Ebay problems.

[waz000000]

Hi all I would appreciate some advice on what to do about ebay after they suspended my account ill paste everything below on the email conversation ive been having with them:

 

1st email: from me

If you check the paypal history and contact the buyer of the

iphone you will see the item did not sell through ebay!

Paypal witheld the funds and was unwilling to send £280 worth of goods

without getting paid for them, so i contacted the buyer and we agreed a

refund after paypal refused to release the funds.

The item then sold on Leicester Gumtree at another date.

I recieved no money from ebay for my item as it did not sell due to

paypal refusing to give me the money.

all this can be checked by contacting the buyer of the item and checking

paypals records.

 

Their 1st reply:

 

Hello Warren,

Thank you for your email. I understand that you are concerned about the

fees charged for your iphone that did not sell. I am happy to assist you

further with this.

Warren, please note that as you have not completed the transaction, you

are eligible for the Final Value Fee credit. For this, you need to open

an unpaid item case in My eBay. So, please do not worry about it.

Please go through the following steps in order to get the Final Value

Fee credit:

1. In order to open a case, go to My eBay > Account > Resolution Centre.

If you face any problems whilst receiving your Final Value Fee credit

then please write back to us with the confirmation so that we can

further look into the matter.

2. You can open an unpaid item case 7 days after the listing has ended.

(You don't have to wait 7 days if you and the buyer have agreed to

withdraw from the purchase, or the buyer is no longer a registered

member.) You must do this within 45 days.

3. You can close the case after the buyer has responded at least once.

4. If the buyer doesn't respond, you can close the case after seven days

of filing it.

5. If you don't close the case within 60 days of the end of the listing,

it will be closed automatically without a credit.

Opening a case triggers an email to the buyer to ask them to pay for the

item, send us proof they've already paid, or communicate directly with

you. Alternatively, if you've agreed to cancel the transaction, the

email asks the buyer to confirm this is the case.

Hi,

Ebay wont let me as the account is blocked.

 

Their final reply:

 

Thanks for your email. I understand your concern in regard to the

suspension on your account.

I appreciate the opportunity to assist you as quickly as possible.

On reviewing your account, I found that it was suspended and we have

referred your details to a debt collection agency because we didn't

receive payment for your eBay fees. Your account has been outsourced to

the following collection agency:-

IJ UK 0870 010 3022

As your account has been outsourced to a collection agency, there are

some collection charges added to your payment amount. Please contact the

agency directly to make the payment.

Should have any difficulties contacting the agency, please let us know

by sending us an email at the following address:

[email protected]

If you have already made a payment to the agency, please be aware that

it may take up to 10 days for this to be shown on your eBay account.

Once your payment has cleared, we will reinstate your account if

non-payment was the only reason for the suspension of your account.

Even though your account is suspended, you can still view your account

status page by following these steps:

1. Click "Site Map" at the top of the eBay homepage.

2. Click "View Your Account Status" under "Selling" and sign in.

3. Click "Continue" when a message appears telling you that your account

is suspended.

The next page will display your account status. To view a previous

invoice, select it from the drop down menu.

Thank you for your cooperation in this matter. I hope that this

information is helpful. Please let us know if you have any further

questions.

Hi Warren--Although there are a number of experienced posters here with good knowledge of ebay,it will probably pay you to post this on the forums on ebay at

 

eBay Forums: Community Question and Answer Board

 

The poster 'Bella' is the paypal expert there and should be able to help you.

Hi thanks for that, i tried to post a message but it wont let me as im suspended. Seems to me like im blocked from resolving anything until i pay money i dont owe

You could use a friend's ebay ID to post there on their PC or use a friend's or a public computer to set up a new account and then post.

 

I'd post your question on there for you but wouldn't have the time to post your replies to the inevitable questions that you would have to answer so going down to your local library or nearest Internet cafe is the best way to go.

Hi.

The only way is to pay the fees to the dca and then file dispute for none payment and or the buyer did not want the item through ebay, then they will credit that money back. thats the only way.

 

You can phone ebay direct 0208 080 2105

 

Hope this helps.
