The first item I sold on ebay was over 90 days ago. I was under the impression that after 90 days from selling the first item the payment hold came off the account. I still have quite a bit showing pending. Was I wrong? The only answers I keep on getting when I ask the question anywhere is what I already know which is that the money will be pending for up to 21 days unless tracking info or positive feedback is given. It is so FRUSTRATING. All I want is a simple answer to a simple question!!

Hi stuffystuff,
Payment holds are usually removed after 90 days. Are your payments still showing on hold? If so, please repost and we can look into your account further.
If you meet the following, you’ll receive payments instantly in most cases:
• You have been an eBay and PayPal member for 6-months or more
• Your total Feedback score is 100 or greater
• Your buyer dissatisfaction percentage is less than 5%
• You are selling in a category or industry with an established history
• Your average Detailed Seller Rating is 4.5 or greater
• You have received 20 or more Detailed Seller Ratings in the last 12-months
Hope this helps,
Maria
