Moving the Goal Posts

[paypalpains]

OK, so out of my own stupidity, been too busy, excuses, etc. I have not opened any new accounts recently and now find myself needing them again after two accounts got kicked, and a third one is on its way out. Brainwashed ebayers, problem must equate to F*K£.

Paypal seem to have changed their verification policy, once what was an easy enough phone redirection, is now verfied by sending documentaion, easy enough, but a lot more hassle. This is the only change I have noticed opening up a PP account, and I have encountered no other stumbling blocks which hinder the progress of getting a fully verified account. The documentation part is time consuming, and ones mug shot will become the most wanted in PP soon. I have just ordered a load of cards to open new accounts, before the goal posts are moved again. A note to the lazy, do not put off what you can do today, tomorrow you might find it has become twice if not even more harder.


On to Ebay, this has to be the most annoying, with selling restrictions in place from the beginning, 100 items tops. At any time you get any negativity, you can be sure that that will be reduced to 10, yes thats right 10 items a month. Hard to mature an account when limits like that are in place. Due to some take downs, I have two accounts where the limits will not be lifted. Both accounts are 100% FB both have over 100 transactions, however when I first opened the accounts I got done for trademark infringement , and for that reason they will not remove the limit. Do not think that is a new thing, but it is a major hinderance and something worth mentioning. Do not sell Vero until your limits are lifted.

The ebay verification does not seem to have changed much, remember to always confirm your account with C/C and not PP, it can help save your PP for future down the line.

If there is anything I have missed, and if there is anything anyone would like to add, then please do contribute to the post.

Of course if anyone has any questions, needs any help, then I am back around to help in as constructive a way as I possibly can.

Thanks for taking the time to read.

Good luck and god Speed

I have noticed that, it's kinda of good news and bad news for me.

Considering my account is registered to my office address, I don't really have anyway of
getting a bank statement, but I noticed that the prepaid MasterCard company I'm with, will issue me one, so I've sent them an email.

Once I get it, I can upload it to PayPal along with my passport.

That's the bad news, the good news is, considering eBay UK now allows mobile numbers, I don't actually need a land-line, which will save money.

Also my card is registered to my office, so it was easy enough to add to Pay-Pal and will be easy to add to eBay as well.

Soho66 will redirect any of their numbers to a mobile phone for 2 a month per number, so no need for a land line anyway, if you do not want one.

Entropay will issue a C/C with a minimum top up of 10 pounds, with that ten pounds you can create 8-9 more cards so no need to ever use your own C/C

Bank card addresses do not matter, it is the numbers that do all the work, sort code, bank acc no. Where your card is registered will not have any baring on getting verified.
