Here I go again..

Ok, so I've not been having much luck with my stealth accounts, perhaps due to clumsiness and being slightly blonde at times! I was ready to jack it in and try again when I moved house in a few months, but.. I've decided against it.

Whilst I've been at my parents house I've used their computer and my iPhone to set up 2 new accounts.. The account I had suspended before was in my partners name, in my panic I went about trying to set other accounts in my name and in stealth names resulting somehow in me getting linked. I totally forgot that perhaps I should use my details to my own house! I have cleared all cookies, changed IP, set up a new email and have managed to create a legit paypal and eBay account.. Paypal were able to verify me with my address so I didn't need to do additional checks, all I need to do now is verify a bank account which I will be sorting out next week.. The question I have now, is on my partners account which is suspended, my address was used once or twice for deliveries.. Will this link me? If so I'm screwed AGAIN!

Now, the second account I made was in my brothers name and address, for some reason the check needed verifying with a phone call from paypal. I did that this morning and entered some entropay details I had spare. All I need to do on this account is again, verify a bank.

I have made both accounts personal accounts so I can start out gradually. Once I've sold 10 items on each I will go about looking at possibly upgrading to premier again. When making these accounts I've deleted cookies and history each time.

Any feedback would be grately appreciated so that I can hopefully get this sorted. If I've screwed up again then I guess I will wait until I move house again.

That is good work.

Did the £1900 receiving limit come off the account after you did the electronic name with address check? (Maybe after the bank verify stage)

Making a slight address adjustment may be needed if that previous address was used on a banned PP. No need to give PP an easy time linking you. Make it hard/impossible for them to link.

"link" is known as a dirty word on this forum...

I think, I hope I should be ok, I checked safely the other accounts that I had registered, and I'd used that address but never been verified and I had misspelt everything. The last time I didn't get the big fat green tick lol.

This time however I entered all my correct details. I think I need to wait until I'm bank verified before it will lift the limits. I will have that sorted in the next week, just need more banking details!
