I have a question where can you look in the listing to see if it has holds or not? Like specifically I could not find either one of the things you said in the edit listing screen? Guide me guide me please

Well it is for me so all i can say is somethings wrong becuase it worked for my accounts....last time was around febuary.

Point out the email where it states the item must be sent ...

In the email no mention of delivery or in any of there t.c's

Once i pointed that bit out .... they started releasing my money....regardless of if delivered or not.

another thing that might help is if you attach a copy of the recipt with the tracking no and address when you send your email .

The part of the listing where you enter your PayPal email when listing/editing, in that section it should say.

Just a quick question guys. Is that true that PP 21 days hold isn't exist to items listed on ebay.co.uk?

As if.

Holds apply for the UK accounts.

Wait until paypal uk gives you a rolling reserve to deal with as you try to trade.

remove bnk account when PP account created.....as per savers.

Add to withdraw and remove....leave off till want to withdraw..rince and repeat for a litte more time.

i have said in a good few threads.....you send the item...keep the tracking....Contact ebay 3 days after you SENT the item and funds will be released REGARDLESS of if they have been DELIVERED or NOT.

Some packages i send around the world can take 5-10 days to reach the destination......The money is usually released well before the items reach there destination.


i mean in the u.k under the old system...It used to take 3-4 sometimes more days for you money to reach the bank

Now it take you 3 days for PP to release it and 2-3 hours to reach the bank.

Whats so bad ?

What do you mean contact ebay 3 days after you ship the item? Contact them by calling them? and say what?

Also what does adding and removing your bank account do?

'Hello ebay, you suck' never works.

Should you (risk a) call, you say Hello, my user name is xxxxx I have my shipping details of the item posted 3 days. Please input into the system. Thank you for that and thank you for releasing my funds...

Words similar to the above.

That bank account is a UK trick. Not useful for Canada.

Adding and removing bank account is not effective for pp.ca

What do you say? You state you shipped the item, here is tracking, and hope that they release funds. Happens that they will say you have to wait for it to be delivered though

Isn't it pay pal applying the hold and not ebay?

It doesn't sound very likely ebay will release just after 3 days, that would make the 21 day hold pointless..

Thanks.

The holds are placed by eBay. Anyway, they are the same now but different division. My holdings are mostly released by the end of second day after delivery confirmed.
