Additional Verification Code

[mortijon]

Is anyone else finding the additional verification process extremely frustrating ?

Since 29th June 2022, every time I use the app on either my phone or tablet, I have to sign-in and also verify the account using a code sent to email or my phone. Both my wife and myself use the same eBay account and I am now forever having to tell my wife a 6-digit code before she can get started and forever having to enter a code myself to do the most simple of tasks.

This is security gone mad, there must be a simpler way to avoid having to log back in and verify every time I use the app.

It sounds like you have Two-Factor Authentication turned on. I believe that is optional and can be turned off.

As this level of security being "madness", this seller might disagree:
