Summary: pathfindero expressed frustration over eBay's package tracking issues affecting their payment timeline.

Hello,
i am having a problem recently, actually is the 3-rd in the last month:the package is delivered but its status in eBay is still "Shipped" instead "Delivered", the problem is that this is affecting the payment in the manner that usually is done in 8 days after the package is delivered, now payment it supposed to be in Nov 3, which is not acceptable.While contacting eBay help, an AI assistant kicks in and doesn't fix the problem i am askig you for help
Order number is :21-15150-38163
Any help is appreciated
Thanks

Hello @pathfindero - it’s understandable that it’s frustrating for you when you contact customer service with a specific problem and don’t get to a solution there.
Since we on the eBay Community Team continue to read along here, I was able to have your tracking number updated at eBay just now. Your payout has already been released as a result.
Best wishes
Miriam

Mentor2 weeks agoHello @pathfindero
I have one final question for you about this:
did you create / buy the labels where this happened on eBay?
pathfindero
OP2 weeks ago · EditedHello,if by label you mean the tracking number, yes i obtain it from the courier and attach it to the sell.Until about a month ago all package status update worked well.For 3 ones, it didn't .That's all

Mentor2 weeks agoHi @pathfindero there are no ebay staff members here like before who could work with an order number, unfortunately.
Feel free to contact support by phone or enter "call" or "staff member" a few times in the chat bot, then you’ll get a call back.
eBay tracking always lags behind, unfortunately that’s been the case for a long time now.

OP2 weeks agoHello,
thanks for the answer.
Basically they use my money for 1 month..."Nice"

Mentor2 weeks agoWhat are they using your money for, then? Do you think it will have offspring if it just lies around uselessly and waits for payout? It’s really kind of weird that some users keep having a problem because the tracking doesn’t work correctly. I’ve never had that, and I don’t even create my labels on eBay.

OP2 weeks ago · EditedAny money kept in an account, produce some interest...You do the math ;)
The tracking was working correctly, DPD delivered the parcel and the delivery proof was available.The loop wasn't closed, meaning eBay didn't "saw" the package was delivered (here is a communication problem between eBay and DPD, which should be fixed by eBay together with DPD)

Mentor2 weeks agoNo @pathfindero you agreed to all the conditions

there are various reasons for withholding payments, but it's all explained above in the link.

OP2 weeks agoOriginal issue was updating package status not about payment holding.If package update is made just after the package deliver , the payment is made after 8 days (my case), if the update is not made, then the payment is hold for more than 1 month.The communication problems between the courier (e.g. DPD) and eBay is not members problem, and should not affect me emers in any way.Have a good day
