You can't use PayPal anymore

My old card expired and I tried to update it with my new details. It kept getting declined and I closed my account and opened a new one with the same email. My card still kept getting declined and now my account is completely closed. I can't understand why my card got initially declined, there is nothing wrong with it, and why my account is completely closed now. Why is it so hard to talk to real person from Paypal customer support, if there is even one.

I have done that and I have provided all the documents that are required. The response was that this is Paypal's final answer and that I can't use Paypal anymore. I've received a call from my bank today (Danske bank) and they told me that there isn't anything wrong with my card and that other Danske bank customers are having similar issues. There is a new law in Denmark that requires an account verification using Nemid whenever you use your card online. https://danskebank.dk/en/personal/help/secure-online-trade

It appears that this redirection to Nemid verification does not work with Paypal. So my account got permanently restricted because of a Paypal bug...
