From yesterday. All my snipe failed with the Status:Your account needs extra confirmation by eBay.
I have checked my account and made some manual bid, My ebay account is OK.
Could some inform me what to do?

12 snipes failed
for example: http://www.ebay.de/itm/162181245826?ssPageName=STRK:MESINDXX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1436.l2649

Seems like your eBay login was refused by eBay.
Please relogin to the sniper to sync it again.

As a verification, you can try to access your Watch List. If sniper reported any items, you are good.

I had the same thing with about a dozen bids!!! yesterday/today. 5th Sep !!!

Yes, these usually come together during a day or two (two days are rare).
The sniper tries to mitigate the issue, but it can't eliminate it 100% since it's not up to the sniper.

Your account needs extra confirmation by eBay

Had this now for 2 days and have missed out on loads of items in this time.

Still the same issue till now.
5 more snipes missed today......

Shame as never had any problems before and been using this for a while now.

I went through the advise procedure in this thread - linking up with watched items in my ebay account. First snipe for today not executed however! How can we get round this problem???!! 'Your account needs extra confirmation by eBay'.....

Starting from last weekend I have also problems with sniping. It will not let allow Myibidder to login on behalf of me. When I logged in to ebay from my computer after the missed snipes I was asked to confirm to ebay that it was me through verification. This also happened after I logged in from the computer at my work (which has never happened before). I think that ebay has started to keep track of IP-addresses. Any idea how to solve this?

The sniper heavily depends on eBay functionality and if eBay is acting up due to their internal issues, we just need to wait for them to resolve it.
eBay is usually fast on resolving such issues, so I hope it will be normalized soon.

I see many snipes work as expected as of now, but a few are having issues like on and off. I would say it's getting better now.

This time it sames like not network issue.
When I log on my ebay account in different IP. Ebay start sending a four number mobile phone certification code to prove it is me who is using the account. I can not login without the code.
The sniper can not provide the code. I think this is the cause.....

Yes, the sniper can't enter the code. But eBay usually removes this step automatically after 24 hours or so.

i has missed a few snips the last few days, when i check myibidder this message shows "Refused login (password problem?)", i have logged out and relogged in on ebay and Myibidder, any help please..
thanks

1959munchkin,
The issue is still going for some eBay accounts.
If you get it for the last few days, you may have a better chance if you create another eBay login for sniping purposes.

O got the same problem since 3 days ago - I believe blocked all snipes.

Been going on for at least two months now, makes the sniper completely unusable.

happened to me today. First time ever in many years

missed out on a precious item,

It seems like this is global now and affect the whole sniper.
I'm looking into resolution.
