I'm puzzled by eBay's update. I doubt they set out to lose customers. Somebody at eBay must have thought this was a good idea, didn't think it through, now it's hard for them to back down. It would only take a patch to cure this. I know nothing about software but used to work with super-humans who wrote software. I remember one guy being handed a Rubik's Cube, when they first came out. He completed it in 3 minutes. Wow. They hacked into a Hotel telephone system, we were staying in, just for fun. That's way above my brain power.

 

Anyway, back to eBay's app update. As mentioned before, I mainly used the website and just used the app for notifications. I know some people prefer the app. It's horses for courses. If you have the problem, please read through some of the posts.

I have no connection with eBay or work for them, apart from being a customer. If you contact eBay, be firm and express your feelings. Please bear in mind, the people at the other end are employees, just like you and me (until I retired). Please be polite and respectful. You’re more likely to be listened to.
