Linked bank account not showing as payment method

I've linked my bank account and confirmed it but when I've gone to buy something through eBay it's not showing the bank account, just a debit card. I've had to set up a new PayPal account but before that I used to use the pay after delivery option but not allowing me to do that as it's not picking up my bank account.

I have 2 accounts using the same bank account. My main account, I had no issue or delay when adding my bank info. It is verified and everything. Now with this account, again, verified my bank account, the account does not show up as a payment method when I go to send money. It makes no sense at all. When I call PayPal, all I get is, "well for some reason, our computer algorithm flagged your account as a possible risk." Even though there has never been an issue with any of my accounts, whether I was sending money or receiving it. Sometimes using computer systems instead of live people really just makes stuff worse.

I have the same issue. Bank account linked and confirmed, not showing up to make payments from or to send money to family. Been trying to get PayPal to fix this for a while now and no one seems to know why it's not showing.

Good to know it's not just me. Sounds like it's kind of a rolling issue, probably has to do with the limited staffing. Hopefully sorts itself out soon. Thanks to the responders.
