I have listed about a dozen items in the last week, and have not received one confirmation email for them. I have checked my preferences and can't see a problem there. Has eBay stopped sending them, or is it just me?
Mine are still coming through. Is it specific to ebay.com or ebay.ca, maybe? Could your settings have changed on one or the other? All my listings are created and managed via ebay.ca.
Just incase, you've checked your "spam" etc folders to make sure your email isn't flagging them right? (or your ISP - if a site is blocked, normally it is for 24 hours then it automagically unblocks)
I can confirm I am also not receiving email confirmations for new listings on .COM , just listed 7 and no emails.
I have to admit that I never noticed they weren't coming, because I normally don't care about them.
I checked back in time, because I list some new items every day, and I haven't received confirmations since January 24th. I can't check prior to that because I cleaned up my deleted emails before the 24th.
I have had the odd one show up very late, up to a couple weeks later, but never all of them.
Thanks ricarmic, I finally bit the bullet and phoned eBay. They had no idea why they were not arriving, didn't say that they had received other complaints. I was told they would send it to the tech. department, and it would take 24 to 48 hours. I always think I am the only one having these odd problems, like you, I often have had late ones, but this is now about 15 over the last week.
Well, I’ve only been selling for 12 years and never even realized that I could be receiving confirmation emails. I haven’t missed them so I guess I don’t really need them! LOL!
I've always had them come, it help me to keep record of listings that are active and fees spent. On one or two occasions over the years I might have had a single one go missing for reasons unknown but it's never been a long-term or ongoing problem. Gremlins.
I got an email from eBay in answer to my complaint and they told me to check my junk mail folder and my filter settings. No problems with either, still not emails confirming listings coming through.
Ditto, i just listed 40 items, and i got a confirmation email for all of them, i sold 5 items, got an email for all of them,,, had 7 items end, and not a single notice.. there is a problem with items ending without bidders...
I replied to the message from the tech. guys and explained that all my preferences were correct, but still no emails. I am getting the ones for items sold, and they are the most important, but I do use the listing ones a lot.
I told them that several sellers were experiencing the same problem so they are going to continue to look into it.
My guts honestly began to churn today when it occurred to me how close we are to the Spring Seller Update. We have, like, maybe a month? So, given the 'glitches' happening here and around the site, I think I would assume the coming 'improvements' will focus on whatever it is that has stopped properly functioning now: listing messages, watchers, calculated shipping......
