I have been using PayPal under the age of 18 but now I have to complete my account limits but I can't complete them with my date of birth. I cant do anything with the money I currently have in my account at the moment. What do I do.

Paypal does not allow account holders under the age of 18.
PayPal asks for a birth date when you register so whilst you can make a PayPal account with false information the account will need to be verified to accept funds into your balance or lift any limits.
As you would be unable to verify your account it would be locked for further use.
Minors can’t enter legal contracts so you won’t have any recourse to get your money back.

You would have to wait until you were 18 and then request customer services to allow you to open another paypal account and transfer the funds over for you from the old underage limited one.
