Hi dallwright, thanks for your post.
If your account was registered in the US, and you're living in the UK you might need to register a new account under the UK region as you will need to add a bank account from the UK eventually to get paid for the items you sell, and if your account was registered in the US, it won't accept a UK bank account.
Thank you,
Marco
