From the start, I've done everything correctly. Sold three items within a week, all delivered on time buyers happy feedback left. My eBay balance shows money in, and states yours to use on eBay today. But when I go to use it..it says no update bank details. I've updated my details but they rejected. Is this so eBay holds customers money witch they use to make themselves richer on the stock exchange

Why did they reject your bank details?
Which bank is it?

Hi da-656587, thanks for your post.
Some bank accounts are not accepted, and you can only add current accounts, not savings accounts. If this is not the problem, then I presume that you are just unable to verify your bank details? If so, then you need to contact our customer service team, so they can see what's happening and what to do to resolve it.
Thank you,
Marco

Virgin money, the bank and it's details are ok for buying items but eBay holds my money that I've earned, I've rang them over 20 times asking for this to be sorted, all met with where on top of it. Bit nothing has, been done.

Hi da-656587, thanks for your reply.
It looks like you still haven't added any payment methods (that's why the funds are being held), if your account is being rejected, it is probably because it is not in the approved banks list. You can try again to see if you can add it, otherwise, you might need to use a different bank account. Alternatively, you can contact our customer service team, they will be able to look all the information and assist you further, while we would love to assist further over here, we are unable to provide further assistance as this topic includes sensitive/personal information, and we can't handle those over here due to privacy and security reasons.
Thank you,

The whole reply, was basically what I already know. I have spoken with customer services 30 times, same answer. I cannot open a second bank account I don't have photo ID. I apparently own eBay under £20 but they won't take it, from my balance and I've not been advised on how too pay it, and incase anyone asks I don't know any of my old account details.
