Hello everyone, I sold a phone on ebay near the end of March and as soon as the item was sold and the auction ended the buyer paid for the phone however ebay put a hold via paypal on the money once the buyer had paid due to my account not having 25 transactions which I understood, paypal took their fees of £24 instantly. Baring in mind my account is a business one that I have had for 13 years. After several days the buyer received the phone and left very positive feedback, and then the money was unblocked from paypal, I went to transfer the money to my bank and yet again paypal blocked me from having access to it for reasons I am unknown, its been several days and I think paypal blocking my money £800+ is morally wrong when its already been blocked and I have paid the fees but also the buyer has not only received his goods he’s left positive feedback so there are "No doubts" whatsoever the entire sale of my phone has been legitimate, So why are paypal holding the money, and how can I get it unblocked? For me I see no argument at all, I am not a new customer to PP and although my account on ebay is only 6 months old there has been no issues with it, The fact that the buyer has the phone and has done for several days now and left positive feedback tells me that this is by far an overreaction by PP using the pseudonym kinda statement of "We need to make some security checks" when in fact ebay have unlocked the money and moved on but PP wont? How is it I am newish to Ebay and they released the block they asked PP to put on the money yet I am not new at all to PP yet they have put "Another" block on it? Something isnt right.
