I'm trying to change my payout bank account and your site is saying it can't verify my bank account
09:35:27 UTC Sattyajeet
I can see you are getting an error message saying your bank account cannot be verified and you wish to update your payout method, am I correct?
09:35:34 UTC ts_mpls
yes
09:35:49 UTC Sattyajeet
Thank you for the confirmation, please be assured that I'm here to check this and help you further.

Timothy, before I proceed further to help you with updating your payout method, I would need to do a verification process for security reasons.
09:36:51 UTC Sattyajeet
Could you please help me with the 6 digit code sent to your registered phone number?

Timothy, could you please help me with the bank name and last 4 digits of the bank account number, which you are trying to add?
09:41:05 UTC ts_mpls

09:41:40 UTC Sattyajeet
Thank you for sharing the details. Could you please tell if this bank account is added to any other eBay account(s)?
09:41:49 UTC ts_mpls
it shouldn't be
09:42:04 UTC Sattyajeet
Thank you for confirming that. I request you to allow me two minutes to check this for you.
09:42:12 UTC ts_mpls
sure
09:43:19 UTC Sattyajeet
Thank you for waiting. I appreciate your patience.

Timothy, I have reviewed the details and I can see that the bank account which you are trying to add is not compatible with our system, that is why you are getting the error message.
09:44:43 UTC Sattyajeet
Here, I would recommend you to try adding a different bank account for payouts.
09:44:48 UTC ts_mpls
any idea why it wouldn't be compatible?
09:46:44 UTC Sattyajeet
It is most probably because the bank is not supported with our Managed payments system and the financial institution is not on our allow list. I can send your details to the back end team for review, however, as per my research, even they might not be able to white list your account. However, I will send the details just in case.
09:47:09 UTC Sattyajeet
In the meantime, the fastest resolution for you would be to to add a different bank account for payouts.
