Paypal limited for careless error; Ebay account NOT limited

[hapajenn1]

Both the PP and EB are quite aged, with hundreds of sales and incoming funds to the PP, but I made a careless & stupid error.

I forgot my pw to the Paypal and since I was away from home on a remote IP, I tried to simply reset it by having PP email me at the registered email address. This seemed to trigger a red flag because 5 min. later PP emails with a "we noticed unusual activity..." email.

Now I have to submit either a Photo ID or Proof Of Address (this must be an electricity bill copy).
One slight problem that might alarm the PP manual review person is that the name registered is not a real person and the address entered in PP is not a valid address in the USPS postal system (I bought the EB/PP from one of the bigger sellers on this forum ...) Please help as I definitely want to keep this account.

Option 1) submit the Photo ID
Option 2) try to by-pass the PP limitation, make a new PP and link it to the EB that is okay? Will this work?

1) Yes

2) No

Is PP usually easy with approving the Photo ID portion ? Or do they look closely at details and such of the identification?

I ask b/c last time in 2013 I submitted Photo ID and noticed the D.O.B. doesn't even match what I entered on EBay . . but it was approved before.... do you guys suggest I keep the same wrong D.O.B. as the previous Photo ID (or instead put the correct D.O.B. entered on Ebay personal information?)

you were lucky last time.

one thing they definately do is cross-check the registered details with the stuff you submit...

i think i might have lost the stealth acct simply due to underperformance on the seller account.
i didn't pass as I received too many negative feedbacks and such -- even though its 96% or something for the EB seller status -- should I even attempt to get it reinstated? I've never had a EB seller account get terminated for underperformance.

Wait you stated you bought the account on here ....
They want a front and back copy of your id right?
