Hi,I am a UK citizen resident in the UK. I have been using my ebay account for 22+ years. I have bought and sold many items and have 100% feedback. During these 22+years I spent a few years working in Thailand. As per ebay recommendations I updated my personal details with my Thai address. Having returned to the UK, I now want to revert my personal details to use my UK home address. After several weeks trying to get this change made via the website and failing, specialist agents at ebay say I cant revert to my UK address! Note this is not an IT issue, a block has been imposed by ebay on my account to prevent this change.This means I will always appear as resident in Thailand, I can't sell without joining Payoneer, and I can't get payments to my bank account directly. There are probably also tax consequences. The solution suggested by ebay is to open a new account! As you can imagine, losing 22+years of positive feedback as a result of a block imposed by ebay is not acceptable.Why have ebay blocked me being able to revert my address?Thanks in advance for any help here
Hi big_shauny, thanks for your question.
Since Managed Payments became available, country of registration cannot be change. As in, if you're registered from the UK, you cannot change it if you move to Spain, Italy, Thailand, or Canada, for example. I understand where you're coming from, but the information you've been given is correct. If you wish to learn more about this, you can click here.
Thank you,
