Please help me I opened my PayPal account in my married name as despite being divorced my bank account was still in my married name. I'm close to hitting the £2500 limit so PayPal have asked my to prove id and put a hold on my account. My passport is in my maiden name so I have uploaded this. I've also gone on to change my name and uploaded documents showing my divorce. How long will this take, it's been going on for days and I can't seem to get an actual reply to my messages, just a copy and paste job. All of the money in my PayPal account is frozen, I can't even use to to print postage labels which is soon going to cause problems with my Ebay customers.

Don't hold your breath as it can be weeks or months.
Also you can't verify a name with a document in another name.
