Activity: 0% Longevity: 54% | | Paypal Blue Box of Death
when you wake up and check on a few paypals with no ssns, and have paypal balances ranging from 30-40-50-60 in each and you cannot withdraw it because you can't add a bank account because you dont have access to the original phone number on the account,
when you can't send it to another paypal account because of this claim it bs.....
can't withdraw a check because they will do a phone verification.......so what do we do.......?
I call it the blue box of death, this is similar to a permanent limitation if you think about it.....it renders the paypal account completely useless.......

This is why keeping a active phone number on the accounts is always important

Not an excuse, and sure it does. Otherwise, you end up in the mess you are in now.

If you don't want to keep an active number on file, you take a risk, and you deal with the consequences as and when they arise. It's as clear cut as that.

Its a security protocol. To override it you'll need to call in. Its unlikely to work in your favour given its a stealth account and you dont have the original number to hand. So you'll be running around in circles.
I've had it happen to my genuine PayPal - even then it took months for me to regain access.
We're not being mean, we've all been there and know how it works.

I still don't understand what you could possibly need that many accounts for. You'll probably have to write off that $40-60 x 500 as a loss.
