PayPal Limited Account - when can I get my $$
 

I just had my paypal account limited, it is asking for a bunch of documentation I cannot provide. Will I ever be able to withdraw the money out? I have had experiences with my ebay/paypal being shut down at the same time and having to wait the 180 days to withdraw money, but this does not say anything about how long the money is going to be on hold. I can't believe they can just keep the money forever, so does anyone know if the 180 day wait will apply in this case? Thank you for your help!

They don't keep it.
Even if nothing is said the 180 days start ticking away the moment the limitation hits.

yes 180 days is max that theyll hold your funds.

They won't permanently limited your account and hold the money for 180 days if you provide all the documentation they want on time, normally they will request photo ID, credit card statement, utility bill, and invoice, which can easily prepared. Let's say your account permanently limited and you are not involved in counterfeit or illegal activities, then they will let you withdraw the money in your account after 180 days.

In general, this is true

You are wrong. I am noticing you are making posts that are not entirely accurate. Please learn the facts better before making these types of blanket statments on the forum.

Paypal reserves the right to withhold releasing funds even after 180 days if it so decides.

Although the limitation countdown can start with the email, some accounts may in fact need to reply to paypal with either the required ID or advice they are not going to supply ID.

That must be considered for sellers with limitations.

It says if I don't reply by June 26 then further limitations will be imposed. I don't have the documents that they are asking for, but I don't want to tell them that. Is it best to just no respond and wait out the 180 days or just kiss the money goodbye?
