That limit needs shifting...

[Callidus]

Hi all,

I have my documents ready to send into PP if they cannot verify the name and address to the electoral role... is this the same quick process as when sending them to eBay someone just checks the name and DOB that match up and done with it ?

Also how long does it take for them to usually review the documents?

Thanks

[meVebay]

Depends. Had some uploaded and limits lifted 15 minutes later (at 12.30am)

And some sent Monday morning take until Thursday. 72 hours a maximum.

Good luck!

WRONG, was taking 5 BUSINESS days in the run up to christmas, i had 2 accounts verified but painful waiting....

Well this is what happened to me.

Others ight have had different results

[Ebayorbust]

There's no right or wrong answer for this. It can take anything from 15 minutes to nearly a week. It all depends how busy they are.

Send the docs in and stop faffing.

I agree with Ebayorbust, you need to send the documents and wait as long as it takes pp to review. Yes, waiting is painful, but actually there is no other option.
Good Luck

What a friendly response! Actually, I had one lifted just before Christmas and it was done almost immediately.

Not been on here for a while, just thought I'd pop by to see if there are any new developments .........

Happy New Year folks

Yes, keep checking too, I was waiting and I didnt realise that they were waiting for me to resubmit another utility bill, they didnt like the first one I uploaded as it showed my name as an initial then surname, when you supply your docs remember to create your utility bill so that it displays your name in full as it appears on your stealth paypal account. Once I supplied them with this new utility bill it only took another day and then they removed my £1900 annual limit! Whoopee!!

Sent mine this morning praying... theyll prob ask me for newer statement though

[Callidus]

All done

Hi all,

I uploaded the necessary documents to have my limits removed however this is the second time they have come back invalid and I dont know why..

Other accounts are fine...

Do you have to have the photo showing or are you able to black it out as I know there is something where PAYPAL say that sensitive data can be screened out e.g. signature?

Not sure whether to upload again or what.

THanks

[Ebayorbust]

If it comes back, they usually indicate what might be wrong.

Maybe you have blacked out so much information that they are getting suspicious?

Is the full doc visible? ie corners not chopped off etc. I had to resend a DL once as I had cropped the jpeg slightly too much and trimmed one corner - resent with no issue.

You could keep sending the doc again and again. You may get lucky but it's not advisable.

Why not email them and ask what the problem actually is?

[GTB]

exactly,you should not be covering photo up man

or any other info TBF

they want to verify you not end up wondering about you

do them properly,dont hide any info,at all

no need to do that

its only a driving license,if it was your credit card statement i could understand

[ssam]

my case I send the documents once it uploaded I just call them, if everything is OK, they lift the limitation

[Callidus]

gtb - many thanks for your help earlier on

ebayorbust - Well the only reason i blanked out the PHOTO and signature was because I thought I read you can do that or PP tell you to do that?

I have emailed them but got no response might even call (know how to keep calm under false pretences)

Corners are not chopped off or anything I scanned in then uploaded.. or is it best to fax them in ?

[GTB]

no problem bro

so it must be because you blanked some info out

no need for it bro honestly

always happy to advise mate

[GreenBean]

Fax is preferable.

Used be you could blackout part of the numbers. Never the photo 'cos they want to see 'you' are 'you :D

[Callidus]

Brilliant help! Will be resending again tonight will let you know how it goes

[GTB]

good luck bro

hope you get it sorted,nowt worse than this man

it ul be reet lad
