I got the request to upload my drivers license a few days ago. Went ahead and did it and within an hour received a message that it was received and all is good. Went into Payments and there is a red dot with an explanation point under my available funds which I assume means my funds are on hold. Then it hit me when I uploaded the license I also updated with my full middle name (It's on my license). Now my full middle name is not on my bank account, just middle initial. So I went and updated in my business information name to just the middle initial and the red dot went away.
Now today the red dot with explanation point is back. Any Thoughts? Anyone else experience this when you uploaded your license? Thanks All

Yes, almost identical, but with a possible small twist.
My first update of needed info for verification was maybe a year ago, and after great turmoil was made to work.
On the 1st of Nov I received the red banner stating I needed to update my account info. The system asked for the driver's license images to be updated (even though NOTHING has changed in the last year).
ON 2 Nov I called eBay support and with the help of a rep I uploaded the required images. He indicated that all was now well and to wait a few days for the red banner to go away.
On 4 Nov the red banner remained, so I used the chat help feature in which the new rep spotted the remaining problem. My eBay account (not bank account) had my middle initial not in the "middle initial" field on the screen, but following my first name in the "first Name" field. The rep had me simply delete (not move) the middle initial and submit the change along with the driver's license images which were once again in need of submission, in spite of having just been provided two days earlier.
I have my three full names on my drivers license like we probably all do.
The funds on hold seems to be an entirely different transaction, as mine were never held (during the 3 days) though the eBay message said they were.
I realize this may or may not be of help but maybe you can find a nugget in here. Good luck!

Also meant to point out that as soon as the data changes were input, the red banner immediately went away, even before we ended the chat session.
