Paypal Account Limited due to linked account!
 

Hi

On 5th May PP limited my account due to a linked account having a negative balance from 2008!

So like a good person I paid this as I was told it would release the limitation on the account. At the time I couldn't even receive payments, but I managed to get that changed once the debit card payment had been made.

I was told on Thurs/Fri that the payment would clear in 48 hours, so around Mon/Tues (today).

I have logged on this morning and the steps to remove limitation say complete, but the limitation still exists.

When I got into work I had a standard email from them (dated 8th May) saying due to security risks they were closing the PP account!!!

Now I am a regular on eBay selling items and I need my PP account on a daily basis and why they have said this I have no idea. The heading of the email was "appeal denied", but I have not made an appeal! Also, I was told the limitation would be lifted once the payment had been made.

Could this email be a spoof and am I worrying about something or nothing? I cannot ring them as their lines are currently closed?

Can anyone help, many thanks LL
