I do wonder why it's happening in these waves? Very odd.

Anyone think theres any chance of eB being more relaxed about other payment options when they go their separate ways? It's starting to look like the PP days may be numbered.

Personally, Im surprised that eBay have been permitted to be as restrictive as they have been regarding payment methods. One can only hope that the future is more flexible in this respect

I have just received a limitation. No email, seems to be the same as everyone else.

On signing in theres a red banner at the top with the words

'Your account access is limited
Learn how to remove this limitation'

When you click on the link 'learn how to remove this limitation' it takes you to page with a yellow box and a yellow/red exclamation mark, next to it, it says

'Limited account information: Your account is still limited, why?'

When you click on why, it takes you to a page that says this:

Why is my account access limited?

Your account access has been limited for the following reason(s):

9 Dec 2014: For reasons relating to the safe use of the PayPal Service we need some more information about you and your account to help confirm your identity.


However I cannot see on any page where it says 'this limitation can not be appealed against'

There are no options for me or steps to follow. Is this the same as what everyone else is receiving?

Between eBay and paypal, yes, the eBay account is also screwed. If you try to add a different paypal to the ebay account, paypal will link it and kill the "new" paypal account too

Somewhat expected this.

Months back, March/April time, I had a call from Barclays. My main bank and we have a great relationship. They asked me why deposits had mismatched names. I informed GB of this.

It's my suspicion that PP and banks have agreed to share info on mismatched names. Of course, I could be totally wrong.

Could 'some banks' really be contacting paypal to tell them about mismatched names to cover their selves??

I personally am not spooked by Ebay/PP, I diversify by having both Eb and PP accounts all over the world. Different countries have different rules

Trunk, paying your ebay fees from your paypal balance is fine.

You dont want the funds coming from your bank account, as they can then see the name attached to the bank account.
