Paypal issues to deal with limitation
 

I read the stealth guide but it did not specify the exact # of requirements you gotta get past to lift the limits on a New PP account.
I've waited about a year to let this PP account mature and have about 1K (now frozen) from ebay selling.

Did step #1) confirmed cc with 2 small deposits
step #2) credit card statement -- this account is stealth so I can't fax in a bank statement
step #3) phone verification/location -- this step I made a stupid mistake because the stealth info is in a different state than the number I used to verify -- so now PP says they will mail a "letter" to the **** address.
step #4) linking bank account -- I can do this later.

***My question is how many of the four above steps do I need to complete to be able to withdraw funds ? Are all four steps required? Or can I just link my bank account and that is sufficient to withdraw funds immediately? Please help.

Paypal Limited: how to resolve issues
 

So far after reading a lot of these update posts I am confused on getting a fresh new PP past the initial withdraw/send limits..Do you need 2 steps (1)link a bank account and (#2) verify w/ CC..or do you also need to verify with phone and send in a CC statement?

99% of PP problems derive from Human Error.

How long has your account been frozen/limited?

Most likely your account will be limited for 180 days and then you can withdraw your funds.

What is the actual notice? Did paypal say we have concerns for safety or something else?

Although you say the account was a year old, was there any sort of activity before you tried to receive funds? Did that balance come in over several transactions or just one?

Yes both steps help for security - bank to VERIFY, cc to CONFIRM.

Yes I know that both steps help for security but for the initial lifting to withdraw/deposit to bank acct -- how many things does PP require (my PP has three checkmarks for: small deposits to CC, bank statement documents, phone verification) For my legit PP I lifted those limits many years ago I don't remember how many steps I went through...for the New PP accts do you have to do all three steps (small deposits to CC, bank statement documents, phone verification) before you can deposit to your BA? Help please I am so confused :doh:

While on the topic of depositing to the BA on file -- after the 180 day hold does it still require you to submit info like phone verif, etc.? Can you deposit to the BA you enter, even without lifting any of the limit requirements?

I did not get an official email from PP or Ebay for any sort of suspension, this is for the steps to lift the limits. I have not entered any info on this PP yet (BA, phone verif, etc.) But I did sell off-and-on for the past year and it accumulated to about 1K total...Then when I went to relist items I got hit with the "you cannot sell on this PP email address" message on Ebay.
So technically the PP is not frozen, I just cannot send money or do anything with it.

This is the stuff PP requires for their "limitation review" on new PP -- It was one of the PP+Ebay packages I bought on this forum..The requirements were set-in on PP on March 2011 but I kept selling on the linked Ebay seller account (hence why the account is a year old). The 1K balance came in over many small transactions of the stuff I sold on the seller account..

For the drivers license part, do you just send in the frontside of the drivers license or also the backside?

Paypal usually only request the front of the DL. Ebay request front and back. This is certainly the case in the UK.

OP, as others have said this is not normal procedure for Paypal. Something you have done has triggered this request for ID. Is the address used a "real" address? Have you set up other stealth accounts with similar details? You may be getting linked to another account and Paypal want to know more info about you.

Last USA requests I have handled needed front and back of the license.

Notice normally says what is needed.

:peace:

Current pp policy is to do small deposits to your bank account to verify (2 small deposits). If you add a cc, when you confirm the cc you will be charged 1.95 (pp.com test charge). Then you provide the 4 digit code generate.

You do need a phone on file but they may or may not call you.

For bank deposits, you only need your bank to be verified....and the deposit to go through (account not limited). The cc and phone are not part of the process. The cc helps for increasing receiving limits on the account.

Update: Had to get creative with some of the docs .......
Since I used vanilla visa for the CC ( 2 small deposits ) part and vanilla visa has a 2020 (or 2019) expiration I can't use that for the CC statement. Theres no legit CC from a real bank with such a far away exp date in 2020. So now I have to get creative with a made up one.
Working on the ID part now wish me luck.


Does it make any difference to Fax PP or to use the submit via PP (just by uploading onto PP without Fax)? Since the stupid stealth info I bought from somebody here is all out of state it makes it such a hassle to keep masking the steps with an out of state area code.
