Mc043 notice
 

OOPS
Just had an MC043 Notice

It has recently come to our attention that some of the contact information on your account is false or missing. This breaches our False or Missing Contact Information policy.

***About eBay's False or Missing Contact Information policy***

The name, telephone number, email address and physical address you register with eBay must be correct at all times so that eBay and your buyers and sellers can get in touch with you. You may not register a fax machine, modem or disconnected number instead of your actual contact telephone number.

It then goes on to update my information .
This is a full stealth account .

Question : Is this one a gonner like i suspect.
Thank you

Not a gonner by any means. Give them the info they are asking for and it will be fine.

I take it there was no working telephone number on the account?

They did not state any specific info .
email stated :


We realise that privacy concerns could mean you're reluctant to register all your details with us, or you might have just forgotten to enter or update your details.

Here's what you should do now:

Please update your contact information within 48 hours to avoid the possibility of suspension of your eBay membership. Here's how:

1. Go to My eBay > My Account > Personal Information.
2. Click 'edit' next to any details that need updating and click 'save'.

If you don't want to list your home telephone number, you can list a voicemail number or a work number instead.

And no there was not a working number linked to this account .
Account was recently purchased .
Its 15 months old

no selling limits on eb
no limits on pp

Thanks

Ill try adding a fresh phone number and hope for the best i think .

It's not such a problem. Just the worry of being 'looked at' by ebay.

Quick update of phone number & it should be sorted.

Mind, make sure you keep this number active. On one account where we got this notice, the pests called months later....only reason I (still) think was to ensure there was an active number.

:peace:

Thanks GB.
Info noted and leason learned .. active numbers for stealths ..
How you guys do it with hundreds of accounts amazes me ..
The mental capacity required is mind boggling ...

At the start it is.........

I started off with those yellow stickies :eek:

Numerous cups of coffee spills later, I had to change the plan. Too hard to work out scrawled, washed out writing.

Excel became a friend.

What I suggest is start slowly. Become as familiar as you can with what you want to do.
Are hundreds of accounts possible? Sure.
Would you go nuts rushing to make them? For sure.
One account to start with & find out how to run it well opens the way to having more stealth accounts if that is what you want.

Dont forget Michael Schumacher drove go-carts for years before becoming a Forumla 1 god.

Do ebay the same way. Slowly & beat the bar stewards.

I'll tell you how....

join something like soho or switchboardfree, one phone number for each ebay, set up forwarding to your mobile in groups , so you know which account your answering to and reply in withheld mode (if they dont answer message them on bay, saying you trying to contact fromk withheld), or buy a loads of cheap mobiles

another precaution , if someone messages you on eby asking for your phone number, just tell them to send you there's and you will ring them

Never failed for me yet

im well cooked and probally making no sence at all, i will however come back the day after tomorrow and try to rectify the mess im making *hickup* time for bed me thinks, night all x

oh before i forget i'm a member of a really good fourm that can help if i mess up :juggle:

ha ha ha crack me up all the time

*PERONAL MESSAGE TO THE ONE I LOVE*
Please do not delete :-)

Thank you GB
Excellent info for a newbie stealth like me.
I cant see me ever having hundreds as my plan is just a few to protect myself for when i get dumped on again.
As it gets a little tiresome having your income taken away from you through no fault of your own .
But i hear you .. slowly slowly .
Thank you

Thanks Tiz
You even make sense when under the influence !!
I think ill take the easy option of few old mobiles im not tech minded enough to go down the switchboard route and ill just forget whats what .

i have had the exact same notice but have an active phone number on the account. what else could it be?? it is an stealth account with a stealth address i have no access to.

If you dont have access to address maybe eb / pp have sent a letter and the house occupier has returned it or complained ?

so how would i know if its this?? do you have experience of this??

Sadly yes.
Ebay will not tell you where your going wrong.
You have to figure out for yourself.
You have a working phone and email so it can only be address thats the issue.
Depending on the age / limits of the account in question i would either start again or move the address to somewhere you have access to so no future complaints.

@levi

BruceLee and I had a long conversation on this topic.

I told him bedtime stories about issues of address & access

Actually gave him nightmares.

Soz, Bruce
:pout:

haha ok no problem thanks guys

Time to think outside the box.

Soon as ( like yesterday), get an address you can access.

Then call ebay and tell them about being such a busy little bee you moved house but did not update your address.... and here you are only too happy to be able to sell on ebay uk 'cos you just love them....


Get an address, cancel out the notice. Sell on.......

Wagons Ho!!!!!!
:cheer:

Your nightmares are always welcome GB as the knowledge gained makes it worth while .
Its the ones involving aliens with probes im not so keen on !!!

Another month of sleeping pills required..

I will agree there was a misleading typo here:

What I meant to say you have met rsot's pet.

Misinformation tut tut
