Understanding Failed Cancellation and eBay Support Challenges
Summary: kus-3744 shared their experience of an eBay cancellation request being accepted but ultimately not processed. They faced challenges with inaccessible support services and no visible options to cancel the order. disneyshopper advised checking the purchase history for status and explained that cancellation requests depend on the seller's actions, especially if the item hasn't been shipped.
Hello everyone,
I recently encountered an issue where my cancellation request on eBay was accepted by the seller but ultimately failed. It showed as pending for four days, and now I am unable to open a dispute or contact eBay support as their service seems inaccessible. Additionally, the option to cancel the order is no longer visible.
Has anyone else experienced something similar? How did you manage to resolve the issue? What steps would you recommend for navigating situations where the expected support channels are unresponsive?
Looking forward to hearing your insights and experiences!

Mentor1 month agoBuyers can only REQUEST a cancellation. It is up to the seller to file the cancellation. Sellers are not obligated to do so, but most will if they have not yet shipped the item. Go to your Purchase history and see what the status says.

OP1 month agoHello i went to the purchase history and it said the cancel failed, but it said the seller accepted the cancellation though and it failed due to problems with refunding.
