managed payments on personal account
 

Hi all,
Been off ebay for a few months and now looking to start selling again.

I have 3 personal stealth accounts, 2 in random names & 1 in my name.
All been going a couple of years & passed all previous verification checks.

Really not sure how to pass MP on a stealth account - I have had emails on all 3 asking to migrate to MP.
The linked bank accounts are in my name, so will this flag straight away?
Is there any way around this?
Also, will stealth ID docs work with MP?

Apreciate any assistance.

I am in a similar situation, except one of my account is in my friends name and using his name on the account etc, ideally need to use my bank account, as I do not want to send funds to my friends bank account

I hope someone knows.

I did watch a youtube on managed payments, they seemed to suggest that eBay will perform a soft credit check on the bank account details that you supply, so that it matches the name on the ebay account...

No way MP on stealth, no matter what people say on here.

Re: managed payments on personal account
 

Just give all your real info and be done with it.

If they ban you then worry about making a stealth account in MP.

Hi,

I am in the same position but with one very good standing account 7 years 150k limit 2.5k sales a month,
Not selling any thing dodgy !
Been looking at these threads for hours trying to work out the best way,
please correct me if I am wrong ��
eBay has never had our bank details to cross ref ?
We can use our real names but they wouldn’t ban just by changing a name to the same name that has happened to be banned 5 years ago ?
Soft search shouldn’t address match ?
If they did ask for ID that could be obtained through “friends” ?
If you have multiple stealth accounts they are not linked so even if you use your real name on those with different bank accounts, can’t see why eBay would question it ?
Even though we have to be careful, I was worried but maybe overthinking it ?

Real name, real bank account + wrong adress (and ⊗⊗⊗⊗ documents when they ask it) can pass ? I changed all to 100% real so I didn t try ⊗⊗⊗⊗

do you think they have gave up checking as they losing sellers cos of it?
Care to do mine? il pay for you to do it

Re: managed payments on personal account
 

let's see if you can revceive money on the bank account now ^^ (or they will ask document to verify you maybe ? :x)

Re: managed payments on personal account
 

Hmm, I signed up for MP but never received that eBay message! Which is worrying.

Re: managed payments on personal account
 

Give it try freind as we have nothing to lose. If you don't update to the new payment system, you wont be able to list or sell, so go ahead.

I just updated a second account and went smoth so far, but time will tell, hopefully they won't need anything else, although it does say in their email that completed no further action is needed!

Re: managed payments on personal account
 

Hi, need to do mine this month

Did you just change your ebay details to your real name and dob before setting up MP.

Re: managed payments on personal account
 

I had that on a couple of accounts , it seems to come randomly and unfortunately it is not verified , the actual verification for additional documents came later. I still think that using real details is the way to go , this might not allow 20 accounts but very well 2-3 very stable genuine accounts where large volumes could be slowly developed

Re: managed payments on personal account
 

I left the made up name as it was as it might raise any red flag. if they ask later I will say that it was the fault of the '' auto correct'' option in my computer.

Note: if you put a address that ebay system can't find it, then you make sure it find it before applying, as might fail to verify you.

For now, is all good, not sure what other paper work do they ask later, perhaps time will tell!!!

Re: managed payments on personal account
 

I got this message

"You’re all set.
Thank you for updating your account. If your payouts were on hold, you’ll start receiving funds again once we verify all your information."
My bold. I guess I'll know in afew days if I've passed the verification as on Saturday/Sunday it will be two weeks since I signed up.

Re: managed payments on personal account
 

Best of luck :) hoping for good news for you

Re: managed payments on personal account
 

Eek! Best of luck.

Have fingers and toes crossed for Good News.

Please update ASAP.

Just like paypal, I received this from ebay to verify your bank.

Re: managed payments on personal account
 

i got this a few days ago put the 2 micro deposits in and all ok, apart from ebay saying they will withdraw the two micro deposits this may take 2 to 3 days .

Re: managed payments on personal account
 

Maybe savings accounts are good as the deposit withdrawal will fail as savers are not meant for direct debit

Re: managed payments on personal account
 

Does anybody else think that eBay might be verifying personal MP accounts differently to business accounts? Maybe they arent so strict until you turnover a certain amount of money (like Paypal).
