Private data

Question

I noticed today that a seller had my private phone number on their invoice! Is that normal?? Does every buyer or seller get my mobile number after a purchase?How can I limit that?

Hello @kanomalu ,

yes, it’s true that as a private seller I’m also shown a buyer’s mobile number.

I don’t need it.

For some items that are shipped by freight carrier, the number is important; because the people from the freight company call you on the day of delivery.

You’re the one responsible for providing your data, and nobody else.

As far as I know, Ebay requires a phone number, but it definitely has no place on an invoice.

Have a look under settings and see whether you can change anything there.
