Any having paypal issues ???
 

Hi anyone having major paypal issues today ??

10 paypals down in a few hours

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

As in limited?

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

yes all limited, my main account even says cant be appealed

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

sounds like you got linked?

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

different users and different vpns so dont think thats it, hence asking if anyone else has had issues

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

as in different user ids

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

do you send payments between the accounts at all??

or send any gift payments?

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

Sounds a lot more like linking to me

How did you cash out and what VPN did you use?

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

some used as buying with entropay

all used different banks

i dont send payments between accounts

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

So these are buyers account or sellers account?

Did they all have their own bank account added?

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

i use world vpn as they give dedicated fresh ip

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

3 buyer accounts and 5 seller accounts went down, buyer accounts have no banks attached

main account has all limits removed, other accounts have not had this

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

For $6.99 a month I would be surprised if that IP was totally fresh and never used before

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

it is not 6.99 for the dedicated fresh vpn

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

do you have any flash things installed on your pc?

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

well i have not ever removed flash but i dont use computer for anything else, just ebay and amazon

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

just wondering if anyone else is having paypal issues

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

you would see it on the forum if they were?

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

I have had no issues myself. It really sounds like something is linking you

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

what can i do about my main paypal ? can i open another and use it on ebay, with same details as original one ?

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

someone had mentioned i can open a paypal with the business name of my ebay id and it will work this way

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

For about a week it would work

Then it would also get limited

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

are you saying the scary fact that this ebay with 16,000 different items is now gone ?

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

can i not change the ebay paypal address to another paypal ?

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

You can try as a last resort, but as James said the new Paypal would most likely become limited after a short while. I hate to say it, but it sounds like you've lost your main account.

You've got nothing to lose at this point. Give it a shot.

To answer your question, I have not had any problems with paypal.

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

OP, do you use software that monitors your IP and drops the connection if the VPN drops?

If you don't then it could be your VPN has failed and as a result all your accounts have been linked.

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

i have a kill switch on my vpn so everything closes if connection fails. I do on my main account and this is the one that i am most annoyed about as it is fully looked after

Really distraght as i cant afford this

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

Afraid the answer wont change

You can link in a new PayPal to the old eBay but after a few weeks, maybe a month or 2, it would get limited. That is just the way it is I am afraid, PayPal are very used to people trying that so they are good at linking them

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

the main one is limited without appeal, the others are requesting docs, is it worth doing the docs ? or are they asking for docs just for the sake of it ?

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

They may well be

It may be worth doing it for one account and seeing what happens.

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

why would they ask for docs for the sake of it ??

this is such a pain

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

Most likely just an automated request.

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

Please don't take this the wrong way but you've been a member on here for just 15 days. In that time you have opened up 10+ stealth accounts and linked a whole lot of them.

It looks on the face of it that you have jumped into the whole stealth thing a bit too quickly without fully understanding all the ins and outs.

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

Just happens

Chances are you have linked all of them and they are asking for docs for the sake of it.

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

hi ebayorbust, i understand what you mean, but some of these accounts have been running for over a year.

Just because i hadnt registered or contributed i still read and knew what to do (apart from whatever has happened today)

no hard feelings

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

just another curveball, what about people who open open there pc in costa or internet cafes where accounts have been active by many people, surely they are still entitled to use ebay after provided the correct documentation

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

That generally does not lead to a limitation. Its just a very soft one off link.

By the sounds of it PayPal are pretty sure that all of your accounts are run by the same person so you have been hit with a much harder limitation

Try sending them docs, but I would only try with 1 account just to see what happens

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

its strange that none of the ebay accounts are linked mind you

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

They will be. Just nothing has come of it.

Paypal are the ones that get jumpy if they see unusual account activity like yours.

Re: Any having paypal issues ???
 

have not had ebay limited for many years, its always issue with paypal
