trouble registering for managed payments

We are a Partnership in UK registered as a business and selling on ebay.

We are having trouble registering for managed payments as instructed with dealine of 16 Oct, its not recognising my correct bank details, then my account is half disabled for a few hours! Very scary! 

Now reading many people people having heaps of problems and higher fees when they do manage to register.

Just wondering what is the latest info on all this...................

I have decided to see what everyone else is doing as I am not a big user of the community pages but like the message I reply to my wife and I are a partnership business and we have been trying to register since July - only becuase we have to...as we have a "funds now" paypal account and that makes life so much easier.....Well we have uploaded everything we have including and reluctantly our last tax return....but despite getting 48 hours without a red banner on our seller hub we are still unable to be verified - to say its driving me mad would be an undertstatement.....18th Jan was our deadline but I am assured we are ok to carry on regardless .....WHAT I seriously don't like is being told by ebay to register as a sole trader ?? why the hell should I !!

and now having come and looked around this board with people suggesting money transfers are taking a week - I'm keeping quiet whilst we are still taking the dollar the old school way with paypal....
