Account Restriction
Hello,
I have the following case:
In the beginning I didn't know exactly how things work and I made a private account, but because I had a limit of sales and products I could list for sale, I decided to make a business account.
I created a business account and it was limited, but I didn't know at the time that the reason was that if I wanted to sell the items in Germany I had to have a German VAT number.
Before I found out about the German VAT number I made a few more accounts which were restricted.
The last account I made was a business account and at the beginning I entered my Bulgarian VAT number, but it didn't work either and I couldn't sell on the German market. After a few conversations with e-bay representatives, I found out that without a German VAT number I cannot sell in Germany.
I registered the company in Germany, they provided me with a German VAT number and I entered it in e-bay, they removed the restrictions on the account and I even made a few sales without any problem.
Yesterday, I received messages from e-bay, that my account is restricted and they removed all my listings.
After several conversations with e-bay representatives, they told me that the restriction is permanent and there is no way they can remove it.
I understand the mistake with the previous accounts, but I didn't do anything to defraud, I just didn't know how things were.
I want to ask you:
Is there any way to get the restrictions off my last business account?
Is there any chance to sell on e-bay with this company at all?
Best Regards

·3 years agoThis is primarily a US seller forum you may want to try posting on the German.de domain/forum. Each country has some unique aspects with regards to eBay. You are in Bulgaria so you may have better luck posting your question on either the German domain or one of the other European domains.
