No Fees for selling Clothing?

[vintagewatchpart]

So Ebay has abolished all fees for selling clothing on a private account.

Now more than ever surely the clamping down of businesses operating from private accounts has to increase?

I feel so sorry for those in this niche who trade legitimately as businesses who are competing with "private" sellers who just got handed a massive chunk of money.

National Insurance Number?

Yes sorry it is National Insurance Number.

[iluvneighbours]

Thank you 🙂

although on the HMRC web site

they issue a warning to sharing the number.

Ebay as a company have not stood up to explain which part they fall under.

Keeping your National Insurance number safe

To prevent identity fraud, do not share your National Insurance number with anyone who does not need it.

These organisations may need to know what your number is:

• HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC)
• your employer
• the Department for Work and Pensions (which includes Jobcentre Plus and the Pension, Disability and Carers Service), if you claim state benefits, or in Northern Ireland the Department for Social Development
• your local council, if you claim Housing Benefit, or the Northern Ireland Housing Executive
• Electoral Registration Officers (to check your identity when you register to vote)
• the Student Loans Company, if you apply for a student loan
• your pension provider if you have a personal or stakeholder pension
• your Individual Savings Account (ISA) provider, if you open an ISA
• authorised financial service providers who help you buy and sell investments like shares, bonds and derivatives - you can check if your provider is authorised

Nope sorry that link does not show ebay as required NI holder, youd have thought as the initiative ebay are embarking on , on behalf on HMRC , The main parties would be more proactive .

As surprising as other platforms seem ignorance yet as the calendar creeps forward and still no requests for action.

They are on that list it doea not give info on NINO on any conpnay on that list.

Reporting to HMRC NINO is requitred to identify the person nothing more name address may not identify that person.
