eBay - verifying PayPal account

I am new to selling items on eBay and I have recently listed some items.

One of the items is now currently at just over £10.

I am trying to edit the listing (nothing significant) and I keep getting a message to say that I need to verify my Paypal account. I am unable to revise the listing.

I am able to edit my other listings successsfully.

Has anyone else experienced this? Am I likely to experience problems at the end if a buyer wants to pay via Paypal?

OH has just done a test sending money to my Paypal account and it went through successfully

It will take ages to verify my Paypal account especially with the postal strike and I need to change my name on the account which will complicate matters further.

    Isn't verification when they put two small payments in your bank account? Nothing to do with the post.
