Solid PayPal Account limited today!
Hi guys, my PayPal account was limited today at around 3pm. Received no email from them either, and I have read up on the forum and can see that a lot of others are gettng hard limited with no email from them either. Everything going perfectly on the eBay account, which had very high limits of 8000 items a month, 810 positive feedback 99.9% positive.
The PayPal and eBay were 9 months old, PayPal had all limits lifted including the £1900 receiving limit. Was purchased from the aspkin marketplace back in April. Logged down ip's too. Just out of nowhere, whilst im packaging my items I refresh the PayPal page and it says Limited account access.
Just need someone to clarify what is actually happening? Heard about PayPal changing something but anyone know what it is. I luckily have a secondary account with more or less same amount of feedback and 7 months old as I built them up at the same pace. Just hope that this secondary account remains active as this is my sole income.
Thank you and appreciate any responses.
Kind Regards,
Usaamah |

Re: Solid PayPal Account limited today!
Do you have any options to remove limitation or account is permanently limited ? |

Re: Solid PayPal Account limited today!
From what I been reading it see,s like PayPal UK has some new methods they are using to verify members Identity and are limited accounts when there check doesn't verify your ID
Now I think as of right now this is just speculation , no one has pin pointed the exact cause but this is where the thinking is at |

No option, permanently limited. |

Re: Solid PayPal Account limited today!
I have to wonder if PayPal is going to start doing the same thing that Amazon does with deleted accounts... |
| usaamah426 | 12-09-2014 04:36 AM |
Re: Solid PayPal Account limited today!
I hope not, for everyones sake. |
Re: Solid PayPal Account limited today!
Retracted dutifully - sorry. |

| Do NOT call OP. This COULD aggravate the situation for when you want to get your money out!
rsot - please stop with saying this, calling is a BAD idea |

Please avoid spreading it too.

Re: Solid PayPal Account limited today!
OP:
I need you to read what I say.
PLEASE totally disregard the info given to you by rsot to call in. This is not the recommended suggestion.
This has been mentioned many other times on the forum regarding these current issues to avoid calling into paypal. rsot appears to never have read these threads although he posted in them :rolleyes:
At all costs avoid making a phone call to paypal. Doing so can harm everything.

| In terms of getting the money out. My PayPal account is limited without a chance to appeal. I haven't received a parting ways email yet. Do you know when this will happen as I'd like the countdown for 180 days to begin asap lol |

| tbf, we are trying to work out the next round on these limitations.
Not enough has been made obvious yet.
We know what NOT to do. That's a given.

| Yes I was about to call in as well lol I suppose having a decent amount of money locked in PayPal can be extremely frustrating! |

Re: Solid PayPal Account limited today!
Hi, yes I didn't have the need to call in as I always keep money in the account as low as possible, only had £30 in the limited account so no point even calling in for that. I've heard many things, however the most convincing thing I have heard is that PayPal are beginning to use a company outside of PayPal to check docs, making it much much more difficult to get the docs approved, especially if they are stealth. |
Re: Solid PayPal Account limited today!
Retracted my statement of calling - sorry.

Re: Solid PayPal Account limited today!
Well then, another 7 month old PayPal account has now gone down too. All was going well, christmas sales booming and then BOOM...log in to find that it is limited with again, no option for appeal. No email, no nothing. Exactly same as first paypal went down. Shame this account had £580 in it ffs. |

Re: Solid PayPal Account limited today!
Was this a personal or business account ? |

Re: Solid PayPal Account limited today!
Paypal is running public records checks now manually per each account, and if something doesn't match, they will limit it. Happens to me as well every once in a while after I get a payment; I would hate to count it as a loss though.. They claim they need to have social security numbers on file in order for this not to happen, but that's really a bunch of horsesh**. Sometimes happens in batches. I got one that they were requesting "proof of business;" doesn't make sense since i just sold a couple items.. Only solution is just to stay ahead of the curve and create more accounts. |
Re: Solid PayPal Account limited today!
usamah ive got the same issue just like yours |

Re: Solid PayPal Account limited today!
This is bad. If they are checking EVERYTHING, we're all going to lose accounts very quickly. |

| If this method of weeding out stealth accounts works in the UK, don't you think it will go overseas? |

It will eventually just a matter of time... |
| usaamah426 | 12-18-2014 08:04 PM |
Re: Solid PayPal Account limited today!
Very bad times at the moment. Just hope the guys on here can find a permanent solution. We as stealthers should never give up until we finally can say that we have truly beaten PayPal at it's on game. |

UK and US PayPal work very differently. |

Speculation simply leads to a downfall in reality. |
| pikachu10 | 12-18-2014 08:17 PM |
Re: Solid PayPal Account limited today!
Now that I think of it, it's better for the UK. Here in the US, we got this thing called a Social Security Number. Yeah. They don't help in stealthing... at all.
All the UK needs to prove is ID and Utility.
US? ID, Utility and SSN. Faking SSN is illegal, so more casualties here. |

| Just use an EIN
We do have something similar in the UK that PayPal has started asking for, a National Insurance card. |

@pikachu and john007, be aware that the discussion is more around pp UK... |

| Lost 20 accounts in UK.
Lesson learned hard way.
Started FRESH : UK, US, CAN,AUS
Bought from different sellers.All Guaranteed FRESH IP's.
Will add few made myself.
+ Sleeper accounts will follow
Exell sheet is my Bible of today.
Every single move is in exell sheet.
Once you look at it deeper, for sure you can find mistkes made.
Even dealing with Stealth 4 years i find quite a few moments to upgrade as a seller
Exell is one of them.
If you dont use exell for every single move, you are not PRO
It took me 4 years and 30 000 usd to loose to realise it |
