Hi, I opened a Paypal account 4 days ago and I've not used it yet for any transactions. I came to use it for the first time this evening and it's been closed by Paypal for me been in violation of their terms. Anyone any ideas why they would close my account because I'm confused.

Have you opened a PayPal account before that was also banned? Or have family member/associate who owes money to PayPal whose account is also limited? Are using similar financial info as a banned account? Could be some false positive/misunderstanding with paypal security model.

I've not had a Paypal account before. My wife has one for personal use, but to my knowledge she uses it occasionally to make small purchases online and doesn't owe money.
