Unable to list ads because I can't set up autopayment

[thatgeeknextdoor]

The error I'm getting is "Unable to use this PayPal account to set up monthly payments for your selling fees. Please try another PayPal account."

My Paypal is a premier, and is linked to my Ebay account. Not entirely sure what to do.

In fact, I already have Paypal hooked up to automatic payments for Ebay.

Please help, I'm losing money fast.

I'm not certain that I understand. Is this error occurring when you try to list an item or is it when you try to add an email to your paypal account for seller fees? the third possibility is that you've hit your limit for the month and you're simply getting a wrongly worded message.

After I try and post my ad, it wants me to link a Paypal account - again - And that's where it has a problem.

Possibly related, I'm no longer able to make purchases from a specific seller."This seller will not sell to buyers that do not meet their requirements."

I think you need to double-check that spot where the paypal account is linked to your seller ID. It looks to me like there is a fault in that since the second error is specific to you not having a paypal account linked to your ID as a buyer, either.

You need to go into the Seller Account Settings.

Go to Account > Paypal Account and then the section that says Buying and selling on eBay

Buying on eBay: Your eBay account is linked to this PayPal account for purchases: XXXXXXXXXX Unlink accounts.


Important: If you remove the link between your eBay and PayPal accounts, you'll have to go through a few extra steps each time you buy items from sellers who require a confirmed PayPal account as their payment method.


List Item
Selling on eBay: You specify the payment method you accept from buyers when you list items for sale. See and update your selling preferences on eBay.

If all that is the way it should be (a valid, verified account is already linked) I'm afraid that you might have to call Customer Service to explain the reason this iosn't working for you.

Good luck.
