So I can't get past the first step on Managed Payments. It doesn't want to take my correct PO Box OR my physical address. It wants to give me a town and zip code 15 miles away. We ARE in a rural area, but gee.......the address they insist I use is incorrect.
Just for kicks I let them use the wrong address and could get to the next page. But my bank account is not going to match that address, so I was afraid to go further.
I called eBay on Monday and a very nice lady tried to help me with no success. She said someone from the Payments Team (or something like that) would call me back, but I never heard back from them.
(I did miss a call from an "EIS Helpline" but when I googled that, I decided it was likely SPAM. And if I call the number back, it just says EIS Helpline is not available).
So what do I do? Tried to call eBay today and they aren't available either......it says:
"Sorry, this contact channel will be closed before an agent is available to speak with you today. Please try again tomorrow." And it's mid-day on a Thursday.
I'm so discouraged! I've been a seller for at least 12 years and now I feel like I am being forced out. And they don't even care if I am forced out. I would quit eBay all together except it is a great place to sell things that I haven't had luck selling elsewhere. My sales are going to be pretty low without eBay. But they make getting help is so hard!
I don't even know if there is a deadline for signing up to managed payments. I thought the deadline was the end of 2020. But I read somewhere it is now the end of 2021? I never received an email that said I HAD to register, but I keep getting a message on my seller account:

Any luck so far? I'm having this problem now....
