Hi,

My account  was blocked on the month of September 2020. I was not able to withdraw the amount from my paypal account to my bank account. I was told that it will be blocked until 180 days after which I will receive an email from paypal regarding withdraw information. But I think its almost 180 days, and I have not yet received my amount. Could you please help

If you have been told your Paypal account has been permanently limited then Paypal tends to hold any funds for 180 days. This is the same time frame that buyers have to open Paypal disputes.

If no disputes are opened in 180 days then normally you are allowed to withdraw the funds. That is as long as you are over 18, the account is in your legal name and registered in the country where you reside.

Sometimes they confiscate funds under this policy.

Paypal also may request further documentation from you before you can withdraw those funds.
