new ebay account issues
 

Iv just opened 2 new ebay accounts and when o try to list an item on both it says my PayPal account is not active. Iv been creating stealth accounts for a while now and never had this issue before so I'm confused why it's happened twice in a row. Anyone know how To overcome this issue?

Btw, the paypal accounts have been varified

Are the PayPal’s verified and confirmed?

What exactly have you done on the PaYPal side?

There were some glitches last week similar to this. But they were USAbased.

Yes paypal is varified and confirmed. Iv set it up with a bank account as normal. Created 2 accounts yesterday and didn't have this issue it's just today

My friend also has this problem and he has been trying for last 6 hours. It happened to me also before, months ago, but few hours after i just tried to relist and i was able. So i guess you should wait a bit :)

Wait a bit, see if it clears up on it's own.

Try using another browser, maybe it's related to the one you're using.

Remove the PP account as a payment method from your EB and then re-attach it.

Be sure you're using the correct email address ( of course ) even a extra space can botch things up.

Call PP and ask if they can explain what's happening.

Get back to us and tell us what works. :)

Working fine today. Must have just been a temporary glitch

Sometimes the best thing is to see if issues like this self resolve.

Glad it worked out for you, good luck in the future. :)
