Can funds be transferred between accounts?
Hello,
My Son who is a minor setup an account to sell Skylander Figures. Now that they are sold and he has funds ,with no bank account, the almost $90 are on hold.
One CS rep said funds can be transferred from his account to mine, then another said absolutely not. Before I go down the rabbit hole, does anyone have a quick solution for this.

·3 years agoNo, the funds can't be transfered to another account.
The only way he's going to get the money is to provide his checking account and his SSN.
You know when they suspend his account, they'll probably suspends your also.

I’m not sure how to fix this. Your son must have lied when he opened his account.
Since he got his account under false pretences, there is no recourse.
Your minor son committed fraud. $90 seems like a fair price for lying.
When eBay discovers his account is fraudulent, it will be suspended. Any account that is connected via ISP, will also be suspended.
Hopefully in the future, a seller won’t be able to list until they have an attached checking account. Haven’t quite figured out why eBay allows this.
