I upgraded my account last week. Auctions ended yesterday and I send out the AW WBN.
Had a number of buyers pay with paypal. Logged into my account and find a number with payments waiting to be accepted. All the buyers have confirmed addresses, so I click on accept and get the following message.
"You must be a Verified member to accept this payment.
To accept this payment, please verify your account now. PayPal requires that accounts receiving payments from our Web Accept, Instant Purchase for Auctions, or Winning Bidder Notification features be Verified. This increases the security of the PayPal network and lowers your risk by completing one of the requirements of our Seller Protection Policy.
You can also refuse this payment and continue to receive payments using other features. But to ensure that you can always receive payments - verify your account today!"
The payments of the buyers who did NOT click on the link in the AW WBN, but logged into their accounts and sent the payment all show as complete.
It's only the people who clicked on the link in the AW WBN that show incomplete. And I can't accept them because I'm not verified.
I'm not able to get verified!
So I guess I just have to make all my buyers mad by returning their payments and hope they don't take it out on my perfect feedback record.
