Good news from paypal
 

Just thought I would share my good news...had an email from paypal, they are no longer holding my funds...I did not even ask them..so was well chuffed..

Good. I had this on 2 different accounts the other day also.

They said that the 21 day holds are not continuing. However be aware that they constantly review and determine if the holds will stay or go. It can come back, but I am enjoying it while it lasts.

Exactly - well done.

PayPal and good news in the same sentence, WOW Wonders never cease :clap:

How long did you have the accounts for before they decided to lift the holds?

Or is in on all accounts where they are not holding funds any more?

Hi, I opened the account in september...was totally shocked to be honest with you..

Usually 3 months after your first sale on eby or 100 feedbacks but account must be good standing.

thats why on some account i have in reserve i sold a few things untill i see 21 day hold in pp, then when its time to use for real selling, no limits :D

Im hoping I will past the 1900 limit easy...I have already varified everything..dl, bank statement..so not sure if they will for them again, I have looked on my paypal, and it does not say if I have any limits, so not sure what will happen..

you should be good.

Hope so..lol..this has been a long time coming for me...do they ask for invoices on premier accounts...as my ebay is a business, but paypal is premier...thank you

Yes they can.

Just keep your nose clean and will be fine.

Hope you have or are making other accounts now for later use.

GUD Luk

I have another one, that I have used a couple of times...

thank you..

well if i was you i would keep it alive, log in from time to time, browse around even buy and sell a thing or two

i would try and create at least a couple more.

Paypal will add the 21-day hold back in a heart beat...

Potential is there but if the account 'behaves', the holds tend to stay away.:clap:

I tend to like the holds actually, makes it easier to manage, without the holds it's to easy to take out too much without leaving enough to cover fees and refunds which can cause the account to go down alot faster and also taking too much out too soon can also cause paypal to get limited, once the holds clear you're in much safer position to start withdrawing funds.

Should not happen if you keep them moderately active.

I had the holds and then they were removed. However I've just received an email saying they will be holding them again!

They really make selling in a high-risk category very, very difficult.

I wonder why?

I cannot understand why they would do that - can you?

I know why, you heathens :p

I was just voicing my displeasure that some common sense is not used when applying these holds. Ah well, it's only a mild inconvenience anyway.
