Re: Figure out WHY it was limited, and HOW to fix it Quote:
Originally Posted by kirkland I logged into my PayPal today to find out it was limited (eBay is unaffected). I can still receive payments but cannot withdraw. The account was about a week away from the 90 day mark. Here are the main reasons I'm thinking:
- I paid for a shipping label a few days ago when I had insufficient balance, so it drew from my bank account. They may not have liked the details they found
- I sold an item in a category I had not sold in before. Item is high risk VERO (although I've sold other VERO items with no issue on the same account, but I believe this new category is riskier than the previous ones) A question: when PayPal draws from your bank account, what information do they see besides the name? Can they see the address too?
They are asking for photo ID, proof of address, supplier info (not invoices) and proof of shipping to make sure I have the items I claim to have. But I need some help to get “creative” in terms of supplying the “identity verification” documents. Can anyone give some general pointers? (I tried searching, but as stealth is always changing, I wanted to get updated info) |

They can not even see name or address. They are sending money to your account, they are not receiving them, otherwise those VBAs sold for 6$ will not work.
Main reason it was your KARMA score was below 0, so you got hit with a ban. You should have aged your accounts more or wait more time before sales...
Ebay have a 10 items and 500 score, because it is more easy for people to understand.
Adding a KARMA score on EBAY will run everybody mad.
But for Fraud prevention, like PayPal KARMA score is gold. So you got a 1000 karma score
and 100$ from US = 100 karma point, but one payment from a latin country might mean -500 karma scores.
So you get 1 payment from US and one from Colombia and you are 1000 - 600 = 400
You do an ebay sales and you are down to 200 , you do another one and boom limited.
So ...
What is the best way to increase your ebay rating?
Doing a lot of small sales. Right? you sell 10 x 10$ product and you get a limit of 30 / 3500 USD right? then 100 / 5000 right?
If you sell 1 item of 500 your limit will remain at 10 / 500.
The only way to increase your paypal karma score is to sell small items and wait!
