Paypal stealth limit
 

I have a stealth account which has been limited by paypal, 180 days have passed however they will not let me withdraw the funds unless I provide proof of ID. Has anyone got around this?

Re: Paypal stealth limit
 

Did you try to add a bank account after the 180 days or did you have one there already?
Whatever it is, you can look at other threads here that postulate some sort of success if you start a small claims court process.
Good luck.

I have 2 stealth accounts which have past the 180 days one of them a bank is already linked and in the final stage it will say I need to call Paypal and they tell me I need ID, the other one it keeps coming up with an error when I try to add my bank.

Every time I send an email to them I get an automated response to the reason why my account was limited.

I’m having no luck at all

I have tried different browser and clearing my cookies and caches when trying to add my bank, this still doesn't work I contacted Paypal and they have been refreshing my account and keep telling me to try after 48 hours which never works

Welcome to the forum OP - all the best as you master stealth :thumb:


Have you tried calling PP as well?

Re: Paypal stealth limit
 

I’ve called so many times and they keep telling me the same information, one account with the bank linked they’re asking for proof of ID and the other account which doesn't let me add the bank they keep refreshing the security and tell me to try again after 48 hours


I had sent them an email aswell regarding small claims court they have just sent me an automated response and it’s been over a month with no actual reply

Re: Paypal stealth limit
 

I've been in that 48 hours loop before. I was told to give it a rest because trying after 48 hours triggers their bot over and again.
I'd suggest you allow one or two weeks go by without trying to withdraw.
If you're unsuccessful after that time, then you may go the document route and small claims court as a last resort.

As regards the other account, how were you selling without a bank account attached?

Re: Paypal stealth limit
 

I had a prepaid credit card linked and and didn’t really require a bank attached to sell.

Thanks I’ll give that a go, would you suggest I call them to refresh it or this will happen automatically?

Re: Paypal stealth limit
 

Try using a brand new Web browser and a brand new user account that should maybe fix the problem. If you don't want to use that get CC cleaner.

It sounds like you're stuck in an infinite loop. You might be on one of pay pal's bed servers. I would actually give that a try what I said in my last comment. Hope u get this working my friend

Re: Paypal stealth limit
 

I do clear my cookies and caches every time I try to add my bank and I’ve used 3 different devices and 2 different browsers, still come sup with same error.

I think my best bet is to open a new bank and try this after a week or so...

I’m not sure creative ID would work because they check ID number ?
