Mail Forwarding in UK
 

Ok - total nightmare.

I managed to source a great product on eBay that I could re-sell on another website. Was starting to make some decent cash.

Then...boom. EBay account and PayPal account blanket banned. My neighbor seems to have got our whole postcode blacklisted for selling fa ke Apple sh*t. New stealths are not a problem.

Is there any relatively inexpensive UK mail forwarding companies that I could register an eBay buyer account with? Then the company just send the eBay purchased items to me?

Cheers.

Problem is, the majority of the mail forwarding companies are blacklisted because of various scams.

So you need to find your own unique mail drop, normally they are the cheapest too.

Think outside the "box".

Only well known one that won't get shot down straight away is a PO box from Royal Mail. Fairly cheap, although can only accept royal mail parcels and letters. No couriers.

You can't even open up a buyer account, what the hell did your nieghbour do, threaten to eat their children or something?

Maybe someone can confirm it happens but I have never heard of a blanket ban on any postcode, especially for buyers accounts.

Same as above, buying accounts should be fine even if you have previously been banned.

I currently have a buying account in my own details with close to 100 feedback all from buying, even though I am a banned seller.

How long did the current buying account that just got banned last? Maybe give it one more shot before using a mail forwarding service?

I've had it a year or so. I didn't attempt to open a buyer account in my own name because I just assumed that because the address is blacklisted it wouldn't let me...

Did you open your buyer account after you were shot down as a seller? If so, I shouldn't have a problem.

Cheers guys.

Yes I opened it after my selling account was suspended. Actually I have had at least 3 selling accounts linked to my address suspended as back then I did not know about stealth and tried using my siblings details not knowing how the eBay system works.
