New ask Hacker News story: Tell HN: eBay doesn't allow changing country
Tell HN: eBay doesn't allow changing country

On 2025-05-30, I received an email from eBay saying "Peter, are you still using your account?" I got a security code by email, and successfully spoke to a nice man from Florida on the phone. I noticed that my address has changed, because my parents sold their house in France and moved to New Zealand. So I updated my address as well. On 2025-05-31, I received another email from suspension@ebay.com saying "MC092 FPA NOTICE: eBay Registration Suspension - User Agreement - Abusing eBay - peterburk" The first thing I did when I turned 18 years old was to open accounts on eBay and PayPal using my old iBook G3 (before even going downstairs to open birthday presents). And now all my 88 positive reviews are for nought, because eBay blocked me. If anybody reads this, please let me know an email address in eBay so I can contact a real human to verify that my account is real. This is not AI, this is not a drill, this is the real world and life is just a little complicated.
