paypal limited
 

Hi guys,

I was using a stealth account which was created December 2014 with about 14 feedbacks. I then listed my stock on a 30 day list and all was going fine. 10 days later my listing got removed. My account had the 21 day hold on every item I sold so like a idiot I let the funds build up to around £1400 :nono:(school boy error I know). I immediately went to withdraw my cash from PayPal. When I withdrew the funds I got the usual message the funds will be with you within 24 hours.

I then received an email to state the transaction had been reversed and my account was now limited. PayPal was fully verified, I was asked to provide the usual photo ID, proof of address, proof of postage, proof of supplier by November 1 2015. All this info I could provide. The final check I had to do which I have not come across was to confirm the card that was linked on my PayPal had to match the address I used. Of course being a stealth this was impossible so I left it as that and thought to wait the 180 days. 18 days later I received another email to advise they have limited my account and asked me to confirm my back card. Has this happened to anyone else?

It suspicisous activity, because you tried to withdraw funds too fast..
You need to wait at least 48hours before moving funds...

Call them and say you no longer have the card as it has been 6 months

Re: paypal limited
 

my account was only limited last month. Would it be best to wait the 6 months for the withdrawal email or will this not happen until I confirm the card?

Re: paypal limited
 

Say the card was lost, and you now have another one.

Yap, it shouldn't be a big issue, you got to get new card and have details ready when you next time call paypal.

Issues like this easily gets resolved if you call PayPal.

I think I may have not made myself clear in my earlier post or I'm not understanding what i need to do. My account is limited and I need to provide photo ID, proof of address, proof of invoice and to confirm my card. I can provide everything they are asking for except for me to confirm my bank card. That is registered under my own address not the stealth. Any help will be greatly appreciated folks

This is just PayPals attempt to make you feel like you a have a chance. Seldom ever will they unlimit your account even if you provide them everything.

You'll have to wait out the 180 days and hope that when it comes to release time they dont ask for more documents.

There really is not much else you can do. We've ll been there, when I first went Stealth I let £16K buuild up in there before it got limited, that was a nerve wracking six months!

In your email or opening screen from PP, did it say 'this cannt be appealed against' in black bold writing at the bottom?
