Dear fellow sellers, I am telling this horrible story so that something might be done to eBay and PayPal to punish them or make them change their ways. I have been an eBay and PayPal user for about 3 years, and for the last 8 months it feels like I am nothing but harassed. About 40 days ago my PayPal and eBay accounts were frozen, thus cancelling all bids and sales on any items and causing harm to my selling reputation.
This one really upset me, as I complied with their requests and sent a copy of my bank statement, driver's license and utility bill to confirm my identity and address. Time elapsed: a week and a half of lost business. Now this is the real kicker. On Jan 1 they did this to me again, wiping out $1800.00 of sales and buyers who had already bid on my items, costing me $1800.00 plus any other lost business I would have gotten, all because this time they requested a copy of my social security number!
I refused to give it, as they have enough of my info! Needless to say, I am still out of business because of this unfair extortion practice by eBay and PayPal. I am blowing fumes out of my ears trying to figure out how I am going to pay my bills now. If there are any persons out there who can help me stick it to them, please help me. eBay and PayPal are the devil in sheep's clothing!
