I'm sorry if I'm using the forum incorrectly, but I would like to vent and ask for advice on how to approach this.
I purchased a cheap phone on ebay, and the phone was removed from ebay a couple days after. My payment had already gone through, however I never received the phone. PayPal noticed suspicious activity on my account, and asked for a form of I.D. to prove I was the account owner. I provided my Passport as my I.D., and was greeted, a few days after, with a permanent PayPal limitation.
The only reason that makes sense to me is they had noticed that I made my account before the age of 18. None of my information is removable. I've emailed PayPal support, and contacted them on Facebook, but have yet to receive a response.
How should I approach this, and what can I do about it? I feel as though I can't make a new account, because although I have a new bank account since this happened, they still have my phone number and address, and I fear that if I create a new account with the same details, I will be caught and permanently limited again. On the other hand, if I use some ⊗⊗⊗⊗ details, and eventually need to provide I.D., they will realise the details do not match up and limit me.
Additionally, do I have a Right to erasure, in accordance to Europe's GDPR laws? Or will PayPal pull some bull**** out to counter it?
Responses are appreciated. |
