Hello,
I have been battling this issue all of a sudden out of nowhere for a couple of months now. Nothing in my account changed, it just one day began.
I have this error -
Your payouts are on hold because the payment method you have on file could not be charged for any outstanding selling costs. Please add one to get paid.
I have a bank account linked to my account for payouts, and a debit card for selling costs. It is 100% setup correctly, I have checked this and even re-added the bank card and bank account.
I seem to be stuck in a loop now where live chat tell me the technical team need to look into it, weeks later I get an email saying the technical team don't have the ability to fix it and I need to go back to live chat.
I can't figure out what the issue is, does anyone have any ideas? I went from selling stuff one day, to this error appearing the next, nothing has changed.

You need to check all the details of your card as they need to be a match with details on your ebay account,such as billing address, name and enter the details correctly when adding the card.
Follow these steps: select manage to the debit card-choose preferred for selling costs and then save.

Hi havani, thanks for your post.
I was checking for you, and I can see you recently updated your selling cost payment method. I do not see any banner or message asking you at the moment to do this, can I just confirm that since you updated your selling cost payment method this issue has gone away or are you still seeing this?
Thank you,
Marco

Thanks, I managed to fix it somehow after weeks of trying! Can't tell you how I fixed it though because I'm not even sure
