How can I get my money? (paypal blocked - no documents requested)
 

Hello,

Pay-pal account blocked, but very unusual, hoping I can get your advice.

• I had a stealth paypal account.
  
• Been selling small items (99p) for a few months.
  
• The account has recently become limited.
  
• I did not get an email from pay-pal, it just stopped accepting payments.
  
• Logged in and says limited, unable to appeal.
  
• There is nothing requesting documents in the resoloution centre.
  
• The account does not have a bank account linked as of yet. How can I get the money out?

Should I link a bank account? Will the 180 days become active themselves? I do hope you can help.

alot trapped?? true unusual, so worth adding a bank account or not.

Yes, I can't really afford to forget about it. (about £500 or so)

Does the 180 day thing usually apply? Will they let me take it out after 180 days? Surely they can't just keep the money.

'For reasons relating to the safe use of the PayPal service we need some more information about some of your recent eBay and PayPal activity.'
and below that
'This limitation cannot be appealed against.'

Resoloution centre doesnt ask for anything....

Really stuck here, what do I do? help please:)

give them a ring to see what they want and if you can get the cash out?

there are a few threads on this scenario where they do not let money out, you will need to search, and alot more is trapped, but it is unusual, I agree call them.

They usually do allow money out at 180.

Similar scenario but the user is Canadian.

Usually will allow money in 180 days. I dont think UK posts a check so you HAVE to add bank account to withdraw. Easy to get.

Had the same exact experience earlier and it was released after 180 days

If there are no steps to remove it then it's a permanent limitation.

Don't understand.Generally if account limited,it should have option to remove limit.

Stop posting useless spam.

In order not to waste the bank account - you can wait 180 days and then link.

@makavi94, your last post is showing that you dont seem to understand that permanent limitations will NOT have steps to unblock the account. Read more.
