed (or not listed) has much to do with it unless you are listing vero or high risk items or items that are in the hundreds.
It DEFINITELY has to do with your steps and your stealth information.

I just wanted to let you guys know of something that happened that I thought was insanely odd, maybe a glitch.
I had started to go through the link in your WELCOME to Ebay email when you first sign up, to open a paypal account. So I click on the link, then click on create a paypal account. Well it usually has most of your information pre filled in such as name and address ect because you already signed up for ebay and you are going thru ebay to sign up for paypal.
Well the first time I didnt catch it, filled in DOB and password hit submit and brought me back to the page saying my address information was incorrect and had to fill it all out.
Listed an item got 0/0
So then next few accounts I paid SUPER attention, and on one of them when I clicked the link to go to create a paypal account under the name and address section although it doesnt let you fill it in like the info is already there it was blank?!

So I reloaded the page and Bam the name and address part showed up. I hope I am explaining this right and you understand.
Its like a glitch, and if you continue thru with the glitch on the page you get 0/0 but if you close the page and reopen or reload the page till its correct and continue you get 10/1000.
I noticed this several weeks ago but I had forgotten to mention it.
I found it very interesting

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

Can i a register a name to my tracfone? So that it matches the name used on that account?

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

You can't attach a name to a tracfone. But when you activate it, just use the zip code from your stealth address and that will be good enough to get you an area code that matches.

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

I love ebay! I haven't sold anything in the past 3-4 years and I'm back with 6 accounts going strong. I hope to get 6 more going for the holidays coming up!! ;)

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

I tried listing an account tonight and got 0/0 i used a tracfone a real name on the real address it was my cousins info and i listed a low cost item non brand like around 8 dollars. I created ebay first than started the listing than got directed to create a paypal account than did that went back and there it was 0/0.

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

I meant make an account tonight

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

i checked my ip address to it was the same one that i been using for this new account because i logged into a few times added things to watch and bid on 2 items that i lost.

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

Hmmmm this is so odd Nicole,
Its frustrating me!! lol I been trying to help now its bothering me
Can you lay out step by step, detail how you do it?
Maybe there is something in there that we will see that is definitely setting it off?
Hang in there!

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

Hey I just wanted to ask you, do you have separate users on your computer?
Like windows users for each ebay account?
Thats the easiest simpliest way to keep every account separate.
Also when is the last time you read the stealth book?
I have literally read it over 10 xs. and like 5 months ago when all this 0/0 stuff started happening I wasnt even thinking that was an issue to reread it. But after it kept happening and I literally had 40 hours or more down the drain in wasted accounts I read it again, and was surprised how many little things here and there that I had forgotten. And how many little corners I had cut over time as I started to get lazy or more confident with myself as a stealther.
Just a thought!

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

Well this time first step created the ebay account with the new user acct on laptop, name ,address of a relative actually. Secondly I put some items on watch, third thing I bid on couple items so that's when I was asked to feel in address information. Than I let the account take a 2 day break or so I let the items end. Than i just began a listing but didnt finish it let it go to draft. Than after 4 days saw this activate free selling email went in it and activated it got directed to ebay than I than began a new listing didn't use the first listing. Than got the phone verification call to tracfone than put in the pin. Than it asked me to sign into paypal or create I created of course. Than it gave me the info filled in but I just needed to add my card so I added the vanilla card there up front. Than I agreed to yheir terms. Than got directed back to ebay, and than there was the message u have listed over ur limit 0/0

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

And you got your stealth information how?
did as like we talked about with the name matching the zip?

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

Yeah name actually lives at the address its a cousin. But I think I wasted time on that other stuff like bidding and waiting couple days and activating free selling email. It could possibly be the order im really bidding on that is the issue I am having. Cuz I have other running accounts that are like 6 mths old and they're not getting linked. This problem start occuring last month for me.

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

It is true this is a newer issue but I highly doubt it has to do with bidding and history. You should be able to make a solid account that takes about 15-20 minutes to create.

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

Well that's good news Fox20c because i would hate to do all those other steps and waiting and wasting time. Time is money as the saying goes........

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

I agree with fox the 40 accounts that I have been talking about that I made each was done within 20-30 minutes. I did not use the days approach. In fact in the past I didnt either I would always try to follow that advice but I was never patient enough lol

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

So all of you mean that after making accounts successfully with 10/$1000, you can sell immediately without any issues, right?

In my situation, I started listing after 1 days, 3 days and 7 days. All of my accounts received MC 999, two immediately (after 2-4hours) and one the next day. But if I wait for a month, I have 100% success rate.

Has anyone do the same like me? Have u tried listed it sooner? How about the % of success?

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

Ok waiting is ALWAYS safer. Patience is key. I unfortunately do not practice much of it lol.
A few weeks ago I dedicated a few days to make 40 accounts. I list right away. It took me about 20-30 minutes per account to make start to finish. Both ebay and paypal. I listed a low risk item something like used clothing, or kitchen appliances, or baby toys, so on just LOW risk used items. If you use proper steps and ebay likes your stealth information I did not have any problems making the accounts. Except for 2 of them which did get 0/0 but that was because I used an apartment building address on both of those accounts. So that was the common link now I avoid apartment buidling addresses.
If you found that waiting 30 days works for you then stick to it. Its actually the same way with banks. Your safe to open one or two checking accounts and then wait till time has past to open more checking accounts online. But try to open say 5 or more checking accounts at the same time as a new customer and those accounts get put on hold or closed down and you get asked to call them or come in person to the branch.
WAITING is always better, but with ebay and paypal I have found ways around it.

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

So how did it go Nicole?
Did you get some successful ones made?

Re: 0/0 limits on new accounts nonstop now
 

I think the 0/0 hysteria has died down, I have been having a much more lax time making accounts than a few weeks ago.
