I will eat my hat if a private seller ever posts saying they were banned from ebay for using their balance to make purchases because it was deemed more of a risk than if they'd simply withdrawn it.
It's a great move by ebay, simply offering an option to spend your earnings with them and even then you have to override the current default payment method. Nothing more complicated than that but yet again you try and turn it into a perceived issue with more of your misinformation.
| Honestly I dont see an issue with using the funds to spend on eBay all the time.
Maybe mixing in some withdrawals is a good but really I dont see eBay suspending accounts if the funds are spent on eBay always. That is the goal here afterall from eBay POV. For all we know it could actually make the eBay account stronger if you are showing eBay that all the money you earn on eBay will be spent in eBay.
The only thing I could see people doing and causing problems is if they are using it to dropship and are adding in a new deliver address for each order. Quote:

Seriously, don't even try....

foreign run accounts were always present in large quantities , nowadays it is hard to do because UK banks are very restrictive
| You would be surprised there are still a lot of banks overseas that can generate a UK account number and sort code that can be used in the UK. The main high street banks are stricter but there are still dozens of easy to open options for people based overseas wanting to run a .co.uk account and withdraw. |
