Confused. Does stealth work for MP?

[medway30]

I have just received an email from eBay on my stealth account saying I need to be ready for their manage payments system.
Confused here after looking around the forum. Will my stealth details I’m using for PayPal still work for manage payments?

I see some People saying it will and some saying it won’t??

Think the consensus is it's real details on MP as even if you pass with stealth details they will ****can you within a couple of months anyway.

I just got the same eBay message on my Stealth.
Im considering changing the name on my eBay to my actual name.

- Certainly a risk because I also have a personal eBay account in my name too.
But thankfully i have a common name lol.

Why are people wanting to change to MP if this is the case? Why are they signing up before they have to?

Just yr name? What about address etc?

I can change my address with the bank I will add.
so yes i would just change my name on Ebay.

I didnt choose managed payments. i just received a message from eBay saying I have to switch by April 30th.

I will do this around April 29th because for now im happy with the money going into PayPal

Don't be so thankful yet. Your DOB and address history will take down your stealth account and probably put your legit account at risk. Keep your legit account, far, far away from your stealth business.

This typically is people who pay limited paypal accounts or sell items that cause paypal problems.
