Account closure

Summary: A participant says that he is trying to close his eBay account, but is having problems communicating with the company because of email settings. He is surprised that his account may already have been deleted and can no longer view any messages. perfect-sally notes that the account is probably not deleted, since the participant can post here and recently made sales. It is likely some kind of farewell post after 25 years of using the service.

Hello,

I’m currently trying to close my eBay account and received an email saying that important information was available for me, but that it couldn’t be delivered by email because in my settings I only allow plain text emails, not HTML. Interestingly, in the past I always got emails in HTML format, kind of weird. But it gets even weirder.....

Then I wanted to view this message in the app under my messages, but I could hardly access any page anymore, everything was gone. Apparently my account has already been deleted.

Hmm, so now what? I’ll probably never find out what important message was waiting there. ;-)

But right now I’m just glad to have nothing more to do with this corporation.

Why am I writing this here? No idea, sort of a closing note after 25 years of eBay.

Bye, have fun here!
