Etsy is withholding 515,000 TL (over $15,000) with no reason — no violations, no open cases, no payout.
Hi everyone, I'm reaching out as a last resort after nearly two weeks of dealing with this issue. Etsy is currently withholding 515,000 TL (~$15,500) from my account — funds that are clearly marked as “Available for Deposit.” My account has: No open cases No disputes No payment holds or violations Despite this, I haven't received my payout. Every day I contact Etsy Support, and every day I'm told: "Your funds will be disbursed today." "Please wait until the end of the day." "Everything looks fine with your account." "It’s just a routine review." Yet nothing happens. I'm being given new promises daily, and none are fulfilled. This situation is affecting my ability to operate my business — I can't ship new orders or continue production because I’m waiting on a significant amount of money that should’ve already been paid. I've also helped multiple friends open Etsy shops through my referral. But now I feel abandoned by a platform I’ve trusted. Attached are: Screenshots of Etsy promising specific payout dates Proof of my account status (no violations) My Payment Summary showing available balance not being disbursed I’m asking Etsy to provide transparency and clarity. I have done nothing wrong — this is not a reserve issue, and no case has been opened on my account. If anyone else has faced this or knows where else I can raise this issue, please let me know. Thank you. my seller name dcmarble on Etsy
