I wouldn't worry about it.
Mine has been at 80% for years as i don't want their silly app.
I have no problems selling and buying.

Hi everyone,
As kernowlass mentioned, the account will usually work normally even if the steps are under 100% complete. However it does matter which steps have been completed.
You can see what limits are on your account by clicking the "See how much you can send with PayPal" towards the lower left corner of the Summary page.
Or log into your account and use this link: https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_lift-limits
The most common way to become Verified is to link and confirm a bank account. For some countries, the account can only be Verified by linking and confirming a card.
I suggest contacting support directly so we can investigate and locate any other accounts that may be causing the problem. https://www.paypal.com/help
I hope this helps! 🙂
