Paypal payments held for 21 days OUTSIDE of Ebay

[triple filtered]

Recently opened a stealth account and took my first couple of payments but instantly got hit with a 21 day hold.

The last time this happened to me it was just with ebay sales so if this is the case now with all paypal payments (same as CCNow) surely this could see the last of accounts being limited?

Ive used CCNow for nearly 3 years now and have no faults with the set up whatsoever.

The only reason I use Paypal is because my couriers accept Paypal payments so its easier fo me to book deliveries.

Surely Paypal have no reason to limit accounts now if the payments have sat for 21 days without dispute?

Oh triple!

How can you say paypal AND reason in the same sentence?

The more users try to avoid systems paypal has in place, the more paypal change their tactics.

Only thing to be done is operate an account as well as possible. That's the pain of paypal

21 day hold is the least of your worries

21 day hold doesnt bother me as long as they dont limit the account.

ANd if theres a 21 day hold on the payments, why would they? Apart from if you have a lot of cash in the account then theyll limit it for 6 months to accrue the interest on it

as long as they release the money when u get positive feed back, then its ok

Dont understand your last paragraph

It means that if your account gets LIMITED/BANNED/SUSPENDED, you would only get your cash in 6 months.

Just make another Paypal account and personally send money from your current Paypal to your new one.
