eBay.in , by far, the pooorest ever e-com site I've ever used on earth. This is the 4 time I'm registering as a "new" user. And they keep messing with the registration workflow.
The last time I _tried_to_register, they were asking for my mobile number, and they said they sent me a OTP for activation it never happened. And I couldn't use the phone number again. It went into a total deadlock. That was like a real sh*t. And the customer support guy was talking like a dead man speaking through the tomb. Completely ignorant of the rotten state of mind their site takes an user into. He did not help me get through the login.

Now they had re-invented the wheels with email login/activation.
They send an activation link + confirmation code.
The confirmation code that they sent never worked. I kept on submitting the code multiple times. But it stayed on the same page. And just by a guess, I thought it might have actually activated in BG without confirming back with an ACK or taking me to the success>>login page. & I was right. It did let me login with my email. But no ACK anywhere.

Then, Now how silly it is to ask the user change their password after logging in for the first time. AS IF, they had send me a temporary password. I set my very own password during registration, Why the heck I need to change it? They had just sent me an Activation code to activate the link, they didt send a temp password. Then I changed my highly encryptic password painfully adding rest of the symbols in keyboard.
After having wasted a lot of time already , I managed to login with my account with email/password, Now it's freshly asking me to enter AN activation code. The old activation code that they sent , doesn't work. I'm locked again. $%^&*(#$. WTF, which activation code they are talking about? WTF | :WTF:

eBayofShit.


I can't believe such a HUGE company, they can't get a simple registration workflow right.
eBay is crappy everywhere or it just happens only with .in?

Starting to think people post kid pics in their profiles because that was the last time they were cute - Jeremy.
