Re: managed payments on personal account
 

One thing I know is that UK government has asked ebay and Amazon to be more strict who is making money and to pass on that data back to government, so the tax man can knock in your door if you have not declare it. I think this is leading to that point, is a matter of time I guess.

Also, If they they roll on the ''no cash society and digital money only'', there will be no place to hide, it will be a total government control, that is why covid scam is happening, for many reasons of course and I know I am getting out of the theme here a bit, but it is important that people are kept informed

Finally, the last step of verification is done. I hope!

Re: managed payments on personal account
 

Interesting...

Re: managed payments on personal account
 

Good idea but I am afraid that they don't accept saving accounts ...

Re: managed payments on personal account
 

What exactly is being checked by trustly? Clearly they are checking the name/bank details. Are they also checking address and DOB? If you enter a correct DOB on trustly, are ebay cross reverencing this with what they hold for you?

Re: managed payments on personal account
 

I am sure many would agree we would rather pay tax than end up on unemployment benefit because Ebay stealth is no more.

Re: managed payments on personal account
 

Certainly get that way

Re: managed payments on personal account
 

They 100% do accept savings accounts

Re: managed payments on personal account
 

This is where it could all fall apart if you are not using your real name for eBay account that matches your bank account.
I believe eBay will see the name for this bank account when they take the microdeposits out
They may flag the mismatch.
I hope I'm wrong because this is what I will have to go through with my MP accounts soon

Good luck

Re: managed payments on personal account
 

The two deposits option won't work, as has been said above, eBay will see the name on the bank account. If that name doesn't match the name on the eBay account then its bye-bye account.

Only option if you're not using genuine details on the eBay account is create f.a.k.e docs.

Re: managed payments on personal account
 

I put the xxxx details in as per the account. Logged in and did the check. Got an email from eb to say it has all passed and thanks for updating. The dd is set up. The only glitch is that trustly pulled my real name. So this missmateches my eb but eb say its still passed?? What other personal details does trustly check? Just bank account name and numbers or more???

Re: managed payments on personal account
 

no mention of micro deposits etc

Re: managed payments on personal account
 

Hi, so did you just leave your stealth name, address and dob,.

And didn't need to upload any id or documents?

Re: managed payments on personal account
 

Possibly.
I've given up on my business account and MPs as I signed up for it and nothing happened. eBay didn't send me a message that I was signed up and my account was restricted so i can only sell £10 of good a month!

last night I signed up on my private account and it went through fine.
On my private account (to sign up for MP) I changed to my real name and DOB, my address is OK - I use my real address (because i moved here a few years ago).
Luckily I used my real surname on my eBay account just a different first names so maybe that will get me through any future checks?
So signing up all details are now real.

There's no going back!

Re: managed payments on personal account
 

So you changed the stealth to real? Please keep us updated on how the process went, am in the same situation, I dont want to change to real unless I absolutely have to.

MP is actually a saver for me in a way, as paypal kicked me out last year, so the Personal account has been laying dormant.

Re: managed payments on personal account
 

Also I like to talk about Facebook Marketplace, after I was kicked by paypal I moved my business there, and its been absolutely amazing, I cant look back now, in fact I intend to keep 80% of Business there.

There are just some stuffs that are difficult to move on Facebook, thats why I still need Ebay, as it gives you National and International coverage, if it wasnt for that then I might just leave Ebay.

Facebook has Zero fees, no shipping fees, and you can accept cash all day long, so absolutely no trail if you want.

Re: managed payments on personal account
 

You do mainly local sales with the FB marketplace?

Re: managed payments on personal account
 

Yes local and not so local, as I have customers travelling from different cities half of the time.

Re: managed payments on personal account
 

Something I found out on Facebook is just how impatient people can be, are willing to travel and or are willing to pay a bit more or the same price if it means they get their stuffs as son as possible, instead of buying on amazon or elsewhere and waiting a day or so. If for some reasons you are unavailable when someone say they wanna come pick up, and you say come tomorrow, thats it 95% of the time you lost the customer.

Facebook Marketplace is an amazing place, its something I dont see discussed here as an alternative to Ebay, and it should, if Facebook introduces card payment, Ebay is in BIG TROUBLE, because a lot of people are already using it for almost everything.

Re: managed payments on personal account
 

I believe FB marketplace is a future of selling. Once they start managing payments.

Re: managed payments on personal account
 

We could do with facebook version of eBay.

One NOT run by arseholes.

Re: managed payments on personal account
 

Wrong DUDE, so far no need for a real name as long you can connect your bank account! Proof! https://i.imgur.com/qNmySyo.jpg
