really old ebay account

they_screwed_me_too · #1 07-03-2012

i discovered an old ebay and pp account

2004 100+ feedback no limits at all

no access to the email address as yahoo deleted it

yes i dont know the password or sec questions

i could possibly blag this but its in a girls name and my voice is rather deep

tried on chat but they asked the wrong question and the connection dropped "cough"

and i cant call pp

ill keep you all posted

wow
Not sure you went the right way with this by phoning PP to be honest.

without email, not sure how you can access, other than to talk/email them about it.

Gamefreak · #4 07-03-2012

You need access to the email to be able to change anything... Contact yahoo?

rsot · #5 07-03-2012

Get the new email going.

Elijah · #6 07-03-2012

You had better pray that nobody registered that email address after Yahoo! deleted it.

as always

first step is to try and get the email reactivated

and remember what that damn dog is called

GreenBean · #11 07-04-2012

ALL dogs are called Rover or Spot

Stigger · #12 07-04-2012

or lucky, which the op seems to be , however lucky the dog was not.

thats what i meant about not contacting pp, contact PP would be a Very last ditched attempt.

I was reading some threads about selling limits on here today, and decided to check out some of my old accounts. I have 2 or 3 pretty old accounts, that I stopped using for 1 reason or another, but still had access to. One of the accounts, is a 2004 account, that has 300 feedback, and past sales of 20k+.

That is the good. The bad, is that it hasnt had any selling activity since late 2010, and the paypal account that was originally attached to it was limited (the ebay account was never limited/suspended/or anything).

I was wondering if anyone here had any idea what sorts of limits this account may have, how safe it would be to connect a newly created paypal to it, and what sorts of advantages (if any) this account could have over a brand new one.

Thanks

has anyone ever had an old suspended account age and had their suspension disappear?

update

password for ebay came to me and im now logged in

sorted the yahoo email problem too

did a password reset on PP and clicked the link

asked for security questions there too

after i tried it said we cant confirm your the owner of this account, retry or create another account

might be my only option and add it to the ebay

what is the safest way in your opinions ?

im thinking new PP, (same) name and different address (that can be verified via public record) and change eb address to match (as ive moved, cough) ?

softly softly catchy monkey so i await your thoughts

thank you

they_screwed_me_too · #19 10-04-2012

would love to get into the original PP account

grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

is it worth "her" calling them and saying i dont know the securty questions as its so long ago ?

what would be their procedure in this instance ?

Callidus · #20 10-04-2012

Even if 'she' does call them and ask you have nothing to lose as you cannot access the account anyway, why not try!

i will call as a last option, but not just yet

i dont want any extra scrutiny on it or the ebay account or on any new PP i create

Callidus · #22 10-04-2012

Yes that's true...

How old is this account by the way, sorry cba to read previous posts...
