Ebay Issues....Groan!!

ECBG — Tue, 19 Apr 2022 01:40:46 GMT

I probably created my own issue, but using different browsers (same password and user name) has kicked me out on Ebay.

They're afraid I've been hacked because I sometimes I use my cell when DH uses the computer! Give me a break!

They no longer text you with a code! (Or give you the "button".)

I lost something I wanted today

Am I the only one on gravel here?

That's frustrating! I've sold on Ebay for 26 years and use laptops, a PC, cell phone and tablets and havent had the lockout issue.

Have you tried calling them? It should only take them a few minutes to call you back after you click on the Help & Contact button.

Sweaters

Many thanks. There are several items I want. I got to check out as a guest a time or two. I was adding to my sweater collection.

Well that stinks, had no idea eBay thought it a good idea to put customers off for a couple days. Glad you were able to bid as a guest. Hope you enjoy your sweaters! Vintage or contemporary?

@ECBG If you think eBay was a mess, you ought to see what I created with the IRS using two tablets to do my taxes. I got totally locked up. Put it down and went to bed in disgust. The next day miraculously everything was fixed. They really wanted my money.

If they would only text a code, sadly no. They're helping us-over the edge!

@rockygems123 As far as I know, there is no way to call any longer, and because there is no way of contacting ebay, it is no longer user friendly.

@ECBG

Ebay just isn't as user-friendly as it used to be!

Twice in the past year I have sold something on Ebay, sent it out First Class Mail with tracking, and the packages got mis-routed or temporarily lost. You could follow the tracking sequence, so there was no doubt that it had been mailed.

Nevertheless, Ebay put a "hold" on my funds for the amount of the sale while things got sorted out!

WHY would Ebay think I had anything to do with the USPS, or my money should be held hostage because of their delivery issues??? I have NOTHING to do with how the post office delivers ... but they thought it was okay to "blame" me and put a hold on my funds?

To me, it made no sense whatsoever!

@Tinkrbl44

I was able to sign in last night! I had offered a price and the seller emailed me. I got in through the email!

Who ever wrote their software........just won't go there!
