I can’t make any payments on my PayPal and I don’t know why I can’t send or buy anything online , I havnt got any email or anything
Hi @Edboi!
Welcome to our chat! I'm sorry to hear that there's recently been some trouble with using PayPal to send payments. 😞
Let's take a look at a few things.
Are you receiving any specific errors? If so, can you please provide the details of the error?
Is your PayPal account verified?
Are you travelling or accessing your account from a different location or device than normal?

Thanks for following up, @Edboi. I appreciate the details provided and I know how concerning situations like this can be.
At PayPal, our first priority is protecting our customers. We have an internal security model in place to detect possible problems with transactions - similar to banks and credit card companies. Each transaction that runs through our system is reviewed by this security model and from time to time we may catch false positives. It sounds like this might be happening with your transactions.
@FOR additional review of the situation and for security purposes, I would recommend that you reach out to customer support for help. Customer support can be reached by clicking "Help & Contact" on the PayPal website, @AskPayPal on Twitter or the PayPal Facebook page.

I already called and they said they couldn’t do anything , so I don’t know what to do , they said it was the system and they couldn’t do anything t fix it ...
Ah, I'm sorry to hear that @Edboi. 😞 There are instances where we may not be able to force a payment through. 😞
It may be beneficial to check with the recipients of your payments to ensure that all is well on their end. You may also try your payment again at a later date.
If the payment still won't go through after checking these or waiting a few days, it's possible you may need to work with your recipients to send the payments outside of PayPal. I'm terribly sorry about the inconvenience.

The money in my balance and it’s $200 there no way ima be never able to use it 😞 I really need my money , $200 is a lot to me and it’s just sitting there and I can’t even use it there hasn’t to be something I can do
I'm glad you brought that up, @Edboi! I didn't know that the money was in your PayPal balance. If the money is in your PayPal balance and you're unable to use it for purchases or to send payments, you may withdraw the money to use outside of PayPal.
I hope this helps!
