Unread Messages Count on eBay App Wrong

[pierangler]

The unread message count on my eBay mobile app shows 19 unread messages.  But I have opened and read or deleted all of my messages.  Is there a way to clear this error?  Really annoying to see unread messages when there are not any.

Hi

I had the same problem, (45 messages showing as unread)  so I just went through all my messages in the eBay app, there were lots in bold and I just opened each individually and it has cleared them from showing as unread, I had to go back to June 2022.

hope this helps.

Exact same issue:  19 unread messages.  I started a thread earlier.  Ebay needs to fix this bug.

That worked for me.  I had to scroll back into 2022 to find all of the unread messages.  Must be a problem with the mobile app - no unread messages on the regular website version.

I had a few of them too.  I ended up deleting them to get rid of them.

I had a message that said new but no message appeared when I clicked on it

I now have 2 new messages with nothing in them!
