When does email about 180 day hold appear?
 

I am here to ask a very simple question. When am I supposed to receive the email about how I can reclaim my funds in 180 days? Paypal has just requested more info from me, and since I don't have it I am assuming this limitation will hold. When am I going to get this email about the 180 day hold, and when does it start? Thanks.

You need to complete that request first.
If it fails then you will be permanently shut down an the 180 days start.

If you ignore the document request, it will just stay that way until you add them.

What are they asking for?

I have one asking for bank a bank statment. And I definitely don't have this for its a VBA that I used to verify

I'm angry though because I can't Send a refund on the money frozen and I've never seen that before.

Thanks for your responce.

can you not get a prepaid bank account to add to the account?

From my own experience - the e-mail notification aside...the 180 day countdown usually starts from the day your account is limited OP

Sometimes they will send it after 45 days, sometimes you will have to wait 180 days. But this letter will still contain the only one possible text, saying that the only way to get your money back is to create a named bank account. Which is obviously not possible for stealth accounts. So this 180 block usually means "forget about your money".

The 45 day one is rare but happens - not the default of the system to rely on though...

180 days after your limitation cannot be appealed(AKA BANNED). You can shorten this to 45 days by making up a sob story to corporate.

normally I dont do anything with my paypal limited , I think they count 180 days from the day paypal limited .

I think Bunneh is right though- If you guys understand what I am asking.

Basically just because I've gotten limited doesn't mean that I have gotten the email about the wait period and if it will be 45 or 180 days.

Yes, that's correct. Hope you have all the details to get your money back! Take care!
