Cashing out Multiple Limited Accts Question
 

I know it is not a good idea to link the same bank account to multiple Paypals to prevent linking.

This questions is, if you have a few accounts that were limited for the same site/reason, can you add the same (burned) bank account to each one to cash them out after 180 days? Or does Paypal's system prevent adding the same bank # to two accounts?

I've used the same CC# across a few accounts so I know they don't lock that down.. just wondered if anyone has tried this?

Its not just that its a bad idea, the system 9 times out of 10 wont let you

If the account is trash and you are just trying to pull your money out, I don't see why it would matter if you used a "burnt" bank account

To add the bank account on a limited account after 180 you need to call in and do so manually over he phone.
This in itself can prove problematic. Add to that a 'burnt' account which will be flagged as soon as you try to add it and the person on the other side of the phone will make sure you never see those locked funds.
Not worth the risk.

I have personally tried it. It tells you that this bank was used too many times with other paypal accounts. So it doesnt allow you to.
However I have had bank accounts opened about a year or so still opened that had been connected with a burned paypal account.

I tried using it on an already limited pp account to remove the funds after a 180 day hold and low and behold!! It added and I was able to withdraw my funds successfully to my bank account.

So apparently at some length of time, I do not know how long, paypal's system resets and lets you use it again as if it had never been used before. But that doesnt mean you could use it with a new account and not get it linked to a burnt account or limited. As far as recycling it just to get funds out of an already burnt limited pp account it works!
