I too had the 30 listing offer of 25% off FVF.
As I listed they were all coming up 0 fees but now on checking my account SOME have been charged 35p each! Confused! Has anyone else checked this?0 -

I've just checked mine and haven't been charged.
Did yours definitely show zero fees when you confirmed ? iF so phone ebay and ask what has happened, and while you wait on the phone check out the community boards to see if anyone else has had issues. If this is a glitch then others will have been affected as well.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.

I noted in the Ts & Cs that automatic re-lists will NOT be covered by this offer. (They are included in the usual bi-weekly offers.)
Hence any auto-relists yesterday or today will have been charged normally, initially using any of your monthly free listing allocation, and thereafter at 35p or more each.
Might that explain it?0 -
They weren't automatic, no. But they were possibly relists set up manually with a start time.
I never was able to see the T&C due to the error message.0 -

The t and cs whilst relevant are not the important bit- did you actually manually list the items and see them as free before you listed them?I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.

Now I have found the terms it says exclusions - multi item listings.
They are the ones which are charged for but I'm sure they showed as free when I set them up.
Just tried another one and it says 35p so maybe after the first few were free I just didn't check!
I don't remember them ever being excluded on FLDs but I guess this is different.
At least I have a few left now from the 30 so I'll use them tonight.
Thanks for your help.0 -
More free listings- a week's worth this time and only a day after the last lot finished as well.
I haven't even dented my monthly free allowance now for months.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.

i havent had any additional free listings from ebay since 7 august!! Ebay is going slowly out of favour with me Im afraid. Had few things that were on an automatic free re-list - checked and they are now chargeable on the re-list!0

I nearly got caught out with that too. Fortunately I spotted the change of policy just in time, after a batch had auto-relisted on a free listing day!
Once you have unchecked them, they will not auto-relist. eBay has stated that the box will be unchecked by default for new listings.0 -
