Should I use Authorize.net?
 

I just had my first issue with PayPal, first limiting my account asking for a Photo ID. I Photoshopped a ID and they denied my appeal saying to complete any open orders and they'll contact me in 180 days to collect the $1K thats in the account. (Happy I connected a bank and verified it before I started selling, sounds like i'll be able to recover funds)

This account is very old over a year with $25,000 limit and over 100 positive feedbacks and I want to keep it. I have a new Authorize.net account that's never been linked to a eBay account (strictly for my website) and was thinking about connecting that as a payment gateway.

What do you think? Is it worth it?

You will lose 90% of your sales on that eBay account, but it's better than losing 100% of your sales, right?

Yeah, people like seeing PayPal, that makes sense.

Have you tried calling in? Maybe you can appeal again? It's worth a shot, you don't have much to lose at this point.

Could try for a different pp agent and hope for some success
