eBay

I just received an email from eBay.com saying: "Starting on May 30, 2-step verification will only be done with your phone. Your token won't work anymore. You can still use 2-step verification by receiving a text of phone call with the security code." Why are you doing this? Hardware tokens are known to be far more secure than two-factor authentication (2FA) using a cell phone. The US National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST) has deprecated 2FA using SMS or phone, for government systems, because it's far too easy for someone to change the contact phone number if an account has been taken over. As long as I have my token in my possession, no-one can log in to my account. If you find the uptake of tokens among your customers has been too small, it makes some sense to also allow a less secure method of 2FA, but surely the cost of continuing to support tokens for customers who actually care about security can't be that great. This is a very regressive move!

I first noticed this problem months ago, and it's still happening! I choose my three different secret questions and enter my three completely different answers and I consistently get this error message - "The answer to each secret question must be different." But they ARE different! It's meant to provide some level of account security, is no one ever going to fix this? Has anyone ever been able to set secret questions on their account?

Back in the mid 90's I had a very active account named guysmiley. After having children the ebay selling went dormant. I want to get back into the community once again and was hoping to retrieve my old account instead of making a new one. Your time and attention are greatly appreciated.

Hey guys! I'm a German living in Canada. I was able to change my home address in the account settings, but I still can't change the language in which eBay communicates. For instance, if somebody sends me a question about an item I'm selling, the whole notification e-mail is in German (except the person's message obviously). When I reply, they get a German e-mail with my English message inside it. I'm not happy confusing potential buyers like that. How do I change this? For the life of me, I can't find that option. Whenever I click on the "Reply" button in the e-mail, I land on the German eBay site. If I manually navigate to the messaging centre on eBay.ca, the e-mails still end up in German. Any ideas? I'm sure others out there have moved to a different country and faced the same problem. Thanks! Matt. P.S.: sample attached.

My husband wouldn't use Paypal, so now the seller has both the good and the money. I can't contact ebay for help as they seem to have washed their hands of buyers. Can anyone tell me what to do now?

hello everyone could someone assist me please. I purchased a watch last night 08/29/2017 after making the purchase I went to put in my address and realized that my old address was just sitting there waiting. no problem I went in and edited it and I did so several time but every time I went back to the details page my old address that is roughly 265 miles away in flood Houston but I know live in Fort Worth, Texas. But I can't figure out what the sellers ID is. so would someone please tell me how I can get the correct info for the seller. would really appreciate his/her phone number. unless I stop it it will be going to my ex's that hasn't really has fully let go yet and so I definitely don't need the beautiful plum, colored Michael Kore's watch that is for my girl friends birthday arriving giving out the worst possible message it could. So if anyone could any help would be deeply appreciated and thank so much in advance

I can't get a hold of eBay. I don't have time to wait on the phone because I am at work, so I clicked "call me" and it said 17 minute wait. I am now on the next day and they still haven't called me. Is there an email address for eBay that I can leave a message at? I cannot seem to find one anywhere. I bought a bunch of items at Canadian Prices but on my credit card they are all different amounts. That is not fair, if I order an item at the Canadian amount they list, then that is what they should be charging me. Who can I talk to about this?

I got registration email addressed to unknown person from Ebay. I never had Ebay account before, so i tried to log in using my email address and it wasn't recognized. Also i was able to register new account using the same email address. Still don't understand why i got this "Welcome to Ebay" email addressed to someone else. It doesn't seem like spoof or and all links seem to be legit. Should i worry about it?

Has anyone else NOT been receiving their daily newsfeed of newly submitted "watched items"? It's been 2 days now without & I'm going thru withdrawals! (Lol) Not sure if I've done something wrong on my end, that needs to be fixed. Thanx.

To save signing into my ebay account several times a day, it would be useful to receive an email letting me know that I've rec'd a new message. Is there a setting that will do this for me?

keane5066

I'm having an issue with the email registered in eBay. It is a hotmail address, and all mail now goes to the spam folder. So I wish to change it to my more often used gmail address. However, eBay's system won't let me change it because my username is same as my email address. It's kinda dumb, since my currently used email in eBay also fits this "error". How can I change my email? I do not have any other email to use, and I surely will not create a new email just for eBay.
