….and I have absolutely NO idea why.
I haven’t done anything out of the ordinary. I am just unable to log in and get a pop up box saying my account is disabled.
The weird thing is that they wont let me appeal against it/contact them without first uploading proof of ID (which I never had to give when I first registered 8 or so years ago) driving licence passport etc. I’m very security conscious and feel uneasy doing this, but cant find any telephone number for them to confirm that this is genuine.
You would have thought they would have at least sent me an email of explanation or warning, but nothing
. Has anyone else had similar problems or would anyone have a contact telephone or email for them?
27th May 2017 at 3:26 pm #155405Ah. Difficult! How very odd, that you have been banned! Is it possible for you to use your partners account? If you have one ?
Anonymous27th May 2017 at 6:08 pm #155467Its usually because the account holder has broken the terms and conditions. Its possible someone has hacked your account and been using it without your knowledge, logging in as you. Plenty of info on the net. My daughter had hers hacked and I had my gmail hacked.
You need to separate the 2 issues
Why your account was disactivated ……………… you’ll probably never get a definitive answer
and
How to get it reactiveated ……………… it really doesn’t matter why it was disactivated you’ll still have to jump through their hoops to get it back and providing photo-ID is now a pretty standard part of the process.
My own view is that we can’t complain about lack of security in one breath and then about security being rigorously applied in the next.
Anonymous27th May 2017 at 7:22 pm #155491I see PayPal are asking for ID as well. Its fine to provide these companies with copies of certain stuff, problem is what they do with it once they get hold of it. Its amazing now, you only have to think about something and an add for someone selling it suddenly appears on the screen in front of you. Wonder when we will reach the time, when they transmit an unbelievable urge to buy something direct to your brain?
