I hate PayPal sooo much
 

So just when stuff starts to go good i get hit with EU Receiving Limit ban fair does i upload docs and get lifted
Then they want proof of postage on items and invoices

I did that and then got email saying paypal permanently banned
Now i got £800+ on there and i seriously needed that money for my mum as i support her financially.

Why do this PayPal. I'm literally on the verge of crying ryt now

And the lesson for today is never ever leave excess money that you cannot afford to do without in your paypal !, and to have more than one account up and running and established as having made it past the EU limit so that this situation would not cause you so much stress. We all know that this limit is there and that we will have to face it and get past it. Did the email give you a reason why they have placed this permanent ban on your account?

Didn't give a reason for the limitation
And i did try withdraw money few days prior when account was normal but then was hit with limitation
And i am seriously going to set up a few ebay accounts once i am up and running again

Re: I hate PayPal sooo much
 

You could have been hit with the limiation BECAUSE you tried to withdraw all the money at once YEbaY, it has been known for attempts to make large withdrawals to trigger action like this.

Re: I hate PayPal sooo much
 

I just don't understand why people leave money in their PayPal accounts.

Always transfer it.

Sorry to hear about your situation. I know it is a nightmare.

Also have back up accounts. ALWAYS.

Good luck

I personally never ever keep a single penny in my PP, every payment instantly gets withdrawn. Better to lose a single payment, than accumulate and lose all.

Not much to say but sorry to hear this OP - sadly, I know of your troubles - another proper approach is to spread sales so you don't rely only on one pp

Re: I hate PayPal sooo much
 

you may withdraw after 180 days if paypal allowes you

email them and ask them full reason . always make sure you play safe by wihdrawing 100-200 pound all the time not leave too much money in paypal withdraw at once it triggers the paypal bots

Re: I hate PayPal sooo much
 

Yeah... How the hell do you leave money into PP? I mean... Unless you sell ALL of your stock as you are a sleep and can't do anything about it... But still, **** that noise.

Re: I hate PayPal sooo much
 

I don't understand why ppl keep their funds inside PP. Just withdraw as soon as you get anything, if you need PP to pay something, it can be easily funded with CC.

Now you have to wait, they will allow to withdraw your money in 180 days. Or they won't, if they don't like you.

Thats not always the case i was in the process of withdrawing and was then hit with the fu**ing limitation

Re: I hate PayPal sooo much
 

Sorry to hear your issues. My commiseration go out to your held up money. May it find its way back into your hands safely and untaxed.

Sometimes you can have a busy weekend, say you sell $3000 in sales from Thrusday to Saturday

And this is for US PayPal where we have deposits that stay pending for 24-48 hours before completed

You could be making withdraws Thursday, Friday , and Saturday and Than on Sunday your account gets limited and all those withdraws get reversed and now you have $3K in a limited PayPal

I always withdraw and only leave enough to cover fees, this passed DECEMBER this exact scenario happened and I was making withdraws and they all were reversed and had $3K held in one account

I first received the 180 day limitation and the next day it luckily changed to 45 days so by the end of January I was able to withdraw

Re: I hate PayPal sooo much
 

Blast email them and usually get it within 45 days. Don't knock it till you try it. i DID THIS FOR ABOUT 5 ACCOUNTS ALL FUNDS RELEASED EARLY
