I've been having recent trouble with myibidder bids. Here are the last 2 things I tried to snipe:

361025693514 2 Vintage BONE CHINA DACHSHUND DOXIE DOG Figurines oopsie2
US $10.49 1 Ended
US $16.59
My Status: eBay requires verification code
(my snipe was $16.59, winning bid $10.49)

371124850334 CAT FIGURINE ON A POLISHED STONE BASE truffleslibby
US $3.75 1 Ended
US $4.09
My Status: Refused login (password problem?)
(my snipe was $4.09, ended with no bids)

I checked and I can't log in with my old password, so I know I used the right password. I'm not sure what's going on.

There was an issue on eBay's side around that time which affected your snipe.
It seems like it was resolved by now. I saw two more spikes of the same issue today, but I don't see they are repeating anymore. We'll see how it goes.

I'm sorry it affected your snipe.

Btw, the second item was relisted as 221530915738.

The same problem.
My Status: eBay requires verification code.
My snipe was 14.99 EUR, winning bid is 13.09 EUR

Same here, snipe was 31,95 EUR, winning bid 22 EUR.

And: "My Status: eBay requires verification code"

I hope this will not become a permanent problem with ebay blocking myibidder.

There seems to be no rhyme or reason as to when the Refused login (password problem?). Although it always seems to happen when you would have won the item with a snipe. I have seen this two or three times. I won an item last night, had an unsuccessful bid (outbid) this morning and then my password was refused on 171433098624.

It does not look like eBay targeted Myibidder. It seems like some issue eBay is having when heavily loaded during weekends.
I called them a few times about it. Hopefully, they'll take care of it.

Sorry for the affected snipes.

For years I have had no problems and now when I snipe it says password problem??? Can some one help please

Hello!

Very unhappy. I didn't win the auction. I use web based service.

Received this mail:

The following bid attempt was placed per your request:
Item *****:
Final price: ****
Snipe: ****
Status from eBay:
Refused login (password problem?)




You are aware of this problem? I want to note that if on the one computer to login to your account in one browser and try to log in to your account in another browser - Ebay requires verification by e-mail or sms. How does your service login in to account without this security check? The problem around here. Nevertheless, I am very unhappy 8(

here is a screen shot. i do not know if i schould trust my ibidder app anymore. i did change passwords and stuff but im still not sure.

It was just discussed above. This is due to eBay had some weird issue when they started to request captcha which can't be solved.
Seems like a temporary issue on their side. eBay usually resolves those kind of issues within 24 hours or faster.

There is no captcha request when i was did bid manual! So..

napishu,
This has nothing to do with you bidding manually.
It does not affect everyone and everywhere. eBay is a complex system, some things could be triggered based on certain conditions, like location, browser, user/password combination, etc.
If your combination did not trigger it, that does not mean that nobody else is having an issue.

i'm having the same problem. started last sunday night but went away during the week.

again this week it started on sunday but this time they're still not going through.

Guest,
As mentioned in the topic above, there was an issue last Sunday which affected many snipes including yours.

I see snipes are going through now. If yours still don't work, that means there is something else specifically with your own account.
Please contact support directly with the item number for more information if you need help.

Today. The same problem. My Status: eBay requires verification code. Problem not resolved.

My Bids were not placed today. It does not state any error message. I had a snipe set for $150 on an item I have been looking for for over 4 years. It ended at just $16. My emails from last week when my bids failed were never returned. I am wondering why I use this sniper service.

Yes, the issue was back again. It was for a much shorter period of time, so I see it's improving.
I also made some changes to mitigate the issue on the sniper's side. Hopefully, the issue will be in the past.

marcus0202,
I responded to all your emails. My guess is that you block them on your side. You may need to adjust your spam filter or check your junk folder.

I got bit by "eBay requires verification code" today, too.

JavaJack,
I just responded above that the issue came back, but it looks much better as it disappeared much faster this time.
Everything works fine now.
