ebay have inactive email address as my contact details
Summary: biglad141 is experiencing issues updating their email address on eBay, as the platform indicates the new email is already in use. Despite having only one account, an AI bot suggests removing the email from another account. **peaseblossom** advises contacting eBay through a mobile device using a provided link.
within my contact details , ebay has an old hotmail account , which i updated to my gmail account a couple of years ago . when logging on ebay.co.uk, it asked if my contact details are correct , when i attempt to edit my email details to my gmail email i previously supplied , it states " this email is in use on another account" and i'm thinking " yeah, by me"... so i contact " customer service" and a AI Bot is attempting to drive me insane by repeating how i need to " remove the other account that is using the email address" , i keep shouting back , that only have had one account for 20 years ! can anyone help please ?
