Wrong language.

In my account settings the location/ language is set to Belgium(Dutch) but all communication I receive from Ebay is in French. Is there anything I can do to fix this?

@timru7   I recommend asking for help on the  Belgium site community board>

 

https://community-benl.ebay.be/  

 

This is a volunteer board on eBay.com the US site.  

 

You can do what I do when viewing sites in other languages and use Right Click on your mouse when using Chrome and select translate.  Or copy and past the message into google translate.

Hi @timru7 

 

That's interesting considering Belgium recognizes 3 official languages, Dutch, French, German.  Try switching to German and see what happens, that's what I would do just to test thing out.

 

Also, you may want to ask your question the UK Community, this is the US site.  Here is the link for your convenience:  Home - UK eBay Community

They are registered on the Belgium site, not the UK site.  This is the link I provided for the Belgium community>  https://community-benl.ebay.be/

 

When you log in to the Belgium site you can choose between French and Nederland's  ( Dutch)   Not sure why eBay only allows two languages but it's an easy fix with a browser plugin.

Ah, my bad, thanks for pointing that out! 

I just followed the "ask the community" button in the app. Guess that it only points to the US forum, instead of being region specific 🤔. Will take my question over there!
