I Hate Ebay!

[G]

I had a similar issue with ebay... Fee for £13 which I pain straight away.

3 months later letter from a debt collection agency and they just kept coming. I provided letters showing that I had paid but they still kept coming.

In the end my dad wrote them a letter saying to take me to small claims if they feel they have a case and if we recieve another letter we would report them for harrasement and defamtion (sp) of character.

Never heard from them again since.

was it iqor or something like that

It may be what they told you, but you didn't have to pay the debt collection agency.

Part of me wishes I hadnt to be honest

I have always refused to pay debt collection agencies. If I have a debt, it's with the original other party in the transaction, not with any agency they've employed.

I'm currently being chased for an overpayment of benefit from when I was out of work. It's been taken on by an agency and they're hassling me almost daily by letter. I won't pay them because I know they'll just pass ,the debt back to the local council in the end when they've given up and that's when I'll finally pay it.

I'm only being awkward because it was the council that screwed me around for months regarding payments, and then dumped me with a debt. I don't usually run up debts, and never usually let it get to a stage where I'm being chased for payment, but now and again it happens.

What should I do?

ebay still havent unblocked my account? even after I have paid for something I shouldn't of.

Im not happy

sell your ebay account on ebay as a faulty item.

start the bidding at 99p

This is precisely why I will be closing my account once it's passed the 180 days of no-activity restriction. Fees are ridiculous and it's so easy to lose money on. I've always stood my ground where possible and fought off claims by eBay successfully, I screw them over on every bike sale and buy I make but now it's too much effort.

F*ck them.

1) Is it your fault?

2) Do you need the account?

Tell 'em to #@? off

well...

I'm halfway there now!

I recieved another call from IQOR yesterday who then said I owed them £24, I told them I am not paying them a single penny and they can take court action if they wish because I can prove that I dont owe them money.

They ended the call with we will take you to court.

I then rang ebay and lost my temper with them because they still havent sorted this out.

I got through to a manager who saw the issue and contacted the billing department whilst I was on the phone.

They erased this so called debt and credited my account and reactivated it all whilst I was on the phone.

So the situation now is that I'm up and running on ebay again and they have also sent me an e-mail saying that there is no debt.

I recieved yet another call this morning from the agency saying I had to pay them the money, I told them that they aren't getting a single penny from me and I also had confirmation from Ebay stating there is no debt!

I wrote them a letter with a copy of the e-mail and also said if they ever contact me again I will persue them for harassment.

So hopefully this is the end!
