getting my money back after 3 years

[MikRik]

So, on my stealth account, 3 years of ID being rejected, over 1000 emails later, CSSF letters back n forth, threats of court i have eventually got my 4k back from paypal.

the *******s.

I learned my lesson the hard way, and since i got limited 4 years ago, i never leave any money in paypal i cant afford to lose.

Thank God for Shopify now.

Congrats on the effort and success MikRik - 3 years wow...

It must have been quite a journey. I'm glad you stayed put.
You may tell us how you managed it.

Looks like if you make a lot of noise that's when they fold. Somebody else also bombarded them with threats, letters, constant emails etc to get their money released.

Congrats btw.

How are you selling on shopify ? facebook / instagram ads ?

Yea guys, it was a long affair.

They banned me for selling xbox live cards, Microsoft windows keys and PSN gift cards.
They banned me for brand risk and i appealed and won and later that day they banned me again for high risk.

Ill be able to write a detailed report of how i got my money back in a few weeks when i get home from work, hopefully it might help those with money trapped in stealth accounts.

Yes i now sell on facebook and shopify and accept money using shopify, world pay and 2Checkout and use REVOLUT as my bank accounts.

(on a side note, on another stealth account i had banned, i was able to add a revolut card to file and withdraw from paypal to revolut.

Looks like the best route for what you sell rather than ebay!

Those of you fortunate enough to be selling items that work outside of ebay are lucky. Some of us are stuck with their platform.
