Payment pending non-ebay services

This month I received a couple of payments for freelance services, nothing to do with ebay. The first one went through fine and the second one today is pending. Everything I've read about pending payments is to do with eBay but my services are nothing related to sales. Why are they pending all of a sudden and is there anything I can do?

Again you're being aggressive for no reason. I haven't complained about anything you said. I gave more info in the second post because I realised how vague my post was. Don't get so triggered over me NOT complaining. No, services does not mean sales, especially when I say "nothing related to sales". You sell services. When selling items you don't say I'm selling services. I specified I was doing freelance work. There's a reason you're a volunteer and not actually working for PayPal. I managed to fix this myself by adding a currency for USD in my wallet.

I've had my account for years and Im a freelance web developer. I've received payments many times over the years but never had it pending. I received an email saying its pending due to it being in a different currency but Ive received dollars many times. I don't see how I'm a "new seller".

Well if you want accurate advice it would be helpful if you gave the information in the first post that you gave in the second. !!

Not sure about the aggression there. I never mentioned anything about selling, hence the "nothing related to sales". Plus I never even complained about anything you said, I was merely giving you more accurate information in the second post... Jeez...

Payment for services normally means selling.

And not sure that saying it would have been better to have given all the info in the first place was exactly agressive but whatever.
