The quickest way — follow a direct link

The easiest way to find the eBay online chat option is to go directly to the following help page:

https://www.ebay.co.uk/help/listings/creating-managing-listings

Once on the page, scroll down to the bottom. You will see a "Need more help?" section with a "Chat with us" link beneath it. Click that to start a live chat session.

Note: Chat availability may vary depending on your location and the time of day. If the chat option is not showing, try one of the methods below or check back at a different time.
2

Navigate there manually

If the link above does not work, you can navigate to the chat option manually by following this path through the eBay help section:

Help → Selling → Listing your Item → Revise a listing → scroll to bottom of page → Chat with us

Once you reach the "Revise a listing" help page, scroll to the very bottom and you will find the chat link in the "Need more help?" section.

3

Through Help & Contact

You can also reach eBay's chat support by working through their main Help & Contact section. This takes a few more steps but works for any type of issue, not just listing queries.

1

Go to the eBay website — visit www.ebay.co.uk

2

Find Help & Contact — scroll to the bottom of the homepage and click "Help & Contact" in the footer

3

Select a topic — choose the category that best matches your issue (Buying, Selling, Account, Returns, etc.)

4

Search for your issue — use the search bar to describe your problem or select from the common issues listed

5

Look for a contact option — if the automated suggestions do not resolve your issue, look for "Contact us", "Ask eBay" or a similar link

6

Choose live chat — you may be offered several contact options including phone and chat. Select the live chat option

7

Sign in if prompted — you may need to sign in to your eBay account before the chat option becomes available

8

Start chatting — follow the prompts to begin your session with an eBay customer service representative

Tip: If you have the eBay mobile app, you can also find help by going to the menu and selecting "Help & Contact", then following the same steps above to reach the chat option.
