New PayPal to old eBay
 

I currently have a stealth eb & pp account, but forgot my details on the PayPal account. I am just coming up to my £1900 limit. Is there anyway I can start & add a new PayPal account to existing eBay account??

You can't link two PP accts to one EB but you can have multiple EB accounts to one PP.

Create another PP/EB acct or provide docs to lift the limits

I can't provide docs as a stealth account with all stealth details. No access to address anymore & forgot the date of birth. I have a 200 items a month selling limit which is a lot better than the others I have. You see where I'm coming from?? :-)

Open a business account in the same details as the eBay and use that instead. Problem solved and you didn't break PayPal rules. PayPal allows you to have 1 personal and 1 business account.

add a new pp to existing eba?? or brand new eb & pp?? if the latter then i wouldnt have my 200 selling limit to begin with would i??

The first one. That's why I mentioned "PayPal rules".

Can't have your Cake and Eat it too my friend. Also suggest that you keep all Stealth information written down some where. Just gonna have to go with a new Stealth Account and move forward, no sense in looking back and wondering what if.

Why are you wanting to open a new paypal account?

Send in the docs to lift the receiving limit.

He says that he forgot the details on the PayPal account. So opening a business PayPal would get around that and give him a new £1900 limit without sending in anything.

If it is just the dob that has been forgotten then this would not be an issue.

I really cant understand why folk dont keep records of all stealth info - it's fairly important.

i made this account without even knowing about ebay stealth a long time ago!! Since then i have made more accounts & am nurturing them but none of them have over 100 selling limits on and dont want to mix up my items on other accounts. how do i open a new pp & attach to old ebay? thanks guys u been helpful

Open a new business PayPal account like you would a personal... give them the information requested and that is it. The you add this PayPal account to the "payment address" field when you are listing items on eBay, and away you go. Since the information will match on the eBay and the PayPal account, PayPal should not give you any problems about any of that.

Opening a new paypal is a short term solution, if any.

What happens when this account approaches £1900? Ditch both accounts and start again?

you can mess around as much as you want, 200 selling limit is not that much so , if you have other accounts concentrate on them, it will be better than starting a fresh and better than wasting any more time on this account.

Still create a new stealth but build that up slowly.

Also learn from this.

While creating new accounts (and WRITING down all info), you can do what Elijah said - in your auction creating listings, just sub in the new pp address. Continue as usual - when you hit limits on the new pp....well that will be another problem
