ABSOLUTELY **bleep** OFF!!!!

[trust_marty]

I sent a message to a seller asking if I could download and try the software before buying the system and got this message

"Your message can't be sent because it included an email Address"

I thought it was triggering on the @ symbol and removed it. THEN GOT BANNED FOR 7 DAYS!!!!!

So no warning like "YOU WILL BE BANNED FOR SEVEN DAYS IF YOU ATTEMPT TO INCLUDE AN EMAIL ADDRESSES" Just a big "**bleep** YOU" and now I can't

No, Just a big "**bleep**YOU" and straight into a 7 day communication ban. Now I can't repond to offers or inquiries that are waiting.

I complained and expected a sympathetic ear but was treated like "DON'T COME CRYING TO ME - 7 DAY BAN BABY 🙂 !!!"

Four hours later I tried to chat with complaints people. YOU WOULDN'T BELIEVE IT, I GO CUT OFF AND CHAT SESSION CLOSED. I BARELY GOT TO ANSWER MY QUESTION. Tried again and got "WE ALL GONE HOME FOR THE DAY MESSAGE".

Ebay, If you are trying to ALIENATE AND ANGER YOUR SELLERS, YOU ARE DOING A BLOODY GOOD  JOB!!!!

AFTER I SELL MY GOODS, I'M CLOSING MY ACCOUNT.  I've had enough of the rude uncaring attitude.

I get that you are annoyed with ebay but that is no reason to yell at the volunteers on the boards who try and help members.

We are not to blame for what ebay does.....and ebay does not even read the boards so you are not getting any message to them.

Having said that, ebay are really going over the top in their paranoia.....they seem to think that every message that is sent is trying to trade off ebay.

It might seem that way from your message though....what seller would let you try before you buy?  How do they know you will pay once you have downloaded the program.

Sorry, I thought this was an official eBay run message board. In that case, sorry for misdirected venting 🙂

It's generic software for an electronic software controlled relay module. The software is not what they are selling. It's the electronic module. The software is needed to control the electronics. If the software is useless or doesn't work (like many Chines-ium products, I've got to send it back - hassles!!)

Perfectly innocent try before you buy.

Thanks for your thoughts. 

I'll go try and contact eBay again..... again....

You are correct.
