Limited Paypal account and a new sulation.
 

OK, 3.5 months ago my PP account got limited permanently, therefore I made 2 new PP accounts; but after a couple of days the second one also got limited. So, I started to research about PayPal algorithms for ~100 hours, and got some points. Now, I am using same eBay account, but so far my new PP account(s) has not been limited during the past 3 months.

MAYBE I'M WRONG, but I have a question: is there any user who could use a new PP account for more than 2 months after his/her first account got limited ?

It can last a few years sometimes if your lucky when you are linking a new PayPal to an old eBay with a limited PayPal already linked to it

Half the time it is just down to luck though :)

Most the time its a few weeks to a few months though

A FEW YEARS !!!! wow, interesting!

All the stealths I've made or bought here have been going for years. Several of which were updated to business accounts by adding an EIN.

If you convert a stealth account to business and then take care of it, it can last forever.

The whole issue is WHEN can the pp account(s) go down? That answer is never 100% answerable....sometimes days, weeks, months - some ppl have long success but in GENERAL, it's risky to operate like this

I know, making a stealth account is still the best solution. Unfortunately, I'm lazy enough to start over!! :faint:

And how do you find it the other way?

Are ebay quick to link a new ebay account attached to an old paypal?

I would have thought accounts were just a number .. so PP acccount 1111 is linked to ebay account 1234 so ebay stores paypal 1111 associated with this ebay account no?


I have some aged paypals. Will try adding new ebays, better to earn even a few quid than none.

That is how it works, and is why it doesn't usually last long when sellers attach a new Paypal to their eBay. You can see your eBay account # in your eBay invoices.

Try not to let PayPal limit you and keep the funds...with these limits they get nasty.

Paypal loves "laziness" - that way their system can auto-limit the account and place it into 180 day hold without the need for manual review, etc...
