Ebay deleting my services under Encouraging illegal activity policy
Hi
below message got from today
You listed a service to bypass an activation lock, in other words a lock considered a kill-switch option. We appreciate that you chose to utilize our site, but we must ask that you please not relist in this case.
But the problem is i didn't list any services to bypass activation lock
i uploaded 2 services i provided through ebay. That is mobile phones carrier unlock service which is legal in USA. Clearly those are not bypass services to kill switch active phones
at the end i see
This determination was made by a customer service agent.
waiting for better explanation from ebay supporter

·2 years agoeBay is removing all phone unlocking services from the platform. Its nothing about your location, or your contact info or paypal or anything like that. They are just removing all phone unlocking services, killstitch or not, frp network lock csc change whatever whatever even the credits for phone service tools are being removed. Forget about selling these services on ebay they are over... sorry to say, dont be tempted to relist any service like this even remote service as you do. If you keep listings like this they will just suspend you for a week then a month then forever.

Your listings violated policy. This is why they were removed. They may even have suspected that the items are counterfeit, especially at the prices you are asking. I wouldn't relist them again as you will jeopardize your account. When eBay removes an item for sale, it's usually for a good reason.
Happy Selling

Your listing didn't follow our Encouraging illegal activity policy. Encouraging or enabling illegal activity is not allowed

The reason for i posted in this forum those are not a service to bypass kill switch services
bypass activation kill switch service means remove google lock/remove icloud
and i didn't list any of them

·2 years agoYou can argue your point all day long. End result, this is eBay's playground they make the rules.
Accept it and move on.

If you keep listing them, you could be suspended permanently.

They could very well be legal in the USA but you are in Sri Lanka
How are you able to use eIS when it is only available to sellers in the United States?

·2 years agoOk. .. So what. You are in Sri Lanka and drop shipping items you do not own.
Only sellers in the United States can ship with eIS.

OP2 years agono drop shipping here
i'm providing a remote network unlock service

·2 years agoIf you are not drop shipping then you should use your location as Sri Lanka Not Washington, United States.
If you are using a location somewhere in the United States and you are actually in Sri Lanka then, yes you are drop shipping.

·2 years agoYou listed under Specialty Services category.
No item description, just the title saying "Unlock Service".
In the photos you listed your Whatsapp number, which is a violation in itself for off-eBay sales.
Don't be surprised if your other listings are removed and your entire account shut down.

OP2 years agoIn the title mentioned " Network unlock Service" and item description was not empty

·2 years agoThe listings have been removed so all I could see was the cached version, which for the second listing pictured (the only one I looked up), there was no description.
Either way, the description posted in your screenshot does not help your case.

·2 years agoLooks like 2 more listings were removed, 7 remaining.
Did you end those listings @sida_rand or is eBay actively removing them?

Well, it looks like you got them all. I see 0 Active now. At least there's that...
wastingtime101
·2 years agoI think they were hidden by eBay @mtgraves7984 , not by the OP, based on screenshots with the red banner shown above. In other words, OP got socked with policy violations on every listing.

My every listing has included in
title Sim unlock service/Network unlock service and a description

·2 years agoI think that eBay has made it very clear why your listing was removed.
The service you were offering (Sim unlock service/Network unlock service) is not allowed to be sold.
