Dismayed to find out account has been restricted due to being linked to old partners accounts from a couple of years ago. eBay’s normally helpful support has been surprisingly dismissive of even communicating with me. Is there anything at all that can be done?
Wow that sucks.
Unfortunately, I this is probably just a simply a number game on eBay's part. I suspect they have years of research showing that once an account runs into a problem, the likelihood of 'linked' accounts also having issues is unacceptably high.
You would be surprised how many sellers over the years have posted here to say something alone the lines of "my account got suspended, so I started selling on my wife's/son's/girlfriend's/mother's account". So it's not as if their fears are unfounded.
I suspect that normal eBay customer support probably does not have the authority to undo suspensions, and you'll probably need to reach out through Facebook. But I would not pin all my hopes on that - because let's face it, even the people whose accounts are still 'linked' probably contact support and claim they aren't together anymore in hopes of getting their account restored.
