    Hi
    I have a new PayPal account and I was wondering if all the payments I receive will be held for 21 days? Or only payments from eBay?
    And when they will stop holding my funds for 21 days?
    Thanks

    I have been using PayPal for 3 years now for receiving payments, and have never experienced a hold in payment (except when dealing with an eCheck). However, today I had my first experience with receiving a payment from eBay. I can confirm, yes, this is only for eBay items. They apparently do this 21 day hold for eBay items and it's something I dislike. Not sure if it's just for new eBay customers or not, however I won't continue selling on eBay if these holds continue.

    Yes it is mostly and mainly for ebay item because ebay and paypal are sister sites and paypal dont want their sister website to get financial damaged thats why the paypal has given restriction for 21 days hold but if you have done almost 10 successful transaction and got positive feedback after that paypal will not stop your payment
