Blocked Withdrawals

[rorkesdrift951]

Has anyone else run into to the RANK STUPIDITY of paypal & ebay - you send an item, record tracking info, the item is received & good feedback left - and STILL paypal blocks withdrawal??

You try and call them - and end up with some half-wit who is looking for tracking info.....when the item shows as being received ???  That is AFTER you manage get past their STUPID robot!!

Do Paypal / Ebay recruit staff with the lowest possible IQ - or are their systems deliberately obstructive?!!

Honestly, between ebay & paypal, their combined IQ is lower than a lobotomised donkey!

• As a new or occasional seller your first few payments are subject to a 21 day security hold
•
• This is to ensure you are genuine & have the items you advertised for sale
•
• When you look in Paypal (all activity) and it says "pending OK to send" then you must send the item
•
• Your funds will be held for 21 days in order to allow you to send the goods, for them to arrive & be checked by the buyer & for any possible issues to be resolved
•
• This process can be accelerated to just 7 days if you send the item by a tracked service with online delivery confirmation. When you add the tracking number to eBay & Paypal & it shows delivered then on day 8 the funds are released.....THIS CANNOT BE BYPASSED & YOU CANNOT WITHDRAW FUNDS UNTIL RELEASED

WHAT???? How does a buyer give good feedback on something they haven't received????

I posted the tracking #s for ALL items - and the systems have lost ALL of them!!!
