so basically i’m just trying to transfer money from my pay pal to my bank account but it’s not letting me because my account is limited. Also I put my date of birth under 2000 but is 2004 only so I could link it to my ebay account and now I realise i made a mistake.

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 may not have any recourse to get your money back until you were 18, unless you contact them and request funds being sent to a parents Paypal account, not guaranteed however.
