Out of the blue Paypal says they are closing my account for something I did not do and holding my money (4000) dollars for 180 days. This is so rotten ,crooked and unfair that it amounts to theft ! How can they hold my money like this ? Will I ever get it back ? I am going to the media to report this ! 

I just saw a news article where Paypal has done this many times before to people. This is so wrong !

When PayPal ends their relationship with you, the 180 days to withdraw is part of the procedure. This is to cover any disputes that might be filed on your most recently received payment transaction(s). You can contact customer service to see if they can release the funds for withdraw sooner or part of it sooner and the rest later, no guarantees though:

 

Log on, click HELP on top menu, scroll down to click CONTACT US, and then scroll down to click CALL US.
