Pending Paypal Balance Question
 

I have a low limit ebay/paypal account i use on my phone. It's less than 60 days old so it's still going through the "pending" payments process but every other time i sell something of approximate equal value ~$400 in the same category it immediately makes the funds available to me. Anyone know why / what's going on? Sure wish i could get the other half available immediately too!

Paypals system seems really screwy lately.

I have an account that has holds, but its made the last 10 or so payments available right away.

I dont question it, and just move my money before they change their minds :)

Re: Pending Paypal Balance Question
 

Is your account newer than 90 days too? or are they putting holds on an account that should be past the hold phase for you?

Re: Pending Paypal Balance Question
 

This account is approximately 43 days old.

Thanks for the info. I wonder if it's because i'm on a cell phone and my IP changes every time i connect, maybe something flagged it or I got connected to a bad one someone previously used or something, don't suppose you're using a cell phone or something that connects with a different IP like hot spots too?
