Hi everyone,I’m writing from my brother’s account to try to understand what the real criteria are that eBay uses when it comes to account checks. I’ll try to explain it quickly: I had an eBay account with which I’d maybe done about twenty buyer transactions, no more, no less (never sold anything). The account was linked to a prepaid card (Revolut) that sometimes acts up when there are too many monthly payments. My only action was to change the payment method to another prepaid card to complete a purchase. Result? The next day I find myself permanently banned without even being able to defend myself or prove that it’s still me. Doesn’t that seem a bit excessive to you?The thing is, I’m relatively unconcerned about the account, since from what I’ve understood there’s no way to restore it anyway. What I care about is knowing whether the orders I placed will still go through or not. I have one item paid for but not shipped, and another item I bought as a pre-order three months ago that shows as shipped (according to the seller’s policy, since it’s a physical store) but would in fact arrive at the end of August.In theory, sellers should still be obliged to honor the transaction, right?
