Won my eBay case, but now eBay is taking £671 from my bank account. Help!

I sold an iPhone on eBay UK and recorded a full video of myself packing it before shipping. Tracking confirmed delivery, but the buyer claimed the box was empty.

eBay originally decided the case in my favour with no refund.

However, the buyer then opened a chargeback through their bank and won. Now eBay says they'll take £671 from my bank account in 3 days.

My eBay account is also suspended, so I can't properly manage the dispute.

I have packing evidence, proof of purchase and tracking. I'm honestly stressed because I could lose both the phone and the money.

Has anyone experienced this? Can I appeal through eBay seller protection or stop the charge while they review it?

eBay buyer claims the iPhone was missing from the parcel. The return/refund deadline has passed and the buyer hasn’t asked eBay to step in

The buyer opened return/refund request. The deadline for resolving the return has now passed. The buyer hasn’t asked eBay to step in, but I now have the option to open a case myself and ask eBay to investigate.

Has anyone been in a similar situation? Would you ask eBay to step in now, or wait and see what happens with the return request?

Looking for a cheap room/sublet in Leeds-Short term

Hi everyone!

I'm a University of Leeds student looking for accommodation in Leeds from 30 August 2026.

My current tenancy ends on 30 August 2026, and I need somewhere to stay for until 30 Sept 2026. I'm on a tight budget, so I'm looking for affordable, student-friendly accommodation whether that's a spare room, short-term sublet, or anything similar.

If you know of anything available or have any recommendations, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks so much!
