The hold on the funds is in case disputes are filed against your PayPal account by senders and so money will be there to cover the refunds. What's left over you can withdrawal after 180 days when PayPal notifies you. You somehow breached user agreement, or violated acceptable use policy, exactly as listed or unlisted but remotely related.
