Unable to return product - disappeared from listings
Summary: dolphintuna is experiencing issues returning a purchased product due to errors with accessing return links and their order disappearing from listings. kat@ebay suggests that the item might have been purchased as a guest, and provides guidance on checking guest orders. Despite following this advice, dolphintuna encounters further difficulties with links not working. tressygirl offers a link explaining the process for opening a case with a guest purchase.
Hi
I purchased a product but want to return it.
Completed the return and was then sent an email with a link (presumably to a QR code to return the item). However, when I click on the link it states:
Something went wrong
It's not you, it's us. Please go back and try again.It's not you, it's us. Please go back and try again.
When I click on the link from the original purchase email it states:
Order not found
Unfortunately, there has been an error retrieving your order. If you need help, visit our
This feels incredibly dodgy that the order has disappeared from my purchases and returns with no way to now return it.
Has anyone else experienced this specific issue. Is it a issue with the website or an dodgy seller?
Any assistance gratefully received.

Hi @dolphintuna ,
Thank you for your post.
Its likely you may have purchased the item as a guest rather than your regular account. Please see the details here to check for orders on guest accounts.
Thank you,
Kat

OP3 weeks agoHi there
I have received an email but it keeps saying that the link doesnt work? It says:
Hmmm… can't reach this page
Check if there is a typo in www.ebay.co..uk.
DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN
I've asked for another link to be sent and that says the same thing.
What can you please advise?
Many thanks
