imastawka · ‎17-02-2016

I thought it was against policy to create new id's to get around the BBL,

but for the life of me I can't find it. Scoured the A - Z to bits

Any help finding the link/policy would be great - Ta muchly

Thanks Harley, but that link is for ebay .com

But using that info, I found this on .com.au

http://pages.ebay.com.au/help/policies/multiple-accounts.html

What are the guidelines?

Allowed

Users may have multiple accounts on eBay. We understand that there are various reasons why someone would choose to have more than one account.

Not allowed

Registering new accounts or using other existing accounts to avoid buying and selling restrictions or limits or other policy consequences.

It is against policy as you have found.

Did you have someone successfully do it?

Yep. Too dumb to change the address.

Why wouldn't you remember someone who gave you so much grief?

I think they buy on a mobile - they never answer messages

Is there a manual report button? Or do I have to ring?

The 'report a member' in Help and Contact' drop down doesn't cover it

I had this happen some time ago and I was told by ebay to treat it as any other purchase and send the item. I said hang on your policy says they are not allowd to purchase under another ID once blocked. Well they couldn't give two hoots about it. Just told me if I received neg feedback to contact them.

imastawka · ‎17-02-2016

Well, that's just terrific - not

The problem is, they haven't paid........yet again!!

11 unpaids previously - just from me

I've told them I want payment by the a.m or I'll cancel the order

They're on the BBL regardless - again.

Also told them it was policy violation -reportable - just to put the wind up 'em.

You go girl.

As harley said, I have heard similar and I have also heard eBay having been contacted because many new ID's were opened but eBay eventually actioned to flag new accounts from I think their IP address or something that stopped them.

how can one work out who is who on the blocked bidder list as there is no list to identify the names surnames etc-if someone has been blocked five years ago i can't remember what their name etc is-any ideas?
