@gratethankful   Not illegal, the FSA approved paypals legal user agreement to be used in the UK. However >> Ebay and Paypal are 2 separate companies and have 2 separate policies for holding funds for new sellers. If yours was an Ebay transaction then its an Ebay hold and Ebay authorise when paypal can release the funds. This is the new seller hold that every single seller on Ebay has or will go through. Also Ebay feedback has no bearing on payment release. Normally for the Ebay hold its when tracking shows the item as delivered + 3 days if you use Ebay / paypal postage.
