Account temporarily restricted
 

Hello,

Just had an email from eBay saying you have been temporarily restricted from selling and buying on eBay because of concerns about your seller account.

The thing is I am using Hushed and I am unable to get them to call me!

Also created the account through UK Fresh IP from IP Burger

Your help is much appreciated

Thank You

Need more information about the email you got

Thank you for your reply, this is the email I got

Hello elitegamin9,
We wanted to let you know that you have been temporarily restricted from selling and buying on eBay because of concerns about your seller account. This must be frustrating, but measures like these help keep our marketplace safe for everyone.

Here’s what you should do
Please get in touch as soon as you can by going to the Help & Contact page below and selecting Contact Us. We’ll just need to ask you a few questions to verify your account so you can get back up and running again. If we don’t hear from you within 7 days, your account may be at risk of being suspended.

Re: Account temporarily restricted
 

Sounds like the typical reactivate your account message..

And you don’t have to call them.. if you go to help and contact there’s a option for them to call you in 1 minute

Re: Account temporarily restricted
 

I actually can call them, but there is no number.
Everytime I try to get them to call me they can't reach me because I use hushed

Re: Account temporarily restricted
 

Best if we know what you are selling before you put too much effort into reactivation attempts?

Your ebay user name suggests gaming account.....

Re: Account temporarily restricted
 

True, I was trying to sell gaming account.
It's not illegal, it's legal to share games and also saw a lot of sellers getting away with it and making sales.
The didn't flag the listing tho

Re: Account temporarily restricted
 

It's against eBay policy, the account is dead, they're merely paying you procedural lip service.

I wouldn't even waste my money adding a proper phone number.

Why some sellers slip through the net I can not say.

Re: Account temporarily restricted
 

I have seen folks selling MSFT key,the listings stay until someone bought it,then eBAY will act

Re: Account temporarily restricted
 

And eb also can go into past listings and do an entire pull + suspension

Re: Account temporarily restricted
 

eBay dont like items like that I am afraid

Can you not update the number to one that you can get a call on?

Re: Account temporarily restricted
 

It was only my first listing, I am hopping to tell them that it was only one account that I had lol

Re: Account temporarily restricted
 

I don't think so because they have like 100+ sales and you go and come back after few days and still there!
But I do see them quoting in their listing description "game share is not illegal under xbox terms and conditions"

Really wiredcan I share some links from ebay with you on here or not allowed ?

Re: Account temporarily restricted
 

They are still there :mad2:

I think these guys maybe they win the appeal ?!

They must be doing something but I don't know what it is

Re: Account temporarily restricted
 

Yup that will be the next step, I am just holding into it not to raise suspecion

I have linked my monzo bank account by the way

Re: Account temporarily restricted
 

If they are doing something, I doubt that info is going to be easy to be obtained - you are going to have work hard via trial and error

Re: Account temporarily restricted
 

I have made a post on how to bypass reactive your eBay account so you can list an item without ever having to call in or message them :)
