I'm seeing an unavailable balance on my new account now, it looks like the amount is for all orders shipped within the last 24 hours, definitely not EDD + 7 days. Again, this is an all FBA account so I have no idea how they're applying the rules.
The complete step-by-step guide to get back to selling today!
Well, it looks like the new transactions coming in are now being held as unavailable.. that kind of sucks. My typical disbursements are 20 - 30K so that means I'm always going to have a 10 - 15K unavailable balance. That's a lot of $$ to be tied up for no good reason :|
Just a follow up. My six accounts are still under this after a couple of months now doing FBM. Looks like it won't go away. Our products are finally showing up in the buy box instead of the dreaded "see sellers selling this product" button so it def looks like its here to stay.
We've figured out our particular funds availability days though. We can generally request a transfer Wed - Sundays and the accounts will release some funds. Mondays and Tuesdays there is nothing available. It might just be our handling time and their estimated delivery dates. We have completely given up on waiting 14 days. We have been successfully requesting transfers on the days we have noted for 2 weeks now without issue. The amount being released can be calculated before you click request transfer by looking at your reports payments page, closing balance section and total balance. Subtract from that number the dollar amount shown on the "View Details" page under the Unavailable Balance Total.
Yes that's how it is now. I have 4 accounts created after June 30th and they all have 7 day reserve with the Request transfer button. I think I will rather it that way than waiting 2 weeks for disbursement. Now I can request transfer every 7 days and get paid every week...
