| |  | | | CaptainComedown | 05-19-2021 02:26 AM | Managed Payments Problem! Ok so I managed to get onto Managed Payments about 2 months ago using half stealth details (Real name, phake addy, phake DOB). When I was asked to register for MP I simply entered my details along with a Monese bank account with matching name and was somehow accepted and placed onto the Managed Payments system. I have received payments every day for almost 2 months with no issues.
Today I have logged in to find my payments are suspended and they are asking for details. Can they actually check that the ID is real? Or do you think I can submit it and get away with it because the name on the bank is matching?
Or any other way I can get around this? Everything was going smoothly, no negatives and daily sales of legitimate products (I literally own the copyright to them, registered in the same name as the Ebay Acc)
Any help would be advised, as I don't know what to do apart from maybe contacting an account seller and trying to find an account for a country that doesn't have MP. I never thought I'd say this but I miss Paypal |
| richie2065 | 05-19-2021 06:40 AM | Re: Managed Payments Problem! Did you submit any form of Id, Passport or Driving licence?
Have you had a return/refund that caused ebay to dip into that bank account, maybe that is when it got flagged and hence the delay |
| CaptainComedown | 05-19-2021 07:26 AM | Re: Managed Payments Problem! No, I wasn't asked to when I registered. I haven't had any returns or refunds recently. I did refund an item a few weeks ago but it went smoothly. The bank account name matches the Ebay name so it shouldn't flag up should it? |

It shouldn't be an issue.
Ebay account suspended, do you have an option to add different bank account ? |

| murdered_by_ebay | 05-19-2021 08:10 AM | Re: Managed Payments Problem! my guess is that you did not provide a bank statement but logged in through trustly during MP registration? |

| CaptainComedown | 05-19-2021 08:38 AM | Re: Managed Payments Problem! I didn't log into the bank through trustly. I was actually just trying to get my account to last a few more weeks, I was very surprised when it passed for MP.
I literally just had to confirm the name and address on my ebay account, and then type in an account number and sort code. I wasn't asked to verify anything during the enrollment and I haven't sent them any kind of document yet. I was almost shocked when I logged in to find it had been accepted, and even more shocked when the payouts went smoothly! I was hoping to keep this account permanently |

I must have been lucky then, it is definitely a business account. I was expecting to be asked for documents but I thought maybe because the name matched the bank account then maybe it was ok.
I tried to get previous accounts onto MP with no luck. Usually I just confirm the details and apply to MP so that I can get another few weeks of selling before I have to abandon the account. Usually after a few weeks they ask me for documents but for this account they just accepted it for some reason. Although it is a problem now! |

eventually I figured out that stealth does not work anymore so I changed the details to my real ones and sent my real id which passed the verification.
in your case I think the only option you have left , apart from losing the account , is to change the details to real details and send the matching ID |

I have recently moved house so I have a "clean" address now. I don't know whether to switch everything over to my real details and hope they accept it, or if I should try and make a brand new completely legitimate Ebay account and just start fresh with no stealth.
I'm worried in case I put my real details and they reject it, and then I won't be able to make a legit account afterwards.
What do you think the best play is? I'd be interested to know your opinion, and you seem to have more experience with MP than I do! |
| Katrina | 05-19-2021 10:58 AM | Re: Managed Payments Problem! I think it would be best to make a fresh legit account if I were you
And here on this one, just confirm your stealth name, dob, address and see what happens |

This one is asking me for ID now so I guess I will either have to abandon it or try sending creative documents. I don't think Adyen will accept it though! I miss Paypal, you could send them a passport drawn in crayon and they would be like "yep thats perfect" |

The whole point of verifying through trustly is that eBay/ayden trust that the bank as done due diligence and made sure your real kyc so that don't have to I might be wrong so please correct |

Not only that both legit accounts were running on different machines and residential ip's and of course new pics for listings nothing was the same from any other account I run so I've always found it very peculiar as to why they do this when everything is above board I can only thing that the rep reviewing this is a complete and utter numpty and probably having a bad day. |

I have 14 ebay+PP accounts, I'm just hoping to fix the one that successfully registered on MP. I notice it seems to sell a lot more than the accounts that are still on paypal, which I'm guessing is no coincidence!
The other 13 accounts are all either due to be registered to MP in the next few weeks or haven't been listed on yet. Of course as soon as I start selling from them they will be asked to register to MP, so its only a very short term solution. By the time I get them running at full capacity they will be dead. I had bought and created a number of personal accounts, as I hoped it would be later in the year before they got asked, but sadly my plan didn't work.
Plan C is to try and create an Amazon account again. I tried to register last year, and used my real documents and sent my real passport and they rejected it!! They told me my passport was phake, which is odd because it works fine at the airport! :lol:
I have a new address now so maybe if I try again and send my driving license this time, I can get accepted. |

I was going to make a new account with my real details and just be very very careful, and hopefully it will survive! Although I realize there is no guarantee! |

That is why I am so confused, I'm not sure which is the greater risk.
Option A is to change the details on the MP registered account to my real details. The advantage is that the account is relatively stable and has good sales history and feedback, plus all legitimate items. The disadvantage is it started out as a stealth account and it could burn my clean details if it goes wrong.
Option B is to create a brand new account, using my clean real details. The advantage is that the account hopefully not be linked with any of my stealth accounts. The disadvantage is that new Ebay accounts are not very stable nowadays, and it might just get suspended for absolutely no reason at all.
I have been thinking about it for over 24 hours now and I'm still not sure. I think I'm maybe leaning towards Option B as it seems like it might be the better option long term, providing it doesn't get randomly banned in the first few weeks and sales |

If I was you I would start clean with real details, one thing you could also do before you start fresh, is try creatives on the current account, just as an experiment. |

I have never had any trouble making new accounts on ebay. My guess is because I use a different IP, Address and Paypal for each account, I dont use proxies, I use mobile internet, cafe internet, library, gym, residential internet.....etc.
Even when people were complaining that it was becoming hard to on this forum, I think they were somehow getting it linked, maybe with those proxies vpn....etc |

It always worked fine for me, there are people that are genuinely using those means to access Ebay, it would only be bad if someone had previously used those IPs and got banned? I would think |

Mine does, I used to use it to create high limit accounts (before ebay moved the goalposts) and then switch to mobile USB dongle after the first listing. It seemed to give me good stability compared to when I used to make them with VPN's or mobile. |

I also found Uaccount to be useful too, because they let you make 10 "savings" accounts which all have their own Acc and Sort numbers. A lot of people say Uaccount are unreliable too, but at one stage I had 9 different paypals linked with different names and I was pulling in thousands a day without any issues!
The problem with Uaccount is that Managed Payments won't accept them, so it only works for Ebay/Paypal setups | | All times are GMT -5. The time now is 02:31 PM. | |
