Paypal payments going to old paypal address. HELP

I changed my regisitered address for ebay and paypal about 4 weeks ago

Today a pile of sales finish and all the payments show as pending

When I look at the details, the ebay checkout has directed them to the old address

How to I change this now to stop more happening

How do I fix the old ones

I do not want to add the old address back on as it is a work address to which I no longer have access

paypal and ebay help button is all about selling the benefits of paypal sio it is no help at all

  • Looks like there is no way to fix this

    From what I have found, eBay picks up the email address from the last for sale form and not from your ebay account or your paypal account

    No wonder I have 8 bidders who have not paid yet
  • Why don't you just add the email addy, collect the monies and then remove it again?
    Problem solved :)
