Aero Posted October 18, 2006 Posted October 18, 2006 ebay have banned my account. their reason? because i recently changed my screen name (on saturday) to "aerofreak26" as such they feel i am connected to an "aerofreak10" who has been banned apparently and think i am the same person. i have been using ebay for 3 or 4 years and as soon as i change my name they ass fuck me. i wouldnt mind but im not long after buying something and now they tell me it has been cancelled.... I ALREADY PAID FOR IT!!!!! Quote
Aero Posted October 18, 2006 Author Posted October 18, 2006 thought as much, have mailed the seller to see if he's posted it yet, or if he is likely to, or refund me. i cant wait for googles new service to start, will use it instead Quote
Tychoma Posted October 18, 2006 Posted October 18, 2006 Have you contacted them about this? It's a pretty reasonable assumption for them to make, you'd be pissed if a serial scammer wasn't caught and ripped you off. They must be able to find out that you aren't the same person if you email them. Quote
Aero Posted October 18, 2006 Author Posted October 18, 2006 yeah, i did contact them, but why would they assume that someone who's just changed their name but been an active member for over 3 years with a 97.8% rating with 100+ stars and a uk confirmed paypal address as well as a successful seller be a serial scammer? its not that logical, different name, address, password etc its pathetic. fuckers! i wouldnt mind as much if it wasnt for the item i bought, chances are it will take forever to get the money back if i ever do get it back Quote
Aero Posted October 18, 2006 Author Posted October 18, 2006 a love doll full of illegal drugs, some football tickets, 2 livers and a black baby from "madonna_sells_blackbabies" Quote
Big Bizang Posted October 18, 2006 Posted October 18, 2006 Interesting. What Ebay lacks in account management it makes up for in product diversification. And how! Quote
Nemo Posted October 18, 2006 Posted October 18, 2006 a love doll full of illegal drugs, some football tickets, 2 livers and a black baby from "madonna_sells_blackbabies" you got ripped off, bra. Quote
Aero Posted October 18, 2006 Author Posted October 18, 2006 i know, was in a rush so just grabbed the 1st 1 i saw, free postage tho, gotta count for something. Quote
Aero Posted October 19, 2006 Author Posted October 19, 2006 update- contacted seller, they have sent the item as they have recieved payment, that solves that problem atleast Quote
Aero Posted October 31, 2006 Author Posted October 31, 2006 update - ebay is still gay. i got my item on thursday, so thats good. however, ebay keep replying to me, no matter what i say back, with something along the lines of "we caanot lift the ban on this account until you request an appeal to the ban on the account for 'aerofreak10' if you do not have access to theregistered email address of this account, reply to this message" its a fucking farce. plus it means im gonna have to actually go shopping this christmas.

Aero Posted October 31, 2006 Author Posted October 31, 2006 well... i have a new address with a subscription email account, and this problem only occoured when i changed my screen name, so avoid aerofreak names and i'm in. it could be a competition, whoever comes up with the best name will get either an ST! platinum account paid for or the monetary equivilant into their paypal account, how could that NOT encourage ppl to be creative lol Quote
Nemo Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 http://www.valleywag.com/tech/ebay/ebay-bu...ding-211579.php im kind of glad not to be mod anymore, knowing what aero does to people who ban him from places on the internet. Quote
Aero Posted November 2, 2006 Author Posted November 2, 2006 you can't prove anything, that could have just as easily been aerofreak10 lol Quote
Big Bizang Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 I like the fact that it says they originally thought it was a transformer. The possibilities... Quote
Nemo Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 yeah, that megatron has been up to no good, ever since he lost that spinner rims auction to bumblebee. Quote
