My eBay got suspended because I created it under 18 even though I am over 18 now.
 

My eBay got suspended because I created it under 18 even though I am over 18 now, and I had a lot of money waiting to be paid out to my bank account, but they said my account is permanently suspended. They told me I am allowed to make a new account which I am happy about. Will I get my payouts eventually? I am so worried about this money being lost. Thank you to anyone who helps me, will be much appreciated this is not a nice time for me right now.

EDIT: Good news the live chat agent said this:

For some reason I don't believe it till I see it though unfortunately.

if it is not a stealth account,I DONT see why you should not get your money ?
Did you ask Ebay?

If they've determined that you broke their User Agreement then there's a very good chance they'll keep you money and put the ball in your court to take legal action. They know that an under 18 year old cannot enter into a contract with them and your buyers.

I genuinely don't know if their Regulators or a County Court would force them to pay up.

How much are we talking about?

Hi there its just over £1,000 and I was 18 when I started selling, I just created the account under 18. The only rule i broke was simply creating the account too early. I am going to call them tomorrow and hopefully they will pay up. I heard it takes 60-70 days or something for you to get the money once you have been restricted.

I have tried to ask them, but everytime I call and get transferred to an agent I get a robot saying go on the help page of ebay, then it hangs up on me. It really is terrible service from ebay.

Its 2 weeks old. I am currently in live chat with ebay now. Yes I have a bank linked which is confirmed, also a card to pay for fees linked. It is all my details and not a stealth account.

What did live chat have to say?

I guess all you can do now is sit it out for the next 10 weeks and see if they do indeed release the monies.

Fingers crossed for you.
