Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

So just to clarify, I put in my real info ... everything was working perfectly, receiving payments etc. And then they linked me to my suspended accounts from 3 years ago.

This method doesn't work for "stealth" and to be frank it never was stealth. Just a way to extend the period of selling.

My advice is make as many accounts as possible and have them ready to use to experiment with.

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

Hi James, I believe you used your real info on multiple accounts. Have they linked all your accounts that used your real info or just one account?

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

Hi,

Just to provide info regarding my own experience with MP, to see if it helps anyone.

I had 11 Ebay accounts and migrated all of them to MP.

5 of the accounts were suspended. For all of these 5 accounts, photo ID was requested and I provided f*ke (but very good!) passport pics.

For the 6 remaining accounts, I used real info, which came from wife, mother, brother, etc.

My advice would be to see if you can use trusted family, friends or colleagues details, along with their bank account details.
This will give you the maximum chance of migrating to MP successfully.

Good luck and be safe and healthy in 2021 x

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

And now all the money are going to your family and friends bank accounts?

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

This is the only way to guarantee your income from ebay if all else fails.

But what did you in regards to the bank accounts ? are they not all going to your family members accounts ? Family members may be OK with me using their details but they certainly won't allow me to use their banks. The implications with tax / self assessment etc won't be worthwhile.

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

How soon did that happen after you were accepted onto MP?

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

Hi James, do you think the link was caused due to you using more than one account. I was banned maybe 7 years ago and i used all my old info and I still havent been linked yet! Only time will tell I suppose. I think we both converted ag the same time to MP I guess I will just sweat it out now and see. If this has happened to you then Ebay are obviously not giving old banned members a second chance which is what we all hoped!

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

Hi buddy,

Yes, that is the only way to have a full end-to-end process that will work.

My brother, mother and wife all opened new bank accounts a few months ago, as I planned towards the MP migration. They agreed to let me have full online access to these accounts, as we all trust each other implicitly.
Initially, I sent a few hundred quid to each account and have been spending regularly on the card associated with each account, to show normal usage.

The only issue comes with moving the money out, if you then need to transfer it to your business bank account but hey, Ebay has always made us jump through hoops and nobody said it was going to be easy and that there wouldn't be some logistics to overcome!

That said, I do not know of a more robust solution and I realise everyone is waiting for a simpler solution - however, i don't know of a simpler solution, only the solution that works for me! If you have a better solution that works for you, then that is also OK (thumbs up)

Good luck in 2021 x

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

...further to my last message, I was also fearful of using my real name and home address, as a personal Ebay account was suspended 5 years ago, hence my foray into Stealthing.

However, I have now reverted one of my Ebay business accounts to my full limited company name with real home address but have amended my name so it is not (for example) Dave Smith but is now DM Smith, so have introduced my middle name.

The above has been fine so far and accepted for MP but I have everything crossed for the future!!

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

Hi,

Yes, the alternative is to use your own bank account but with f*ke ID details.
However f*ke details didn't work for me and the f*ke passport pics led to suspended accounts in all 5 cases.

There is going to be pain and problems with every option but ultimately, you just need a workable solution, however difficult the transition to get there.

I think the only way to maintain multiple Ebay accounts now is to have multiple 'trusted partners.'

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

As long as the money is traceable I personally don't see the problem. It's all eventually ending up in your business account and you can show the source. That's the main thing.

It was the only way you could sell and your family members are happy to let you use their accounts to do it.

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

I have two accounts, one which I transferrred over to managed payments using all my personal details legit and it has been going fine. My other account is fully stealth bought from here some time ago, it is getting lot's of "you must enrol with managed payments" messages with further restrictions etc.
The only option I can think of (other than just keep going with paypal until they pull the plug) is to change the details over to my wifes details, with a legit name, bank etc but it would be the same home address as my other account. My main worry is risking both accounts by using the same address on both ebay accounts.
At the moment I'm too nervous to even change the details on the stealth account in ebay before trying managed payments. Part of me is just thinking "let it run it's course and stick to one account" but it would be a shame to loose the setalth account as it is doing well.

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

Thanks for keeping us updated.

How long did it take until you were linked?

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

This is what I am planning to do with my main account too.

How long has it been since you signed up to MP?

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

I have the same problem, several members of my family/ house with the same adress on their banks.

But if you enter your bank by internet you can change the adress registered in the bank to the stealth one (while you are in the verification process with Managed Payments) and then once in M.P. change the adress in your bank to the original non ⊗⊗⊗⊗ one.

Does it make sense?, is it possible guys ... don't you think?

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

I can't see why that wouldn't work? Sounds like a plan to me.

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

I have been ALL over this site looking for the right solution before switching to MP.
I REALLY want to save my one, and ONLY one, stealth account I've had for the last 8 yrs.
My question is.....is UK different than US on switching to MP?
I'm reading lots of great advice from people and if it's totally different than I want to make sure I'm not reading advice on the UK ones.

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

UK is different, stick to the USA advice as you guys have SSN etc which we don't.

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

Hello everyone, now I have been invited to Ayden,all my hidden accounts must go before March 26.
I have read all the topics related to mp, but I have not found a solution for myself, so I will be happy to receive any advice from you
My stele consists of
The hidden name of the company
Hidden company number (it is real but belongs to another company not mine)
Hidden First and Last Name
Hidden Address
Hidden date of birth
I also doubt that there is such a person that I have indicated in the First and Last Name
So my stealth is made up entirely of hidden data
I do not know what strategy to follow to get into mp.I understand that ayden will throw us out not only because we were once suspended and it will find a connection or it has already found it and so far allowed us to work but then it may change its mind, but also because its rules include quite strict measures of compliance with trade relations,for example, the number of returns should not exceed 0.5% of all sales per month,this is quite cruel.I understand that sooner or later you will get suspended because of mp and because of the wild west of ebay.I have read several scripts and there are questions for them, I hope for your opinions.
1 Scenario
Provide Ayden real data and wait for updates on ebay without doing anything, the fact that I am a Russian citizen this means that I will not pass the credit check, in my opinion this is the same as providing stel data, of course the passport will be real and this will increase the chance but I doubt that they accept Russian citizens, since it is very difficult for us to open a bank account in the UK.I have a bank account for my company ltd which of course is different from the names of the companies in my stealth
Do you think I have a chance to provide Ayden with my passport and bank statement and do nothing on ebay? What is the probability that they will accept me?

2 Scenario
I can prepare creative documents, but before that, I can study the numeric values of the ID and prepare valid numbers,I have little experience in creating creative documents and I understand that there are methods and mandatory requirements for the document that you make, so as not to fall into the trap.I can prepare a bank statement by applying the correct address I can even issue a card in that name but unfortunately not an account..
I understand that with my experience of changing documents, I can fall into a trap, but I think I will try to do so.I read about the many failures of this method, but also read about the success,I hope people who have become successful with this approach will give me a couple of valuable tips.This method is the best, if it certainly works for a number of objective reasons.

3. The script
I can get real documents, let's call these documents partner documents and provide Ayden with real data and wait for ebay to change the information and let me through.

I understand that I have a complete mismatch of account data and this does not tell me anything good, given some posts that when using 1 or 3 scenarios, people were suspended due to too different information provided for MP

What would you do in my case, maybe I don't see reality as it is?I am invited for all my ebay accounts on March 26, I have only 3 of them.I got a big hit in December 2020 and just started to recover, so I don't have both the time and the funds for long experiments.I do not see an adequate solution now, except how to wait for day x and sell while I can, but this day x is coming soon and I do not have any working options to go.
Any advice, thank you!

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

Use stealth info and doc. Just by luck.

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

1, 2 ,3 ...

Try them all. Seriously, you can hopefully get 1 account through. But do it until you have too, so keep selling until they fully restrict your account

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

Well I successfully got my first account through last year. Changed all the details to real first, then its been running fine ever since.

Now my other 2 stealth accounts have to be done this week. Gonna make them real too. At this point is there even any point logging IP's and using different windows accounts as its completely linked. Does ebay actually mind you having multiple accounts for different categories?

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

Someone linked transferwise or something else for Managed payments?

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

hi how will you make the other 2 account real ?

family / friends details ?

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

No just gonna put them all in my real name. I don't have any banned accounts in my name so hoping they won't care about the link. I have 2 real buying accounts in my name already any they didn't mind it matching the stealth. I don't sell ⊗⊗⊗⊗ items so fingers crossed

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

I would keep changing the IP address and keeping accounts on separate CPU profiles as no one knows if, as this is financial data that it is kept separate to linking accounts when you lose one.

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

So i have to change UK stealth to Managed Payments.
The account has a made up name but a real address, in order to set the bank account up which is in my name do i need t change the name on the stealth account to my name before signing up and hope for the best?

In reality Ebay should not see the name unless they try to take money by DD?

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

So i changed a fictitious name on my stealth account to my real name and carried out the bank account linking.

All went ok, made a test purchase and 2 days later the amount was paid out to my account.

Maybe i have been lucky.

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

Hello all, i’ve been away for a while from aspkin

But would it be viable for us UK Based sellers to purchase ebay accounts that are located in a non - MP hit country and trade off that as normal

Just an idea, would this be possible though?

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

I was thinking the same,
But we will need the followings of that country
Address, phone, IP address, bank acc,
Eb shud get that we are staying in say Philippines but selling on ebay Uk,

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

Your adress on file with your bank must match eBay's registered adress?

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

no. lately US managed payments hasn't been complaining about mismatched bank info.

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

No it doesn't

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

And could they see the address on your bank?, because mine is banned in old eBay account. Is it a concern?

If not, do they check your official residential address anywhere in a public/ private database?

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

Hi I wonder is there a limit to the number of ebay accounts you can have in your real name please ?
I potentially could have about 12 accounts with ebay real id but with different paypal details.

I ask the question about how many ebay accounts can a person have, in case I need to cherry pick the accounts I want to use because some of my older ones have a private seller ebay but with no limit paypal accounts.

I now have had about 6 more ebay accounts requests for managed payments (31 may deadline).

I have submitted new s details for an ebay business account that was in a ltd company name of a relative and their now old address.

It had an ebay business seller id and a another ebay id which is as a private seller. The relative has now passed away and the ltd company was disssolved.

I have changed everything to my real details including correct dob, and show the business as a sole trader and as my real name.

The bank account is a personal bank account which I had been using on the paypal account. Ebay asked for a bank statement and i provided a genuine pdf statement.

They thanked me and said we will let you know. No requests for the private seller id re managed payments yet.

Re: eBay UK - Managed Payments ? How will we stealth ?
 

You can have as many accounts as you want and under different banks but this must be justified, you can sell in toys in one account and music in another. But as far as I know you can't sell music CDs on one and DVDs on another ...
