.
To sell more on eBay, confirm ownership of another account that you use to sell.
Here's how it works
Make sure you have another eBay account with a higher selling limit.
Enter your account user ID, phone number, and post code.
We'll send a PIN to the email address on file for the other account.
Enter the PIN to confirm ownership of the account.

That is the standard message you will get when requesting a limit increase in the UK

Ok so what do i do ?

Re: On my 3rd account tried to raise selling limits by auto got this message
 

Link an account with a higher selling limits if you want to go that route if not wait it out until you get a natural limit increase.

Re: On my 3rd account tried to raise selling limits by auto got this message
 

Defo dont want to link any accounts ..I think il wait for a natural increase ,how long will that be .is it 30 days after first sale ?

Re: On my 3rd account tried to raise selling limits by auto got this message
 

It cab be 30 days or it can be 90 days. No way to know for sure.
The standard (at least for US based accounts is within 30-60) days but again these things are not set in stone.

Re: On my 3rd account tried to raise selling limits by auto got this message
 

It could be 1 day or it could be 100 days its impossible to be totally sure

Usually though when you hit the limits on the accounts an automatic limit increase will come a few weeks later

mine first 3 all were raised after about a month as i sold close to my limits.

Re: On my 3rd account tried to raise selling limits by auto got this message
 

I have 3 accounts about the same age. They all started with 5/1000 limits. They are now 175/13500, 350/13500 and 350/26k. I waited for the raises and just got the one to 26k a couple days ago.

Just go on chat and request a raise , you may just get a raise to 50 items 75 or 100/3500. Normally the closer you start the chat to their 12 midnight closing time the more likely you will get 100/3500 :thumb:

100% agree with blobby, this has worked for me 9/10 times. Do a web chat, they will ask you some questions, most common one being 'what is your dispatch timeframe?' Give a reasonable answer and come across as though you want to grow your business with eBay and they should raise your allowance.

Re: On my 3rd account tried to raise selling limits by auto got this message
 

if your not hiting limits leave it alone

Re: On my 3rd account tried to raise selling limits by auto got this message
 

Why? Please qualify that statement with some reason and facts.

Re: On my 3rd account tried to raise selling limits by auto got this message
 

Well - it makes sense in one way, if you think about it. Let's say your limit is 50 per month...if you aren't selling 50 (maxing the limit), why would you need a limit of 100? Just from a selling point of view...

Re: On my 3rd account tried to raise selling limits by auto got this message
 

That is like saying why would you want 10 stealths if you can make do with 2.

People do it to prepare for when they do need it. The sooner you do it, the sooner your next raise in limits will appear further down the line.

You absolutely do not need to sell to limits to get a raise via chat. You could have sold 1 item in 3 months and 0 feedback and still get a raise to 100/3500.

Re: On my 3rd account tried to raise selling limits by auto got this message
 

Don't do it. That's how i lost most of my aged accounts. If you arent selling veRO items and not getting hit, you will be okay.

But if you get hit, all the accounts that are related to that one in that way will get block, suspended or else. Even if you had 100% positive feedback.

I find the solution is to generate money for several stealth and withdraw money accordingly.

Re: On my 3rd account tried to raise selling limits by auto got this message
 

I recently hit a limit on listing a 100 items per month stealth account half way through the month.

They without a prompt from me messaged me to say sell more its now 200 anduntil them I'd been listing about 30 a months till i stepped things up a bit.

I think I read somewhere that once you get an i uplift you cannot get or request another for 30 days ?

Re: On my 3rd account tried to raise selling limits by auto got this message
 

When you manually request one yes that is right

Re: On my 3rd account tried to raise selling limits by auto got this message
 

Don't forget also you can not request limits to be raised via chat or phone for a personal account if you already have the max 100/3500 limit. You will get asked to change to a business account.

Re: On my 3rd account tried to raise selling limits by auto got this message
 

Spot on RE personal accounts

You can get the system generate increases on the personal accounts though well above the 100 / £3500 mark. Just have to be patient and wait for them
