Hello, I would like to switch my private eBay account to a business account. The problem is that I can't get my bank account verified. Incidentally, this is the same bank account that eBay has already transferred money to and from which I have already bought on eBay. My path, as far as I have managed so far: --> eBay account--> personal data--> edit eBay account type--> "to upgrade to a business account, please update account details..." button "confirm"--> business type changed (green checkmark at the top) --> eBay account - verify personal data with ID (green checkmark at the top)--> confirm bank details .......... Here I entered my bank details again and then clicked through the tool that appears and did everything eBay wanted from me there. My last 4 digits of the IBAN and my bank are also shown correctly afterwards. Under bank details it then says: "Please confirm that all the bank account details below are correct." and at the very bottom there are 2 buttons. back and continue. When I click continue, I always get: We could not verify this bank account. Please choose another payment method. But there is no option to choose another payment method and I only have the one bank account. And as described above, it is the same account as on my private account, which has already been verified. Please help. I'm really stuck here. Especially since I have already waited a few days now, because I thought it would just take a little while. Otherwise I will close my eBay account and simply register a new one if switching it is so complicated. And thanks in advance for your help.
