Paypal Account Upgrade. Business or Premier??

temps425 · #1 08-07-2008

PP says they want to upgrade from personal to premier or business account. Is it irrelevant which one I chose as far as less limits? Will I have to verify after I upgrade?

I always go for Business, and it works well for me.

but they still ask you for documents right

For business? Nope, you just need a confirmed and verified account and you're good to go. I have fewer problems with business paypal accounts then regular ones. They're highly recommended.

In paypal's eyes. A business to them is someone selling items regular over and over. Thats a business to them lol.

Well I went with a business account, but those payments that were blocked have still not been released. They show up as pending under SOLD ITEMS.

When I click them, it still says to chose an account upgrade, but I just did that.

I have been able to take payments since then, but the originally locked payments are not showing up. Cant even see the address to ship them...

Right Paypal doesn't verify your business which is why I recommend creating one. My latest Paypal account is about 6 months old, I started it as a business account, verified it and had it confirmed and it's still going strong. And yes of course Paypal will ask you eventually for a SS#, I did not dispute that but you know what? I have that settled.

Game has changed a whole heap since 2008 which is when this thread started.

What are you concerned about at the moment, mrzoo?

Give them credit, they were digging and searching and found something.

Event though 6 years later and I also LMAO we encourage users to search to see if anything has been asked before.

Both eb and pp changes like clock work, that is why so many successful stealthers here spend time on the forum to keep up with all the new changes.
