Dev API access registration and appeal both declined without any note to why
Like the many other posters on here, my request and appeal were both automatically declined with any reason to why. My use case fell into the allowed circumstances and was entirely personal use. Can a moderator please elevate my inquiry to a real person to review instead of AI automation?

I had the same issue, registered with 3 Gmail address' all the same thing. I vaguely remembered a mailer service doing this and their docs state that you cannot register with a public email domain (@gmail.com). With this in mind I used one of my custom domains (admin@mydomain.com) and wouldnt you know it i was accepted and got a welcome email this morning.
Its unfortunate that ebay uses automated responses with no information or context when trying to register. Hopefully this will help you and others.
