Friends & family + sales - does F&F at to total i.e will it trigger paypal?
As the title states. I sell on ebay. Always staying below £2.5k per month per account as i find this is the number that can lead to paypals request for everything and more. I have another income forming that will be received as F&F. Do paypal view these as one i.e 2.5k + 2.5k = 5k and a limitation? or are they viewed separately by pp?
From my own experience paypal are less strict on F&F but never really pushed towards the limit. |

| Have you never been asked for docs i.e supplier, postage, id, proof of address, the name of your dear old aunts, cats, kittens, brothers, friend?
In the past any time I went over 2.5k I got requested and decline after providing everything. Some occasions I did get up to near £5k but they was eventually restricted.
I'm not on about the EU AML ID request the other guy is talking about. |

| Yeah thats not what the OP was asking. Ive been dealing with the EU limits since before you where out of school young chap.
He asked about his turnover per month, for apparently this mythical amount that triggers PP to ask for invoices etc. |

| I dont think anyone but the angry poster was talking about the EU limits.
Interesting to hear, how quickly did you hit these amounts since account creation? |

| WTF? How the heck was him mentioning the EU limits being "angry"? That was just some psychological projection on your part.
The only attitude in this thread came from you with your condescending "young chap" comment. |

| :pop2: Well that escalated quickly :pop2:
Some too quickly which obviously is the reason for being triggered. But others have been 2 years old gradually built up, I also think its the items and the value per sale play a factor.
Its been a while since i set off the red flags since i just stay below £2.5k and spread accounts. Now if an account makes it past first month its usually safe.
So again, you never get doc requests upto and over 5k? |

| Yes Ive never been asked for these docs on any account, one of which is in excess of 100k a year. But they took 2-3 years to get to that point.
Items always play a huge factor in PP limitations.
Maybe an added advantage is I pay my supplier with those accounts, so PP can see where the money is going, and that company is the supplier of what I sell.
However I have just touched wood for a long period of time :) |

| Yes you made a good call on that as potetially what an issue could be.
Max item is £120, but generally most sales are around £25-30, what are yours like? |

| That is probably it. £120 is a lower end for me. £200-250 typically. |

| Ah good call, interesting to know if I ever choose to branch out. Theres obviously a lot of financial risk in a few transactions for £250 for PayPal. |
