Uk Sellers Account - Is Paypal Verification Necessary ?

[RichieL]

Guys,

In the process of setting up multiple ebay seller UK accounts, and
everytime i am asked to link a paypal verified account, which
i believe is the standard requirement since Mar 08 this year.

Or am i incorrect in saying this. I am sure this question has been
covered in previous posts but my real name has been banned
from Paypal, so can I use a false name but real account credentials
ie sort code and account number but false name as is the ebay
account to continue trading ?

Thanks for all your help

PS i cant belive if i want to set up eg 10 seller accounts i have
to go through the process of opening 10 current accounts or
savings accounts !! GIVE ME STENGTH !!! lol

Hi, yes you are correct thatyou now need to link a verified Paypal account with every Ebay account that you now open
And yes you can just use false name and address to register along with the real sort code and account number for bank.

That's right, every ebay account now needs to be linked to a verified paypal account. So for every ebay account you go through, you go through another bank account. A pain, but it's the sad truth.

You can use all ⊗⊗⊗⊗ details, yes. Entropay for your credit card, voipfone for your landline, and any bank account account (name doesn't matter). If you need more help, see the link in my sig!

Yeff & Mantisinc, Many thanks.

Mantisinc, I have used your method with great success, superb job
mate, entropay, brilliant along with voiceoverip for regional UK#
designated numbers.

Any suggestions on multiple bank accounts that are easy to set up ?

I have heard ING allow multiple savings accounts. I really can't
be arsed to walk round all the high street banks but do not
want to look too suspicious by setting up 5-6 savings accounts
under one name. Any suggestions ?

Thanks

Glad it was of use to you

As for bank accounts, I'm yet to come over that issue. The ING thing is only in the US, for us, we literally just have to go round opening new accounts.

Just make Cheques payable to mantisinc

Also, you may want to bear in mind that with abbey accounts, you can open up a secondary account in your account. I just popped into the bank, asked to open up secondary account, and that was it. Card and details through the post.

Also, if you tell them at the bank you want to open up another account to use paypal, they are fine about it. I just told them that I sell a lot online, and needed different paypal accounts for different sources of income. She was like, Oh yea, I totally understand how confusing it must be. Gulliable beeach :D

I got a new landline number in my house since renting out.
Will this be OK to verify new Ebay and Paypal?
