Mentor5 months agoNo CS agents give their name, it's not required and wouldn't verify anything anyway. If they say that their name is Joe Smith how do you know if it is or isn't?
If you want to close your account you can use the link on the following eBay guidance page to start the account closure:

Mentor5 months agoeBay need your full name to verify who is calling. You don't need to know the agent's full name.
eBay is right to protect agents' personal information when dealing with the public. Any business you have is with eBay, and their full contact details are given in the user agreement.

Mentor5 months agoEbay CS will have your personal details so they can check they are speaking to account holder.
Even if they told you there name, you won't know who they are.
You seem disappointed with ebay, so maybe closing-account is best, but it is your choice.
You could leave it open and still have option to use it again at a future date.

Mentor5 months agoYou think ebay agents should speak to you about your account without verifying who you are ?
Any company that speaks to you about your account without ensuring that you are genuine then is not doing their job properly.
