Bidding issue, can not bid on any item due to unpaid item/s even though you don't have any on your account. Known glitch per ebay customer service, impact to several users. Being fix, given ETC is 48 hrs.

Be aware that in eBay time "48 Hours" means anywhere from 4 weeks to never.

I suddenly have phantom unpaid item strikes and can't increase bids I've already made on listings. Ebay keeps falling apart with technical glitches in new ways.

You're right, it's passed 48 hrs, it's almost a week & it's still not fixed - no work around.

Have the same issue for almost a week. Can't bid on items with sellers I've dealt with before - saved sellers or not. You can bid on items with new sellers that you haven't dealt with before.

The only workaround I have right now is to contact the seller with a message and ask them to add me to the buyer exemption list on biddermanagement (of course I can't even include the link here event though it's an internal link to ebay)
Unfortunately, I don't even know if some are receiving this message and two sellers think I am attempting to scam them, I guess Ebay is letting scammers run rampant in the message system.
I recently had transactions "Auto-closed" by Auto-Cancel-Glitch as a buyer, see- ecommercebytes, one transaction had 4 separate items in it alone, and I have no idea if this is due to this activity or some random technical glitch. It's happening randomly with some sellers, one day I can place bids, the next day I can't, then the next day I can (On the exact same items).

No, that would be...soon.
48 hours really means two weeks.

I had the same problem as you today. Miss a lot of opportunities. The eBay customer service didn't tell me what to do.

Has anyone had any progress or resolution to this issue?

UPDATE, it's Jan 15, 2023 and I am STILL dealing with this issue. I've contact customer support via chat FIVE times with no resolution, just lies and empty promises. Called customer servie and got the same exact empty promises and a promise someone would email within 3 days (they never do.).
Now, I am trying FACEBOOK EBAY MESSENGER and over a 10 hour period am now re-explaining the problem again to a new representative.
