Re: Ebay Linked To 2 Paypal Accounts
 

You should remove the old limited PP account before more money is mistakenly sent there. I don't know of any way to recover the funds that were already sent there. Did the money end up in the limited PP account? If so I guess you can withdraw it once the limitation period is over.

The new PP account you linked to your Ebay will be limited also, but nobody can say for sure how long it will take. Sometimes the new Paypal account is limited on the first day, sometimes it will last for months before being linked to the previous PP account and limited. My advice to you is to take it very slow for a month or two with this new PP. You need to treat it like a brand new account otherwise your chances of being linked/limited increase by a lot.

I did the same when relisting, I cancelled the 3 orders and sent email to the buyer. 2 rebought and I was good. Recommend you NEVER relist and item when you do this. Just start from scratch.

Hi

Greetings!

Thank you for contacting eBay Customer Service. I understand that you have linked your eBay account to the PayPal email address “xxxxxxxxx” but when an item was sold the money / payment was sent to the PayPal account “xxxxxxx”. Thank you for bringing this concern to our attention. Don’t worry, this is something I can definitely help you with.

I have thoroughly checked your account and indeed the PayPal account linked to your eBay account is “xxxxxxxxxx”.

Upon checking further, I found that for your items you've sold, the email address you’ve specified when creating a listing for receiving the payment from your buyers is the PayPal account “xxxxxxxxx”. This is why it has been sent to your old PayPal account.

Say for example for the item xxxx you’ve sold, the PayPal account you’ve used in receiving payment is “xxxxxxxx”.

To show you, just simply go to the link below: (You will be routed to the listing form)

https://bulksell.ebngleList&sellingMode

At this point, since the payment for items you’ve sold were sent to your old email address “xxxxxx” , my best advice is to call PayPal by phone immediately so they can transfer the money or payment to your new PayPal account “xxxxxxxx” since they have all the tools and access to your PayPal account.

Here's how to reach PayPal Phone Support:

1 (888) 221-1161

4:00 AM to 10:00 PM Pacific Time (PST) Monday through Friday

6:00 AM to 8:00 PM Pacific Time (PST) Saturday and Sunday

Lastly, it so good to see that you have already specified the PayPal account “xxxxxxxxx” in receiving payments to your new active listings. Good job and I commend you for doing this.

I trust I’ve explained things clearly why they payments were sent to your old email address “xxxxxxxxx”. We appreciate you for taking the time to contact us about this.

Thank you for choosing eBay, you are a valued eBay member.

With Respect

You will not be able to just make a new PayPal and link it into the old eBay. It will get linked to the old limited PayPal and also get limited

eBay shouldn't be effected.
