Pushing my luck???
 

So I nearly hit my limit on one pay pal account (got to £1,500) and stopped.

I knew id be asked for id, which is a hastle to get, and expensive (but worth it if you make alot of £)...

I opened another pay pal account wth the same name and address, and carried on selling, buyers paying into the new account.
The only drawback is i cant withdraw to my bank account, but thats ok as i also buy on ebay.

So im now on my 4th pay pal account using the same ebay account, why havent ebay picked up on this? Is it because i open my new paypal accounts using a different home pc account so pay pal/ebay dont track me?

Has anyone else used this and had luck?

If anyone has, maybe ill delete the thread from prying pay pal eyes!

Consider yourself partly lucky and partly in problem. Ha I have done this - is the problem with your pp (you said you are on your 4th pp) that they keep limiting your cash?

Yes eb might be ok for a long time.

What i dont do is get near the £1,900 limit, i finish each new account on £1,000, then forget about them.
I feel lucky so far, the obvious way to solve the 'problem' is to give them 'what they want' ....but its very easy to open a pp aco****, can be done in 5 minutes for free.

Have you tried to withdraw from all those functional pp's yet?

No, there not attached to a bank account,
I have to send the money to another p pal account if i wanted to withdraw (thats linked with another ebay account).

Hi. If you get a manual review ever and the person is a bit alert, they gonna see whats going on and close you down.

Either get you limits lifted or get plenty of bank accounts or have some backup accounts coz if they clock, your closed.

I feel its better to get limits lifted even if it is costing. You are obviously making some going through that many accounts, so get it done and you can chill a little.

You are gonna have to work something out as its not good throwing away accounts like that - anyway, the limit gets reset yearly so keep them.

I have plenty of accounts all selling, thanks everyone for your input.
Good forum here.
