    This forum isn't really a place for begging for money.

    Do you not have any credit cards?

    Wow. A member for two weeks, and he's asking to borrow $2000?

    Well, folks, while you consider his request, it should be mentioned that there have been over a dozen accounts created using this fellow's dedicated server IP.

      Another helpful post, Paul, although I would have never sent him all that money.

      Paul,

      I think you guys are being unduly harsh on OP.

      I will be willing to loan him that $2000, as soon as that Nigerian prince sends me the $3 Million that he owes me for helping him to reopen his bank account.

        Hahaha, I'll lend him the $2000 too, just waiting on the big chunk of change that was promised to me by one of Gaddafi's generals.

        Update: Glad the OP is getting his money right. I haven't used them myself, but look into ccnow payment processor. They process credit cards as well as paypal.

    In many cases, calling paypal up can really help. I've seen cases where People have had their paypal opened back up within 24 hours of calling and explaining the situation.

    Often Paypal Closes accounts, not due to violations, but as a precaution. (Read: to cover their own hindsides). If the latter is the case, a phonecall could do wonders as far as getting your funds released.

      No, I think you misunderstood what he meant. He was not referring to monies you earn from selling the service you are providing. He is talking about the sites you sell in your signature. You claim they make $1,000 per month using things such as Clickbank and Amazon which you do not send their commissions via Paypal. So why don't you have some of those sites built for yourself and if you don't, then why don't you build a few of those sites. If they make the $1,000 per month you claim then you'll be fine by the end of the month.

        This ^^

        My point is that you claim to have a $1000/month autopilot system and yet here you are, asking WF to lend you $2000.

        Something doesn't add up...

    Since your original thread was locked, was your paypal account an actual business account or a personal one?

    After my 2 limited account incidents, I immediately upgraded to a business account.

    I suggest you get off your butt and get out of the house and offer yard/cleanup/housecleaning/dog walking/handy man services pronto if you expect to get that rent paid.

    I seriously doubt anyone here will lend you the money or give you the money so this problem is yours to solve.

      Thanks! I have been out all day today walking my butt off trying to sell some websites offline for super low prices.

      I have come up with half the money for my rent and hope to get the rest by the end of the week

    The best solution you have is to contact Paypal customer support and explain your situation. Ask them why they close your account. Mostly, they will give prompt answers to problems like this.

    One thing you have to watch on your PayPal account is the estimated monthly income you originally posted. If you are making more than that estimate, make sure you edit that estimate higher.

    I talk to PayPal almost every week so I'm known by many people at PayPal. Call PayPal and talk to them.

    I have software that is in beta right now that uses PayPal's Adaptive API and because of my contact on a regular basis with PayPal the reviewers that approve API Application IDs now when my software is being use and they don't even have to test the software but just review the sales letters to make sure they don't violate an of PayPal's rules.

    So approval comes in just 24 hours.

    Talking to PayPal has made it extremely easy for people to get API approval for people who will be buying my software.

    Talking and asking questions will do miracles for you with PayPal.

    Best regards,

      Hi Steve,

      This may have been a reason also as I signed up with them years ago and can't remember what the business income was set to the lowest probably and has increased over the years

    I've had one of my Paypal accounts limited a few years ago for no good reason and I had to wait 180 days to withdraw my money. If I recall correctly, they asked me to send them some invoices (which i didn't have) for several transactions.

  • Sorry this happened to you. Why were you banned? And you really only have 2000 dollars in your possession? Or that you did? No day job or money saved up? And if you have an income stream, you should be able to recover.

      Yes lesson learned. Its the end of the month so all the rest of the money had already gone on bills so it was money that was depended on.

      I will definatly put money aside for the future and yes my income stream comes in every month but unfortunatly cheques take a long time to clear and be sent so yes I will recover but it will take some time.

    FitMarketer,

    I can't remember who said this but there was a post on the forum a while back where a Warrior had their Paypal account closed for what seemed like a trivial reason. This person got on the phone with their state Attorney General office and someone from that office got involved and Paypal reopened their account.

    This was at least a year ago but you might search some old threads for advice but it couldn't hurt to make a phone call.

          Your situation is so sad and I don't think it's so unusual that you're asking for money, Loan or otherwise. There are many people and legitimate organizations that ask for and receive millions for causes, education, missions, etc. everyday. Perhaps it was just the way that you posed it that people seem so offended by.

          Are you active in a church or any local group that knows you that could help you maybe?

          It may be too small an amount for a factoring broker but perhaps someone you know could buy your impending receivables for a reasonable discount that you could live with.

          Good luck to you and best wishes.

    I just saw your response to me. That thread won't help you because the banking laws are so different in each state in the US so it wouldn't help someone from Europe. It is a terrible thing to be at the mercy of Paypal. Did you let JVZoo know what Paypal told you?

    @Nisip, Paul is a mod. He has access to all kinds of stuff that you & me don't.

    To the OP, I've never heard of someone's account being closed simply for using JVZoo before. I used JVZoo for a looong time & didn't have any of the problems you're describing.

    Might want to speak with a supervisor & double check, because there is more to the story than simply using JVZoo... lol

      The first rep didn't tell me what the reason was and after a long chat with second rep she let it slip that it had to do with an affiliate payment that was coming and going from the account.

      Only thing I have used is JVzoo so i'm assuming it was that but again they were very vauge

        Yeah.

        Add to it the claim that he's only ever had this one account. Theoretically possible, but so statistically improbable that it's very safe to bet against it being true.

        It would be a lot more plausible if it were a dial-up IP from Singapore. We run into massive overlap there. But 14 accounts from a single IP on a dedicated server? Unlikely.

        Couldn't guess about the rest of the story, but I tend to discount anything from anonymous new members anyway.

          Hi Paul,

          I think the problem may be that when I am travelling I use a ip blocking software so I can watch local tv channels which won't work in the countries I am visiting.

          Seems the software is turned on automatically on my PC

          The site is Hide My IP Address & Browse Anonymously | Hide IP Address Here

          The IP it seems to be showing is 209.239.114.234

          Maybe people have used this in the past to open accounts?

          I am sorry for any mix up this has caused. This genuinly is my first Warrior Forum account

            Ummm... This is funny. That is actually not the IP address I was referring to, with all the "extra" accounts linked to it.

            When are people going to figure out that "no name, using proxies" isn't a credible place to ask favors from?

    I can lend you $2,000. But it would be easier for everyone if I sent you a check for $4,000 and you sent me $2,000 in cash.

    this is why i hate doing business with paypal. they get their noses in everyone's business and they seem to think they can keep people's money frozen for any reason. not only do they stick their nose in your business, they want to tell you how to run your business. it's utterly ridiculous. choose another processing method for your business. it's ok to keep your account open for personal use though.

    i know it's tough that this happened and where you have to provide for your family at the same time. keep your head up. this was a learning experience. it was bound to happen sooner or later....

    What would you use as an alternative?

    The majority of my income comes from PP so looking for a processor that accepts PP
    Sorry to hear about this...other than Paypal I use Payza as others here have already suggested.

    If there's nothing more to do, then wait. Good for you that you only have to wait for 30 days. Others wait for 180 days. Well, I did. I got my money last march.

    i'd call paypal unless you are afraid because you were doing some shady stuff. i think ppl would definitely give money. that's just a human thing for some.

      I'm one of the moderators, if that's what you're asking.

      In this forum, 'admin' is a specific person, and I ain't him.

    That explains it Paul, figured you must have been a Moderator least, I would have thought that title would be under you under your Username so members would know?

    I was looking at purchasing one of his offers, I suppose it would be safer to buy from more experienced members within the forum rather than someone new, and with possibly questionable credentials. if that's the term to use!!

      Most of us regulars do know Paul tends to oversee things here. But, on the other hand, everyone here plays a part in moderation. There is so much going on here that no one person could do it all. Even a small team would have issues.

    Anyway, just in case I am in a situation like this, can I call Paypal via Skype credits? Coz' I feel like in the next 2-3 months, my monthly average would be a bit higher than before.

    Hey dude, there were way to many responses to read them all right now. But I had this same problem. Paypal closed me up, and took my money. I didnt care but I still needed to use paypal!

    Just open another email account. Call your bank and change the billing address to a public mailbox. Open a free checking account (most banks you can do it online, no charge) and put 5 bucks in it. Thats all you need. You can verify your account using the credit card, and you can setup withdrawals to your new checking account. DONT use any of the same info- gotta be new address, new cc num, new email, and new checking acct num. Don't recall them asking for my phone.

    There are a number of Merchant Accounts that will shut you down. Unfortunately, some of the merchant accounts have to much power. If they feel you are receiving too many chargebacks your account will be flagged and shut down. If they feel you are a risk that may hold some of your funds back. If you have a web-site business, it's always a good idea to have several merchant accounts. Float your payments between accounts - don't put all of your eggs in one basket.

    I am using Paypal for quite a few years, I have never faced any issue with them.

    In my opinion, Paypal always has a valid reason to close an account.

      Not always. A few years back I was selling a laptop to someone, and when he didn't get it as fast as he demanded, he filed a dispute with PayPal, who immediately locked my account. The problem was PayPal had absolutely no part of the laptop sale; there was no money being transacted through them. But the buyer decided to screw me via PayPal. It took a month to convince PP that they were messing around where they didn't belong.
