is it safe to use Ebay App with 1 account even thou you have 2 accounts ?
 

I have 2 Ebay accounts 1 in my name the other "Stealth" in another name.

I use my official account with my 3g network using the Personal Hotspot function on my phone to login on my other PC.

With my "Stealth" account I log in as normal with my home broadband.

Now I want to install the ebay app on my iphone for convenience.

But I was thinking it could be a issue with linking the 2 accounts together as my iPhone toggles between the 3g network and my WIFI network at home.

Would this be an issue with eBay linking my 2 accounts together? meaning if 1 account gets suspended the other 1 will too ?

I do want to use the app ....but I don't want to sacrifice my 2 eBay accounts being suspended at the same time.

Also has eBay been less harsh on suspending accounts? Just that i ain't had my account suspended for sometime now ...as a year ago it used to be a common occurrence.

Very possible
 

As the IP address will change to the same as the one your PC is using so if they were both connected at the same time you would be linked

Ok.... so there's no way around it ?

The only way around it would be to turn wifi off on the iPhone and only use 3g to connect the e/b app.

Not a major problem really providing you have a good data package with your phone.

It's something I actually do using an iPhone 4 on 3 with all you can eat data, so not using wifi is no big deal as I can use all the 3g data I need.
