Wir können diese Sperre eventuell schneller aufheben, wenn du uns einen Inhabernachweis für das Bank- oder PayPal-Konto schickst. Als Nachweis kann ein Kontoauszug oder ein Schreiben einer Bank auf offiziellem Briefpapier beziehungsweise ein Screenshot von PayPal dienen.

Wenn du Administrator des Kontos bist, kannst du das mit deinem Konto verknüpfte Finanzinstitut in deinem Business Manager Dashboard einsehen.
