Oops! - Will I be suspended? *Urgent*
 

Hey,

I've just logged into my new sellers account with my old suspended ip
I noticed after I checked my O2 dongle connection manager and it connected me to my home network rather than the O2 network it's self.

I've now logged out of my new account and rebooted the router to give me a new ip address.

Will I be suspended?

you might get suspended, youll have to wait

Logging in with the same IP doesn't 100% mean you will be suspended. I know first hand. IPs are just one thing on a list of things that can link you. IPs can be re-assigned to different folks all the time.

As said above, you will have to wait.

How long do you think I should wait?

If you only done it once it should not be an issue, IP address get recycled all the time. Keep going the way you were but don't let your paypal account balance build up too much just in case both ebay and paypal get limited.

Thank you, I was thinking that, I do have a high value item currently on for sale, ends in a few days, It should not be an issue hopefully, I've been printing off postage labels and paypal has been releasing the payments.

Update: Paypal has now limited my account and has asked me to confirm my card by charging £1 to it and confirming the number on my statement.
Yet no E-mail telling me I was limited normally I get an email.

So you logged into your eBay account and your PayPal account got limited?

yeah they do seem to be working a lot more together now, not sure maybe they have appointed an overseer of both companies.

Update I got this message when logging into paypal.

Why is my account access limited?

2 Oct 2010: Our system detected unusual charges to a credit card linked to your PayPal account.

How can I get my account access restored?
Please visit the Resolution Centre and complete the "Steps to Remove Limitations."

Once you have completed all the checklist items, your case will be reviewed by one of our Account Specialists. We will send you an email with the outcome of the review.

I am not sure what unusual charges they are talking about the only time I've used my card is to pay Royal Mail 66p for paypal postage.

This is just a standard paypal reply, I would not read too much into it. I got something similar when I got suspended but I didn't use my CC on Paypal, just for initial verfication 2 years prior.

What all steps have paypal asked from you? Is it just to confirm your CC or is it proof of ID etc? If it is just to confirm your CC i would go ahead, you have nothing to loose.

I have my paypal account now, it got restored at 2pm.
