Ive been dealing with this issue for months, going back and forth between ebay and paypal wasting my time. Finally figured out a solution, and let me tell you I have no found one solution online. Not sure of what exactly fixed it but I can tell you what I did. It's important to state that I received this error during submitting a listing from a new ebay account (I have many ebay accounts for my business). First I had to remove all my preapproved payments through paypal that regarded ebay. Having too many can affect it (considering I have 5 ebay accounts). The thing that finally worked was when I went through my ebay account settings and click Link My Paypal under Paypal Account Info (under the main My Account Page). I *thought* I tried that before (maybe not) but after clearing my preapproved payments the link DID work. It still didn't work when I tried to link the paypal during listing submission. I hope this helps someone cuz I've searched the whole internet and nobody seems to have any solution, including the customer service people. I hope this helps somebody out!
