Did you have any recent cases or anything selling differently?
That will cause the system to lockup as well.
Now the paypal hold is different than the ebay holds. If you send them a message they should adjust the system for you or at least give you a day when the holds totally fall off the radar. | No case or issues. From whats been sold, all have been delivered with positive feedback given.
After the 1st sale on all accounts I receive this message from PP: "As a security precaution, payments you receive from now on will be placed in your pending balance for up to 21 days.
Your pending balance helps ensure there is money in your account in case problems arise with any of your transactions. The money still belongs to you, it's just temporarily unavailable to use.
Once you've met the requirements below, your future payments will usually be available to you within 24 hours:
Complete 10 transaction(s) without any issue (no buyer disputes, claims or returns)
Maintain your PayPal account in good standing for at least 60 day(s)
Access your money sooner
Your pending payments will become available sooner if you deliver your item or service quickly and update the order status in your PayPal account. Here's how it works:
If you sold an item: After you post the item, mark it as 'sent' in your PayPal account and provide the tracking number if available. Your funds should be available 7 days after the postage date (or 14 days if you're posting to outside the UK)"
Now I know this message is pretty generic, but holds are usually reduced once tracking has been added, but not in this case on over 10 accounts.
So I'll try sending a message via PayPal, but I'm wondering as to why they are on a full 21 day hold in the first place, as I have others that were used in the same manner with regular PP holds or nothing at all.
