7 days hold after the final day expected delivery date?

[brownsuga]

I opened an account about a month ago and discovered the "request transfer" was placed on my account (not available on my old account).

Then amazon email me saying that they will hold my payment for 7 days until the final expected day of delivery for my orders.

This is understandable, but how long will this continue? Anyone knows? I know with ebay you need to sell for 90 days and meet all the criteria. .........

So no one knows how long amazon takes to remove "reserve" from new accounts?

they wont remove this for 6 months after 1st sale

[brownsuga]

wow!!! wasn't aware of this

The 1 week rolling disbursement is common, its not that bad. Get used to it!

It's more like 3 weeks to get paid.

From my experience US Pro sellers get funds transferred every 2 weeks

US individual sellers get a weekly transfer but usually have a 1 week rolling reserve, whereas Pro accounts don't usually have that.

If only we still had the old system of manual disbursements, those were the good days.

UK accounts still get the manual request button dont they?

[elmo]

Older accounts have them

Sometimes new accounts get by with the button but it's pretty rare

Most UK Amazon accounts get the daily disbursement button after verification

But for the most part: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/help/cus...deId=200714150 (Warning -- Amazon Link)

What I meant it that amazon estimated delivery time for "free economy shipping" is 2 weeks. After the final day, it will take another 7 days for them to release that fund. So its really 3 weeks from sale date.

My new US account has it. But you will be faced with the rolling reserve.

Oh yes I see what you mean!
