I just got limited please help

[wkang87]

I recently withdrew <$500 not all at the same time but I got an email today saying it was limited.

I did transfer few times funds from other stealth account's paypal. I'm wondering if this was what drew them the attention.

They are saying I'll be able to withdraw the money in 180 days.

Should I call paypal and just provide them if they ask any documentation?

so they did not ask for docs? how much is left in the account?

We recently noticed an issue with your account.

What's the problem?

We recently noticed a pattern of account activity that, in our experience,
is usually high risk. For more information, see Restricted Activities

Because of this issue, your account has been permanently limited. We
understand this may be frustrating and inconvenient but you'll still be
able to see your transaction history for a limited time.

You'll be able to withdraw money from your account within 180 days. We'll
email you when it's available. We just want to make sure that you have
money in your account to cover any payment reversals.


this is what they said. I don't know if this means I have to provide documents

You are banned from PayPal forever, they don't need to see any of the documents.

Time to create another stealth account.

Sound like it was related to what you were selling.

Check that the accounts you were sending money from are still operational.

one of them is and the other one is fine. the stealth that was limited fortunately had 0 balance, the other stealth that I've also sent money with is fine up and running smoothly. The account that received money from stealth is also down.

does this mean i won't be able to even withdraw after 180 days? or should I call them?

You can try to call but in reality they probably wont budge. Like others have said, its time to get building more accounts and just use this as a learning experience.

So i should just wait the 180 days and forget about this acct right?

What would have caused it? Do you think it was due to transferring money from stealth paypal? I used this one to transfer to my BA the funds and have my stealth send funds to this paypal to withdraw those funds to my BA as well.

Also, say 180days have passed could i withdraw it to the same BA?

[wkang87]

Also I noticed they removed my BA, it's no longer linked. What would happen after 180days? Can I still add the same BA I used for the limited account and withdraw the funds to there?

Sometimes they make you send in a bank statement to add a bank to a limited account, it just depends. In this situation I have added a real address and requested a check. I deposit it via mobile into a business checking and haven't had problems yet with name mismatching on the check.

What would happen if I transfer the remainder fund to another paypal account ? can I even do that?

[wkang87]

I dont know , im wondering if its possible so I can transfer to one of my stealth paypal and withdraw from there

You can't withdraw nor transfer once the PayPal is limited. Best bet is wait 180 days and withdraw then. It is now a wait game. Just don't forget about that account by keeping it highlighted for a 6 months check.

Will i be able to add the same BA that i used before it got limited? They automatically removed my BA

[wkang87]

I won't be able to purchase anything with it either right?

Correct - if limited, the account cannot withdraw or use the funds for purchases
