Forum

My ideas are too rude to say on the forum. Yeah, sometimes one part of paypal has no clue what the other part is doing. Your account may well be closed to you but paypal have not pressed the right buttons to close it. Probably a computer generated letter.

my PP has been limited.
 

I just found out my PP has been limited today. The reason is the transaction b/w ebay and paypal create the high risk. I am selling the Vero, I don't think I can provide the suppler's contact. are there any solution? are there anyone can help me to reinstatement?

thanks

I can still receive money. the things I cant do is close account, send or require payment, and take my money out.

You will need to just send them photos of your stock if you cannot provide them with supplier info.

paypal limited my account with 2k on account.
 

Hi,

about a month ago, i made new pp account using ⊗⊗⊗⊗ info and veritified.
Everything was ok.
I tried to make payment thru e-check and pp took money from my bank account.
But during this processing time, paypal limited my account to vertified location by phone. So i did it.
But during the pp's review, e-check cancled becasue pp acct was under the limitation. Once pp acct restored, e-check still cancled and pp held my money $2k. I tried to withdraw to bank acct but not they limit again and i need to provide SSN for restore pp.

What should i need to do right now? Do i need to enter ⊗⊗⊗⊗ SSN?
Or is there are anyway i can get money back?

Who is this so called 'chris character' i think he was banned from here just after i signed up

You can call them an tell them that you refuse to give up your SS# due to identity theft fears. Ask them for another method to prove your identity. If that fails, you wont see that money for 180 days. DON'T GIVE ⊗⊗⊗⊗ SS#! They check and compare those 100%.

He was this dude with no life who purposely gave false info and ripped people off on this board, once he was banned many people came forward about his deceits...his name on here was Chris Hansen

No, stop lying guys, Chris was an honest, trustworthy person who's aim was to help people in online communities.


OP, it's very likely your paypal will get limited. It's a mandatory thing now they do to check your identity.

wait, i read on other threads that this chris guy was a good person, so whats the deal? is he or is he not?

I always wanted to know what happened to Chris...

..and yea.. chances are you will get limited especially if your account has never been limited for the initial review. Also don't be scared of getting limited, embrace it. Its inevitable.

it WILL happen its GUARANTEED to happen, don't think you won't get limited because you will, UNLESS you use the paypal account to buy or if you recieve small amounts of money like $5,$10...etc nothing big.

PP account limited after receiving Payment.
 

this morning i received a payment from a buyer using PayPal after an Ebay auction by checking my email.
i didn't even open my new paypal account yet, after 1 hour i checked my email and there is : your paypal account is limited.
so i provided them all the infos needed .phone , SS , and the tracking infos.
my question is : how long they will release my funds if they confirm the shipping.
and is this for every new PAyPal account or no ?
i received $375 from the buyer?

The problem was you didn't open and verify your account before accepting the money, if you provided everything they should lift it in about 7 days. Also calling them always helps.

no, my paypal account is verified and confirmed.
what i mean is : i got limited even before i entered to my PayPal account to print the label.
i think that PayPal limited the new account after receiving the Payment.

Oh, ok...was this your first payment received? Im guessing its probably the amount. On new accounts they Limit once you "bump" your sales up...but once you get the Limit Lifted you have alot more freedom the only thing you really have to worry about is disputes.

yes.my first sale . but i passed the phone verification using AIM and everything..
if they release my funds earlier can i withdraw my money or no?

Once the Limit is Lifted you will be able to withdraw

PayPal screwed me!
 

Hi. Well, I have two PayPal accounts which I'm using to accept payments from my auctions and both are verified with all information except a ssn. Well, yesterday I got an e-mail from PayPal saying that my account showed high risk and that they need to confirm ssn's to continue and unlimit me. So, what am I to do, both accounts have made up info? I thought of everything and haven't came up with a solution. One account has $1200 and the other $1400. I'm fuming mad. I don't want to call them because the accounts have two different names and everything and they limited both of them so who do I say I'm? Thanks.

take a number, you are screwed. wait 180 days to get your funds or refund your buyers and get them to send you the money another way.

Well, there have been members here who have used their relatives SSN who live with them and it's worked. Some have been able to persuade Paypal from needing a SSN. Letting them know that they don't feel comfortable giving that information out. Paypal usually limits when you make more then around $1400 a day. Or you increase your sales too fast; you go from a couple hundred per day to a thousand a day. They don't like that and think you're out to scam someone. Next time, you have to take it much slower then what you're doing, or spread your money out over more accounts. And remember Paypal will link you just the same way eBay does. They usually won't do anything about it until a limit occurs, but they will usually know when you have more then one account.

Well. I called PayPal and told them that I didn't want to give them my ssn and they said that there was nothing that they could do then. They said that my account would remain limited and in 180days they will e-mail me to receive the money. The thing is I have had an account in that situation before and it said when I logged in that in 180days I would be able to recieve the funds, well with this account I don't have that message it just says account limited because of ssn. My question is, how do I know that they are just telling me that on the phone and then in six months they will say well you have to wait another six months since it doesn't state that in my account?
