Permanent restriction?! Really?

[jayred_1]

Hi Everyone, 

So today I logged on to see a message from eBay saying that my seller performance was below standard, and my account had been permanently restricted!

The last time I sold anything was about 12 months ago, and there was an issue with the postage because I was away at the time - which I advised via the resolution centre and another where the buyer said he mysteriously 'didn't receive it'. Apart from that, 258 transactions and a member since 2003 .. 17 years!

I contacted the team via the online chat asking why this had happened .. this is the response : 

looking around eBay there are masses of people with negative feedback, that are still selling ... but I get banned! Sorry folks to have a rant , but I'm so aggrieved about this .. don't know where to go with it.

Unfortunately as eBay said selling and buying are different so -

“Apart from that, 258 transactions”

What eBay consider is that you only have 49 feedback as a seller, the other feedback is as a buyer, and of the 49 there are 6 bad feedback and your current rating is 75%.
