Payment Pending Despite Delivery

I've recently started selling clothes on Depop. I've used tracked shipping with every item sold and they have all been confirmed as delivered by the shipping courier (Hermes and Royal Mail). Yet, PayPal has not released any of my pending payments. Do I just have to wait the 21 days, because I've done everything else PayPal has said to get my money quicker and in the UK, they literally won't let me talk to a real person to explain this. I've been stuck on the phone to a robot answering machine.

Funds are normally released when tracking shows online that the item has been delivered to the buyer + 1 day as long as you used one of Paypals supported carriers.
If completed and no funds are released then contact c.s. and request manual release of funds.
