@economy_of_the_e (Economy of the Essence) posted a new topic, subject "Deposit". It read:

   Hey guys,
    
    I'm new to Amazon seller, I recently sold my very first item, and I received an email telling me that my bank acct info was wrong. I got the email twice and reviewed it and resubmitted. Now, today was suppose to be my deposit date, but nothing went in. I received a new email telling me that my credit card was invalid or missing. Why would they need my credit card info on the “charge method” to finally deposit my funds? It's annoying how it keeps delaying it.

    Are you located in the United States?

    Because if they send you your funds and you then get a return request, they need to ensure there is a method to cover the refund to the buyer.

    Amazon's standard ongoing verification for accounts is to initiate a pending charge of around $1. If that is not successful, their assumption is that there is a problem with the account including potential fraud.
    
    There is a requirement that every account requires a chargeable credit card. If you do not have one, you will need to establish or borrow one.
    
    Amazon only charges the credit card if there is a negative balance.
    
    There is no point debating it. It is an easy problem to fix. Just get on with it OR your account will never process any deposits.
