Do NOT use Opera Mini!
I am new (to this site), but being doing ebay since 1998.
I've been supsended so many times, I can't see straight...LOL
I just discovered something the other day. I got a random Paypal "Limited Access" email. I couldn't withdraw or make payments. They said it was due to SUSPICIOUS access to my Paypal account.
After doing some Google searching, I figured out what happened.
I had been out of town and accessed my Paypal account via my cell phone web browser.
My phone is a Pantech Slate and I HATE the web browser that comes automatically with it, so I had installed Opera "Mini" a while back.
DO NOT USE OPERA MINI to access your Paypal account via the Paypal website.
Apparently Opera Mini uses servers in NORWAY!
I got it cleaned up fairly quick (24 Hours), but was in a panic, due to the fact that I had just sold a $1,250 item and was awaiting payment!
Just thought ya'll might want to know.... BE CAREFUL accessing the website via a Mobile Phone!!
From now on if I need to check my balance, I just use the Paypal feature of texting "BAL" to Paypal, and it replies with my balance. Quick and easy way to check your balance...
