Anyone still having paypal account limited after first payment?
 

I know many people got their stealth paypal accounts limited after first payment last month.

This happened to me too. But this week, I haven't have any fresh paypal limited after first payment anymore.

Just curious what is going on with your guys? Does the situation getting better now?

Which country is it your having this issue with?

Re: Anyone still having paypal account limited after first payment?
 

nope, if you have risky items, they limit after first sale, ive change item names around and get about 2-3 sales before limit. but i still see a ton of other sellers out there doing the same thing so I know there must be a way

I am using Chinese paypal. But I think this banning wave is a global issue.

Re: Anyone still having paypal account limited after first payment?
 

haha, that's what I am doing to keep every account surviving. I only make at most 3 sales on each account. I also change item names for each account.

Except that I am selling the high risk items. I think the riskiness is not a problem.

I am thinking that paypal may have updated their detection system to include a item name scan. If people who keep using the same item name for each account got limited on the first sales while we can last longer until the fourth or fifth items, then it must be the name issue.

I believe you are correct

Re: Anyone still having paypal account limited after first payment?
 

yep still happening

Re: Anyone still having paypal account limited after first payment?
 

Not sure what's going on but I have not had any accounts go down....none.

Re: Anyone still having paypal account limited after first payment?
 

So...you are selling high risk items? Or not...? If yes, then riskiness is a problem

Re: Anyone still having paypal account limited after first payment?
 

Yes still happening if received the payment in newly account then right away limited
wth is this
when this problem will papal resolved for us.

Re: Anyone still having paypal account limited after first payment?
 

It's the items you guys are listing first. You said your selling high risk items that's your problem there is no banning wave or whatever your thinking.

Re: Anyone still having paypal account limited after first payment?
 

Why don't you try selling some non risky items then try listing these items again and see what happens

Re: Anyone still having paypal account limited after first payment?
 

I'm selling high risk items on multiple accounts aged over 90 days and haven't had any problems with paypal yet. I also sold first item on an account a few days ago with no problems but I'm listing 5$ low risk used items to start out my accounts. i only list one high risk item just after the 30 day mark, 2-3 items @ 60 days and at 90 days I keep 5-8 listed at all times replacing when one sells.

I paid 37$ to extend my membership over this topic so I really hope this topic ends up with a conclusion.

I haven't tried to withdraw on this new account but I usually don't until after the 90 day mark when I add a BA and 21 day hold is gone. I'll buy things using the account but haven't yet.

I have had no problems with my accounts. Sounds like the item is the issue

Re: Anyone still having paypal account limited after first payment?
 

In my opinion this thread has come to a conclusion and has been answered before it's your choice if you want to introduce high risk products before the 90day mark or wait till after. I choose too do it after the first month on mine and had no problems all depends on the item. It would be dumb to list a high risk item as your first item.

Re: Anyone still having paypal account limited after first payment?
 

It only happens on fresh account. I know you are already a big seller with bunch of aged accounts.

Re: Anyone still having paypal account limited after first payment?
 

Yes it is risky items. I am thinking it may be the combination of the riskness and freshness that got us limited.

Re: Anyone still having paypal account limited after first payment?
 

I start to have a feeling that it is a permanent problem. Paypal may have upgraded the detection system

Re: Anyone still having paypal account limited after first payment?
 

I am talking about the banning wave for the fresh account that sells high risk items. If you are selling legit items, you are always fine. But I know many people in this forum selling high risk items.

Re: Anyone still having paypal account limited after first payment?
 

This may be a solution, but many risky items sellers don't want to wait that long. For a fresh account we only have 5 or 10 selling space and we don't want to waste them. It may be a profit cut if we have to do this every time.

Re: Anyone still having paypal account limited after first payment?
 

You are talking about your fresh accounts have no problem selling a lot non-risky items in a short time period? Like above $100 and 5 items per day？

Re: Anyone still having paypal account limited after first payment?
 

If you wait for that long, then I don't think your account is fresh anymore. I think your account is safe. The limit issue that many people have been complainting about is they got limited on the first sales immediately, but they put the high risk items at first.

Conclusion:
If you are selling non-risky, you are fine anyway.
If you are selling high risk, you are also fine if you start slowly with non-risky.
If you are using the aged account, you can fly anywhere.
If you are selling high risk and don't want to start with non-risky, change the items name for each account.
