SIMPLE WAY TO GET AROUND PAYMENT HOLDING AND HOW RELEASE YOUR FUNDS INSTANTLY.
Over the last 8 weeks, paypal has started holding payments until a positive feedback has been left, or you wait 21 days, which ever arrives 1st. Now this is completely detremental to small sellers who rely on buyers payments to purchase in more stock and ship items. The smaller sellers rely on the payments to clear fast to be able to get more stock to sell, which is near impossible now these restrictions have come in.
Well there is a way around that, if you dont want to wait. And why should you have to? it is your money after all!
HERES HOW TO RELEASE HELD PAYMENTS.
Log in to your PayPal account.
Log in to your paypal account through the proper paypal url, always type in the url yourself.
Click the History sub-tab.
This will take you to all payments recieved within the last 30 days.
Find the payment on hold you want to release.
Thisn will be in your payments history, locate the payment on hold you want to release.
Click Details to open the Transaction Details page.
Ok, so you have found the transaction on hold you want to release and be able to withdraw
Click the Refund Payment link.
Don't panic, your not refunding them the item cost, though you will need to make a small nominal payment, something around £0.10 - £0.25p. Include a short message to the buyer saying its a gesture of good will for their custom. (This also encourages the buyer to use you again in the future)
Enter the refund amount and click Submit.
As stated just above, it only needs to be a tiny amount.
Confirm the refund amount and click Submit
Hey Presto. When you return to the Account summary page your payment that was on hold has now been released and you can use it to pay for items or withdraw as normal.
I hope that this has been of help, it has been working perfectly for me for the last 8 weeks without problem, and many others are now learning how to take control of THEIR money again.
Sometimes, these big know nothing companies think they can play god with peoples money, well enough is enough
