Getting kicked off ebay?!
« on: July 16, 2020, 07:08:32 AM »
I have had an account with ebay for a bunch of years and have randomly bought things, normal, everyday items, not multiples or anything like that. Last week I bought a watch, around $100, and then a few minutes later I got an email saying my account was suspended for violating site policies, and then it got closed completely. What in the world?! Anything to do? I tried emailing them and they said they don't need to tell me why it was closed..

Please help! Thanks!

If it makes you feel better, I've been banned from eBay literally thousands of times. Just order as a guest or start a new account with a different email address.
Don't ask stupid questions and you won't get stupid answers

Same. I had an account for 15 years, ordering here and there. Got banned once for buying a game console and that was it.

I make orders now as a guest but the ebay bucks days are over  :(
If it's not free shipping it's not worth it.

2 accounts, one for buying and one for selling.

Got to speak to a supervisor and ask whats going on, push your way through.
 There's some hope if you didn't do something wrong.

How do I contact a supervisor?
