0/$0 increase?

[viatos]

Is it possible for my other accounts with 0/$0 limit will have an increase next month without calling ebay? Does it happen to anyone? ��

Have you ever worked out why you got zero limits?

It usually means something about the account does not make the grade for ebay.

Rare then for increases to happen.

As your accounts stand, ebay does not like what they present.

See if you can resolve that.

Good Luck.

The first account that got 0/$0 was because of the unusual name i made up, so that doesnt exist in public records, and the second account is in public records but the address and phone number are just different. So i'm not sure why this second one got 0/$0. Don't wanna call ebay to increase my limits but i'm still using the accounts to search and watch for items.

Without calling eBay? Not likely.

You will have to call if you want your limits increased.

It's better to create a more sound account/be conservative with your initial listings.

Does it work? I just made this account 2 days ago, so do you think it's a good idea for me to call them or should i wait a little longer to request for an increase?

I usually list 1 used shirt just to see my limit.

Are you able to sell? Don't call for increase - let it come naturally. If limits are 0/0, have nothing to lose by calling

I tried to sell but it said i have 0/$0 limit for this month, then i called yesterday and the rep asked if my address is new so i said yes and she asked me where i lived before for 6 months and told her that i cant really remember my sister's address (which i think is impossible not to know your previous address) and made up some alibis. So rep told me to call back once i remember my old address for them to check if it's in public records. Now moving on and making another account. ��

Are all these US accounts receiving 0/0$ if the account is created with any information that cannot be easily verified by eBay or by certain phones that potentially are being used by fraudsters / stealthers?

Decent choice then - try to change the setup method a bit

When I get a 0/0 account, I have been calling in to EB. It has not worked for me, so now I just forget the account and move on.

Yep. It's a trial and error thing, so i made another account last night and got 10/$1000 limit and listed a used sweater just to check if they're gonna remove it with mc999 and luckily they didnt.

It has a lot to do with HOW you create your account but also your behavior with that account. I'd say it's 70% with HOW you create your account.

[fox20c]

From my experience 100% of the time I have gotten the 0/0 they have asked for docs, meaning the account is complete trash. Aspkin is right though, it is all about how you create the account initially.

I have faced this situation before
it usually happen when your "phone" or "IP" are USED before
so please change the place that are not in common state
for example, CA, TX, etc..

You dropped the ball by now having previous address. Always have google ready. They probably would have raised the limits
