HELP Paypal has limited my account!!

15 replies
I just logged onto my email and got a notification that my PP account has been limited

They need proof of sales invoices, supplier info, and tracking IDS

Problem is all my sales come from Online website sales

I have uploaded proof from JV Zoo on my sales

Screenshots from Flippa

Supplier screenshots such as suppliers I used like Hostgator and godaddy

Is this enough????


Worst thing is they have reversed the withdrawl I made Sunday of over $2000!

Now I cannot withdraw

What should I do?

    This is a well known case, they do it all the time after you get over a certain limit.

    What you need to do is just send them your ID copy. Just contact the support, you will be fine again in 24 hours.

    Good luck !

    hello, call them right now and tell them you sent them the info, there generally pretty nice over the phone, my paypal debit card gets limited all the time I just call them and they lift the limit.

    they just want to know that you are the one using the paypal account, especially if you haven't had many transactions before that.

    this happened to me before, so I called them up and they fixed it right there.

  • Step one: Breathe....in.... and out.....

    Step two: relax and know that this is not isolated and most marketers who do any significant transactions via Paypal will have come across this.

    Step three: You have already submitted some material, so go into your account, find the appropriate phone number to call and...

    Step 4: Talk to a real person and let them know you are co-operating and let them know you are also a real and legit person doing legit transactions etc, and try to work with them to get your issue resolved a.s.a.p.

    This has happened two times to me already and a simple phone call will solve everything.

    Thanks for all the advice trying to stay calm and breathe but

    The support is already closed for today

    And that $2000 I was withdrawing on Sunday that they reversed was my rent that is due TODAY!

    How long does it normally take to sort out after a phone call?

      Ah yes, the dreaded "Rent Due - Money Frozen Scenario".

      Looks like their hours are: 4:00 AM to 10:00 PM Pacific Time Monday through Friday, so depending on how that translates into your timezone, all you can really do is set your alarm and contact them first thing in the morning.

      Regarding how long it would take to fix, would depend on any outstanding issues, docs etc. Technically, if you escalate it to the right person, they can simply press a button and your funds are free to use. Thus you will have to call and see how things progress.

    Dont worry about money. In case if they suspened your account you can withdraw your money after 6 month.

    What does this mean? Did PayPal stop a withdrawal in progress, or did PayPal reach into your bank account and transfer $2000 back to PayPal?

    I've seen both happen. The former - not much you can do but complain to PayPal. The latter - I'd get a local attorney to contact the PayPal entity for your country, as well as your bank, regarding theft and permitting an unauthorized withdrawal.

      I don't think the OP should antagonize Paypal customer service by threatening legal action when his rent is due asap!

      He just needs to ask them who to speak with to expedite his case because he needs this money for rent and doesn't want to be on the street.

    Well they have frozen the account and are going to close it!

    With my $2000 in it

    I sent all the documents last night and then when I called this morning they said that the account was now frozen and will be closed for suspicious activity

    Looks like I will be kicked out of my house!! I am now late and have no idea where I am going to get $2000 so quick in


    What do I do???
