I have been tod to be wary of adding a large amount of money to my PP account all at once, otherwise I face the risk of having my account frozen. So how big can my installments be, and how long do I have to wait inbetween installments?
Thanks

The limit on a single transaction is $10,000. If you're doing a one add of $790, assuming your account is verified and no limits, it should not be an issue.

My account status is Verified, and there is no 'lift limits' link next to it. I am assuming that that means that there are no limits on my account? I am just not sure; I have been told by someone that works for Paypal to first transfer $100, then $150, then $250, because smal transfers will 'work in my favor,' whatever that is supposed to mean.
I need a garuantee that transfering this $750 all at once isn't going to come back to bite me. The money that goes through my paypal account is the only source of income that I get. I cannot afford for my account to get frozen. I have heard of people's accounts being limited for what Paypal thinks is suspicious activity, when it actually isn't.
To play it safe, I think I will transfer the money bit by bit.
Thanks for your answer 🙂

I am pretty scared to use Paypal, to be honest. I have heard so many horror stories. I literally cannot afford for my account to be limited, and there WILL be an unsual spike in how much money will be going into my Paypal account soon, especially compared to how much I was earning before. I understand that a spike in payment volumeis one of the high-risk signs on Paypal, and then to investigate, they proceed to limit or freeze your account, whether you are verified and free or all limits or not.
I can't have this hapening.
My transaction history shows that I have been paid small amounts. The sudden spike is perhaps goint to result in my account being reviewed, and I hope to God that they leave my account alone, as I am completely verified.
Do I have to phone customer suport to talk to someone who works for Paypal about this to let them know that nothing suspicious is going on, and that a simple increase in my earnings is happening?
