On Christmas Day eBay banned me for life
On Christmas day I received a nice email from eBay.
"We wanted to let you know that your account has been permanently restricted from selling because of activity we believe was putting the eBay community at risk. We understand this must be frustrating, and please know that our decision was not made lightly. Measures like this help keep our marketplace safe for everyone. Learn more about how and why accounts can be restricted.
Here’s what you should know You will no longer be able to use your account to sell on eBay and any new accounts you set up may also be restricted.
- Any fees paid or payable for listings that are ended and/or hidden from search will not be refunded or otherwise credited to your account.
You can still bid on and buy items from other sellers.To my certain knowledge I have done nothing to deserve this. I share an address with a dozen other people, perhaps they did something to black list our address, but I can only speculate. It is just as likely that ebay's 99% perfect automated systems flagged me in error.
