      PayPal Pay In 4 Completely Gone

      It seems i can no longer use pay pal pay in 4 as an option when purchasing. Ebay just takes the full amount without taking you to the PP option screen where you can select which card/account they can debit from whilst also having the he option to Pay In 4 like it used to.  Will ebay change this by any chance?

      Payments on hold

      Hello everyone, I'm looking for advice from experienced sellers because I have not been able to get a clear answer from eBay Support. I have been an eBay seller since April 2014 and have been a Top Rated Seller for several consecutive years, so I am not a new seller and I have a long history of successfully completing transactions. Since December 2025, every one of my payments has been placed on hold. Most of my shipments are sent using eBay Standard Envelope, and because the tracking is often incomplete or delayed, my funds remain on hold even after delivery. Now I have an even more concerning issue. few of my orders currently shows: "On hold — funds available Jul 17." Today is July 19, and the funds are still not available even though the stated release date has already passed. Yesterday I requested two callback appointments through eBay Support, but I never received either call. Has anyone else experienced funds remaining on hold after the stated release date, especially as a long-time Top Rated Seller? I'm also trying to understand why every payment has been placed on hold since December 2025 and what steps, if any, are required to have these holds removed. Any advice or shared experience would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

      New Money Order Listing Choice

      My question is about MONEY ORDERS. It seams that MONEY ORDERS have recently been added as a choice of payment to buyers. However, if a seller does not want the Money Order to be a choice of payment, EBAY automatically adds that choice to your listing. I do know that I can delete the MO choice manually in the payment body of my listing. Is there another way to permanently delete that choice? I now have to check out all my listings when they renew into inactive.

      Delayed deposits now that ebay wants extra money to promptly pay sellers.

      Has anyone noticed how slowly ebay has become when depositing seller funds now that they've started to campaign for us to pay them extra to expidite them? Good thing I'm not in a major hurry but for some it must be incredibly inconvenient. Just wondering if anyone else has seen the difference.

      Nightmare Trying To Get A Refund

      I purchased an expensive item on eBay on June 2, 2026. It arrived on June 10, 2026 and was damaged. I began the return request process on June 11, 2026. I got nowhere with the seller, so I asked eBay to step in and open a case. I received an email from the eBay on June 25, 2026, stating: " We have reviewed this case and decided in your favor ". I received another email from the eBay Customer Service High Value Claims team on June 25, 2026, stating: " I have reviewed the claim details and see that you opened a return request, but the seller has not yet accepted the return. We'll send you a label so you can return the item to the seller for a refund You will need to print the label and post the item back to the seller within 7 business days. Once the seller has the item back, you should receive your refund within 2 business days ". The item was shipped on June 29, 2026 and was delivered to the seller on July 3, 2026. It has been over 10 days and I have not received the refund. I have received no communications whatsoever from eBay nor from the seller. I have been trying for days to contact a human being at eBay, to no avail. When I call on the phone, the AI ends up saying: " Sorry, I'm not able to connect you with an agent at this time " over and over. When I use the chat, the AI ends up saying: " Something is wrong, Here's what I found ...." over and over. But the AI didn't tell me anything found. According to eBay, chat and phone are the only two ways to speak with an agent Both of these methods are utterly useless. It seems as if eBay has made it impossible to speak with a Customer Service agent. One of their emails included this: " I appreciate your time and understanding, and we look forward to getting this resolved for you soon ". What do I have to do to get this matter resolved!

      Back at the 30 Day Hold Is *******

      If my buyer confirmed the arrival of the item and has installed the item and approved of the item and the transaction and Ebay wants to impose a 30 day hold AGAIN? I went to the hospital for over a month In May/June and was unable to access my account. I understand its my fault that i was unable to complete any order, much less pee on my own but anyhow, i didnt scam anyone out of any money and i Paid the unnecessary fees and im still put on time out ? No way to expedite the hold so i can live ?
