eBay

Used to sell on ebay but no more as refuse to give ebay my details.

ebay is not my employer but just a selling platform, HMRC are not my employer but deal with my yearly earnings where i pay no tax what so ever after calculating my way.

so now i cut off my nose as i dont sell on fleabay anymore unless collected and cash.

Not always sold on fleabay and feedback is mostly purchases but 24 years down the drain as i fear i no longer want to be a part of ebay, i even set up another account to purchase.

So, i am putting to test small funds to see how long they hold this for, they have £12 and on hold, as far as i am concerned they can stick it where the sun dont shine as i have no issues in loosing this but just curious on how long they will actually hold, steal my money. Its Blackmail from ebay.

i have not looked to any contract but guess they have dropped it in there somewhere.

So even when you look after your yearly tax return and never paid tax as never earn enough, these clowns still ask for NI no..Blackmail..

Hopefully some big concern, collective will fight them in court over this, but we have no chance.

i now purchase a lot more from amazon ..

"ebay is not my employer but just a selling platform, HMRC are not my employer but deal with my yearly earnings where i pay no tax what so ever after calculating my way."

Interesting, perhaps everyone should calculate their own tax liability.

HMRC determine a person's tax liability after a self assessment is completed if you are trading and receive income (not profit) over £1000. As you intimated in a later thread you were trading - "..... long hours for a few qid here and there..HMRC owe me.. i have always calculated my incoming and provides little income" If your statement is correct then it would probably have been in your interest to register and submit a self assessment; you would be able to claim your expenses back thus improving your income (or reducing your losses).

You were producing vinyl decals and with eBay sales of just short of 8,000 and with healthy sales over the last six months if eBay were to report you as non-compliant with providing the information requested this could raise a red flag with HMRC. It may be in your interest to register for self assessment for the 24/25 tax year whilst there is still time.
