Got account limited, I sold digital goods. Was just restored by God. Have a question!
Ok, so my account was limited at the end of December(my account, not a stealth), I sold digital products that Im not authorized to, I thought it was that or the amount of transactions I had in a short period? Either way when my account was limited I thought it was all over for my account. I waited til Friday, almost a month, to send them the info they wanted not sure on what to do.
They wanted:
-My ID(no problem)
-questions on like 10 transactions
-proof of fulfilment on a couple transactions
-invoice from supplier
So I hadn't posted here before now, but I was reading into tons of posts from people who were temp. Limited and from what I saw it looked like I was toast and was gonna get the 180 day ban. Thought about sending ⊗⊗⊗⊗ invoices, read here that barely works but does sometimes. Rarely for digital items��
Also read on here on other people's posts that paypal doesn't like screenshots as proof either, but that was all I could send them for the proof of fulfillment...was screenshots, so I sent them anyway. Plus the questions on my transactions I ended up typing a few paragraphs about the item I sold and posted the same for each one.
For my invoice I typed up a word doc and explained my situation that I make the items myself and I don't have a supplier for an invoice..I just figured whatever, I have a 99% chance of a 6 month ban, it sucks but what can I do.
Wasn't expecting anything til atleast Monday...looked at my email and I saw "your account has been restored" I'm in shock. But yeah, I'm done selling digital items for now, especially ones I'm not supposed to and ebay kicked me. I just want my $800 in there.
So on to my QUESTION: I've heard of people getting restored then they go to withdraw all their funds at once and get limited again. I definitely don't want this to happen again. So I probably shouldn't try to send my $800 all at once right? Should I do $200 increments spread out over a few days, or should I do two $400 withdrawals?
I don't transfer it to my bank because whenever I try to even before I was limited. Paypal always "encounters an error" or says "something's not right" when trying to send it to my bank and none of their support is able to figure out why. That doesn't matter to me though really, I just end up transfering it to my girlfriend who then sends it to me. But should I send her my balance in small increments? To avoid another limit trigger? I've heard transferring it all too quickly can get you limited again.
I would really appreciate any help on the best way to withdraw my money to avoid triggering a second limit on my account. Sorry for the damn story lol
