eBay Farberware 6 piece setting portable dishwasher

This item was returned to the seller by the post office. The USPS never left me a notice on my door nor did they knock on my door bc I work from home and am always home during the day. I contacted seller as eBay advised who had both my money and my item. The seller did not answer any of my emails through eBay and by the time I got eBay involved they claimed the 30 days had passed and I needed to work it out with the seller who refuses to respond to me bc he has my money and the item.
I have a decades long spotless records with ebay purchases as a buyer.
Their customer service representatives so called all lie tell you one thing then send you an email telling something completely different.

Desired outcome: eBay either should refund my money or I will close my eBay account.

eBay ebay stole from me and removed my negative feedback of bad seller

milstuff22 a seller on ebay sent a controller that never show up but it say's it did but I meet the mail man that day and he had my other stuff but no controller so I know it did not make it and was shocked to see it sayed it had been delivered that day. ebay gave me no refund and removed the neg. feedback from milstuff22. I say go to Amazon better deals on food and candy always better then ebay. I am done with ebay will go to Amazon they leave me no choice. ebay has loop holes for scammers and I will only name one but their are 5 I have personally had happen to me. They can remove themselves as a registered user and come back latter and you can't leave feedback. ebay protects scammers it's worse then dose nothing to stop them. I can't leave feedback on any scammers that scammed me ebay won't let me and I went to look up these sellers on my ebay history for this complaint and it has been removed all I can say is WOW this is worse then I thought. Ebay is not a safe place to buy from and they don't seem to care.

Desired outcome: I want Ebay to be a safe place to buy from

Update by ebay bad
Apr 19, 2022 11:30 pm EDT

Update milstuff22 is a good seller who did not steal from me it was the mailman that did this. Sorry milstuff22 I know now you were a victim like me and I'm sorry. ebay even right now is doing thing to hinder my feed back of bad sellers and so is amazon even more so. The milstuff22 incident was different from the bad sellers that you can't leave bad feedback on first by having a waiting period then after being timed out saying (It looks like you already left feedback or you waited longer than our policy allows) ORDER DATE

Apr 04, 2022 I tried to leave feedback on 4/19/22 and got the message above so I took to long. I would tell you the name of this seller but he didn't do anything wrong to me. I would list the names of past bad sellers but my history is lost so I can't. Despite everything I am still using ebay as when I put something in the cart the price dose not change unlike on amazon where it dose.

eBay Ebay tracks us with emails

Most emails from Ebay contain tracking pixels. Also known as web beacons, these secretive codes are embedded invisibly and are designed to collect IP address, device and browser details, and other personal info. You do not need to click any link. These codes auto execute themselves as soon as you open these emails. And every time and everywhere. Even after you forward these emails to somebody else, (s)he will be tracked, even not an EBay user. Unlike cookies, there are no requests for immediate consent nor these are acceptable substitute for read receipt as 'where's, 'when's and device details are being sent. Intact, tracking pixels violate all privacy regulation I am aware of.
After years of reports to Ebay's customer service, domain registrant, admin, tech and abuse departments, a recent email refers to their privacy statemeant, a standard PR pitch, which is explicitely marked as not a substitute for an active, immediate, affirmative consent as per existing privacy laws.
Please do not trust most corporate emails.
Stay safe!

eBay Horrible overseas service

Parts of an email I sent today to EBAY. Sorry it's jumbled I cut and paste the sections. I am NOT a hater and respect all cultures. But I have had too many bad customer experiences and it's gone on for quite a while.

Overseas service is deplorable. As a customer, I should be given the following:
-Accurate and consistent information about my account
-Professionalism
-Acceptable soft skills
-Honesty
-In addition to this,
I do not feel I should be put on speaker, my entire call played for surrounding service representative while hearing laughter
I do not feel I should be put on mute without my consent
Literally told to hang up and call back to reach a USA trained rep. Can you even imagine telling that to a customer?
Being put on hold without asking to put me on hold
Being put on hold for at least 6 minutes (which I have timed, several times) without coming back periodically and refreshing call
Experiencing Sarcasm
Being put on hold and conveniently "losing" my call. A personal favorite. Trust me, it's happening. Overseas management is also deplorable.
Why aren't your calls pulled by your managers and audited for performance opportunities? How about silent monitoring? Do your "managers" know how to do these skills? I doubt it.
· Why do I have to wait 15 minutes to reach a manager, only to be treated even worse?
· Why aren't more surveys being sent out? Surveys should be issued on every call (like Amazon.com). If they are being sent automatically, they are somehow being suppressed intentionally. Also, they should NOT be going to the respective managers. A manager's job performance is typically measured by the performance of the representatives they manage. Why document poor performance representatives they manage?
· Surveys should go to a NON-PARTIAL team who documents and measures performance via surveys. You really should model Amazon's customer service. It's stellar, and consistent information is typically given to the customer. This happens overseas, and abroad.

Desired outcome: train your representatives and managers abroad

eBay Account - permanent suspension

eBay asked me documents to provide the proof of merchandise that I have in my possession. I provided all that they requested. They approved everything. I put a first listing and received following message soon after:
"We wanted to let you know that you have been temporarily restricted from selling and buying on eBay because of concerns about your seller account. This must be frustrating, but measures like these help keep our marketplace safe for everyone."
I wrote a message to eBay costumer support and they sent me a questionnaire same as the first time. Soon after in about 15 minutes I received a following answer:
"Thank you for contacting eBay. My name is ____ and I'll be glad to address your concern.
I understand that you are concerned regarding the suspension placed on your account. As we mentioned previously, we do not make decisions like this lightly, so we have spent some time reviewing your case.
Building a trusted marketplace is our first priority. As such, we suspend any account that poses a risk to that trust. Your account has been suspended because the pattern of activities we have witnessed present a risk to our eBay community.
Edvinas, I would like to inform you that this suspension is permanent. You will not be able to participate in any buying/selling activities on eBay. In addition, any other accounts you own, or that are associated with this account, will also be suspended/restricted.
While we know this is not the response you wished to receive, there is no further opportunity for appeal on this decision.
I highly appreciate your co-operation and understanding in this matter.
So I put my time going through process requesting selling limits sent everything they asked just to receive that I permanently suspended.

eBay Customer service

There is NO accountability at ebay, the supervision team coaches employees to not transfer calls and penalizes employees who do, this can be confirmed a few different ways, the recorded calls between ebay and me you can hear this coaching, this can also be confirmed via current and former employee reviews left online. My phone records will confirm that since 7-27-21 ebay has called me 198 times totaling about 2000 minutes or 33 hours they've kept me on hold or transferring to other employees or hanging up. Since the fraudulent defect on 12-28-21 there are 20 calls with 5 hangups a supervisor named Jasmine telling me she isn't allowed to investigate and doesn't have access to information. These employees laugh, mock and lie about their customers and its intentional, it's not possible to be as bad as they are unless it's intentional. They are either the worst trained employees in the history of the world or its intentional. BTW multiple employees write about lack of training in their reviews. When you Google ebay customer service reviews, you'll see 1000s very similar to mine.

It's 4 am and I'm up pacing the floor again worry about how I'm going to pay my bills, it's been this way for 5 straight months. I shouldn't have to be afraid of bills but ebay customer support tells you they're not going to help you then they don't. I've been hung up on by ebay employees at minimum 5 times this week alone for absolutely no reason, they've hung up on me probably 20 times total over the 5 months of he'll they've dished out because you report to them their site is broke, every report makes them more vicious and abusive. They lie in writing and lie on telephone, this can absolutely be proven via their email chain and recorded calls.

invested a lot of money these last 20 yrs on product with intent of early retirement as a ebay seller but it's not what I expected, in fact I've never experienced so much stress and frustration, I honestly felt like I was going to have a heart attack on 2 separate occasions. Here's some of the examples of customer support I've received. My 1st call was 7-27-21 I'm a brand new seller on this date being unfamiliar with site I listed a 70 pound item through ebay scanner but shipping listed as 1 Oz, It got a instant bid so I called ebay, the call last 63 minutes and went unresolved, I literally had to cancel my 1st sale because they wouldn't advise, from there it's one failure after another.

Nobody can explain why I got less views using "promoted listings" I'm paying them for these promotions and NEVER sold one item, they won't explain, they just tell me take better pictures and use better key words, I ask how that has anything to do with views and more than once they've hung up on me. I KNOW my pictures are good but I take their advice 😨 and use the photo generator that takes away background, it's literally so broke its leaving my items in fragments, it took a month to even get it actually looked at, they then told me don't use their photo editor as my pictures are very good anyway SMH next up is the scanner on their app listing my items in wrong category, keep in mind I only sold on ebay for 5 months, 3 of those months I have been reporting scanner and even hand entered UPC codes listing my vinyl records as CD, this is a huge problem but it's still unresolved and they're not going to fix it, they're now telling me to click the "not applicable" button when this happens, I inquire regarding this being a violation and they hang up or transfer me. I have NEVER received resolution when calling ebay about their broke site, they take notes and tell me I'm calling about something else, it's like the twilight zone.

I've come to conclusion that it has to be intentional because it's not possible for employees to have so little knowledge of their own companies website. They can't find my cutoff times which we all have to enter when we choose our handling & shipping times. My 1st call in late July they couldn't find the "buyer description" and shipping weights. They don't report or fix issues, they hang up and lie to me.

My detailed seller ratings are all 5 star except 1 buyer gave me a 4 on communication. My reviews are very detailed highlighting my accuracy, handling time and protective packaging, my reviews are impressive even to me. As I mentioned I'm only 5 months selling on ebay and I've pulled all listings, I'm afraid of customer service. My cutoff time is listed as 3pm est my post office closes at 4pm. I had a payment come in on 12-28-21 at 405 pm the package was scanned in at post office at 840 am 12-29-21 it was delivered at 205pm on 12-31-21 that's less than 70 hours from time of payment till delivery and they've given me a DEFECT for "late upload" and they REFUSED to remove calling me UNQUALIFIED. This is 2nd defect they've hit me with for late uploads that aren't late and they either are the worst trained employees in the world or they intentionally say they can't see my cutoff time, multiple reps on phone calls when I ask them to read the listing and confirm the cutoff time, they all say "0" or "00" I say "0" isn't a time and they hang up on me. What in the world is going on? I'm a TOP RATED SELLER PLUS but terrified to list, if they can take my performance discounts away with these fraudulent defects how am I going to trust them if a situation arises with a buyer?

They told me I can't leave negative feedback for the 7 people who bid on my auctions then didn't pay, they claim "sellers can't leave negative feedback because we want our buyers to remain confident"? I ask them wouldn't buyers feel confident buying from a TOP RATED SELLER like me and they hang up.

Desired outcome: company contact

eBay Account - permanent suspension

During Christmas holiday I made multiple offers on ebay products. Several purchases were made without issue. Payments for purchases were then rejected by ebay. I contacted customer support and they assured me the issue would be resolved in 24 hour. When it was not resolved, I contacted them a second and third time after successive 24 hour periods and was told the same thing. Shortly after the third telephone conversation with ebay customer service, I received a permanent account suspension for reasons unknown. There was no violation to their online policy and no tangible explanation given for the action they took. Apparently the have some algorithm that determines your guilt or innocence without explanation. At the very least ebay should warrant (per their policy) the purchases that I made in good faith. I've been told I am on my own for purchases made because my account is suspended.

Desired outcome: Reinstate account and purchase coverage

Same here. I was banned permanently for no reason, either given or imaginable. They pick people seemingly at random and condemn them harshly yet won't even say what the accusations are because if they did it would allow us to prove our innocence and they can't let that happen.

eBay Secret Central: Have You Heard? (2004) VHS

I was looking on eBay for a VHS entitled "Secret Central: Have You Heard?" (2004) which is $20.00 for 1 VHS but, unfortunately, the listing has ended. I am going to find the person who bought the VHS and yank it away from him so that it will be mine again (I own the screener copy). Get rid of the other listings of the other VHS videos (including The Secret of NIMH and A Troll in Central Park) that are on eBay and redo the listing of the only VHS video just to make it available again.

eBay eBay and Seller fraudulent activity

I purchased a Microsoft Software from eBay seller fb54321. The seller advertised his or her item as brand new, and CDs.
When I received the package, it wasn't as advertised, no Cds! I entered the Product Key after logging into my Microsoft Account, I get a message that reads, Product Key already been used! The seller took so long to ship the package, and I message the seller, he/she admitted to having a busy work schedule. Therefore I requestedy refund around two days later.

eBay then created a fake tracking on my account, showing shipped. I asked the seller in a message have package been shipped, the seller replied the package (had not been shipped), and that's when I realized eBay is doing fraudulent activity! eBay had the audacity to close the order, without refunding my money! eBay is just as guilty as the seller's for fraudulent activity!

After I get my refund, I will be done with eBay for good! And eBay don't provide a customer care number for eBay Buyers, simply because eBay is doing fraudulent activity along with the seller's! When a Buyer wants their refund before an order ships, that's exactly what eBay should do! And not create a fake tracking! Bump the time limit of giving sellers time to ship their used up junk to Buyer's! I'm so frustrated! And now I have to spend more money purchasing a good Microsoft Software.

Desired outcome: I want my refund immediately eBay!

eBay Other consumer companies

I purchased a cb radio from ebay that has an echo board that is completely bad. While doing business with ebay, I noticed some products I purchased and consequently sent back were in disastrous condition yet ebay doesn't concern itself with that problem. I know ebay has a return policy but what if during the pandemic I didn't check the product I purchased for about six months, then I'm stuck with a cb magnum radio that didn't deserve to be sold to anybody cause the echo board is bad and the seller knew it was bad. Just say no to doing business with Ebay. Buy on Amazon or any other selling company's website but not ebay.
Secondly, I was the highest bidder on a second cb radio that I tried to purchase. When the clock ticked down the last second I was the highest bidder, yet ebay gave the radio which is outlawed in the US from selling.

I reach out to them where they were willing to refund me $80.00 to a PayPal account, I requested it be placed back onto the card that I purchased it with. But since that day they have blown me off. Shipped to Ford Crosby.

It says my account may have been compromised, it was not and I have changed my password just in case and updated my details as they suggest. It offers a link to get help but this link says "Sorry, we are currently experiencing difficulties." This is the message I have been getting for 5 days now! There is no other option to get help or support.

Nowhere on their site is there any option to call, email or anything else to get support. The only option above doesn't work!
