PayPal refusing money after waiting 180 days?!

[usaamah426]

Hi guys, have any of you been refused your money after waiting 180 days? I have read somewhere that PayPal can reject the docs they ask for after the 180 day wait if they even think that the docs submitted are not valid. I have £2K in one of my accounts that is due to be released on August 10th. Hope this doesn't happen to me :(

Yep ive had this.

Ive received the emails saying "your funds are available to withdraw" and when you check the resolution centre under the actions of what you can and cannot do while limited, the withdraw option is still blocked and thats when you have to call paypal to get them to remove the block.

Okay but have you ever been declined your money?

this happened to me 2-3 days ago after getting the "your funds are eligible for withdraw" email

logged in to withdraw and the funds had been moved to pending, quick call to paypal and they said can be 24 hours before their "technicians" fix the problem, to be fair the them it was done in about an hour and I withdrew funds no prob (THIS IS ON AN ACCOUNT WITH DOCS BEING REJECTED)

Depends on the rep you get.
Some request docs again and if they fail again they make you wait another 180 days... Damn cycle.

Wow really? How does that even make sense! They should allowe you to withdraw after you have had to wait for a whole 180 days anyways

its just a way to let them get to keep your money

[usaamah426]

Surely this is against the law?��

[Bunneh]

i know its not ethical but they will blame it on the foo foo id.
So it allows them to keep the money.

Discourages you from doing it again. Basically, they dont want you as a customer and make sure the experience is painful.
