Hi all

 

I'm having grief with ebay at the moment - won't bore you with the details. It is a nightmare to contact them, as anyone knows who's ever tried... they don't seem to have a phone number, and searching round on the net, the odd one that does leak out as public knowledge is very quickly disconnected. I'm not sure of the legalities of that? I thought that any business operating online and taking payments for services HAD to have a phone number for complaints / problems?

 

Anyway, after a lot of searching around, I have found the following information. Before moderators panic and remove this post, I stress this is PUBLICLY AVAILABLE INFORMATION from the companies house website. It has cost me a couple of quid to get it, but it is in the public domain, so no panic about data protection issues please!

 

ebay UK limited registered address:

 

EBAY (UK) LIMITED

CARMELITE

50 VICTORIA EMBANKMENT

BLACKFRIARS

LONDON

EC4Y 0DX

 

company number is 03726028

 

There are 3 directors, 2 based in the USA and one here in jolly old england. His details are:

Not surprisingly, there are no phone numbers listed for ebay or carmelite or tjg sectretaries (ebay's company secretary - all based at the victoria embankment address), and mr McCullum's phone number is ex-directory.... ebay HATE being contacted by mere **** like us paying customers!

 

 

Perhaps any budding miss marples out there can add more info?
