Account limitations 180 days #limitations #180days

[Trent0816]

I have not been able to touch my money for over four months now. I have $330 on PayPal that I could not use due to having account limitations. Please if anyone has and tips or ways I can get my money before the 180 day mark please help me. My rent is due tomorrow and im 220$ short!

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 so sadly they won't release it earlier for you.

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.
