Abusive feedback
I received abusive feedback "lying scum" having had no contact with the buyer about a problem I reported this and was told it would not be removed as it was an opinion. I reportedagain and was told I was right and it would be removed but is still there and I don't trust them to remove it do I have any other options. Alan

MentorAug 9, 2026 at 12:41 PMI would say that is definately removable. As Vy says, and its not about the item sold which feedback has to be.

MentorAug 9, 2026 at 11:18 AMI'd say that was removable because its both abusive and offensive.
How long is it that eBay said they'd remove it?

MentorAug 9, 2026 at 10:13 PMeBay's conditions for feedback removal include "Personal attacks that could harm the reputation of the seller or their business and could not reasonably be viewed as constructive criticism".
Describing you as a "lying scum" is indisputably harmful to your reputation as a seller and can hardly be viewed as constructive criticism.
