If they think the online banks are fraudster's nest they should have warned at the first instance, but they didn't.
I have all chat transcripts saved.

you can't , this is the very reason why ebay MP only want bank accounts held at banks with full UK banking licence because such banks have the strictest verification. UK banks do not open accounts for non residents , they do credit checks etc.

Wise is mostly used by people for currency conversion while revolut as bank account , for many as main bank account

I'm in the same situation as the topic creator. My accounts are legit with real names and over 20000 sales on each.
I've send everything to ebay and their answer is the same "we will contact you as soon as we review your documents". But I never get an answer since they decline my wise statement.
How can a non uk resident open an acceptable bank for their ebay without flying over seas to do so?.

It seems that working through .com site qnd adding .co.uk as additional listing platform works better.
