Ebay will not accept credit unions
Hopefully someone reads this. If you are a seller then Ebay will not verify credit union checking accounts. So, when you sell something, you can't get your money if you are with a credit union. I have spent a combined 4 hours with customer service across three weeks and Ebay refuses to verify my credit union checking account or explain why they won't verify it, and says that to receive the $640 I got from sales I will need to open a bank account with a "reputable" bank. Ebay is filled with thieves and their customer service is worthless. They are all a bunch of bums. Were it not for monopoly Ebay would be in the dust bin where they belong.

·3 years agoA Credit Union isn't a real bank.
A few have been able to use a Credit Union and haven't had any problems, yet.
Why do they approve some and not others, don't know?

·3 years agoI'm not sure how you're drawing that conclusion, but credit unions can perform all the same functions as a bank. The credit union I'm using for my eBay sales offers Savings accounts, Checking accounts, loans, mortgages, business accounts, etc. You name it.
All eBay/Adyen want to see is a valid ACH routing number and a Checking account number for your financial institution. Beyond that, I don't think they care whether it's a bank or a CU.

·2 years agoSome things that may help with linking or editing your bank account for Managed Payments:
Go to https://www.ebay.com/sh/fin and click on edit your payout method. Click on the "+" Add payment option. Select the bank and click continue. Add the new bank, which will overwrite the old bank information.
Instead of selecting your bank from the pull down menu, scroll all the way to the end and click on "My bank is not on the list" to enter the information manually.
Make sure you are using your bank's preferred ACH routing number for online deposits, as it often is different than the one preceding your account number on your checks.
Make sure your name is exactly the same on your ebay account as it is on your bank account. Change the ebay name if needed, you can change it back later.
Some Credit Union accounts have a problem as does some Bank of America accounts, but usually it is the routing number that is the problem. Call your bank and ask which one to use for ebay.
