The 120+ days thing with ebay is allegedly because they need to make sure any outstanding deals are closed and accounts settled. Of course that is absolute bullshit, it took them 120+ days to close my account and I had not used it for over 4 years at that point. They actually emailed me telling me that they were closing the account due to inactivity. They gave me 3 or 4 months to log on before it would be killed, so I thought to myself "good, saves me the hassle of doing it myself". Fast forward 3-4 months and I get an email telling me my account was compromised. Weird... so I log on, confirm any payment info I had was long since expired, confirmed nothing had happened and that my password was intact... then I scrambled the security question and password just to be safe and told Ebay to delete the account. Cue "this will take 120+ days" bullshit... but whatever. At nearly the end of that 120+ days I get emailed again telling me the account was compromised. I'm convinced this is a scam they run to trick you into logging into your account, thus resetting the the countdown. Ebay and paypal are among my least trusted companies. I have a higher opinion of even Comcast or Halliburton.
