eBay users need to have a valid phone number on file

[flagy_shop]

Hi guys.

So Im having this issue, when try to list an item or buy or even bid on an item this error come up:

"To help provide a safe trading environment, eBay users need to have a valid phone number on file. Please verify or update your phone number. For more details, see our article on updating your personal information.{e178572-1238869x}"

My phone number is already verified, I even bought brand new phone number and updated it with it but the same problem, contacted eBay support several times but they were useless honestly .

anyone have any clue on this one. or it is just an ebay glitch. thanks

Yeah and some people even forget(or have convenient memory loss) to update their  personal  ship to address as they "nomad" from place to place -  heck only had 21 different mailing addresses since graduating college in '67.  Been at this one since 1996 (before eBay time) - got my second  telephone # on a Nokia  flip phone in 1998 - still have the  same two contact #s
