PayPal sales limit is way too low?

" Why your money is on hold
PayPal will withhold for 21 days any money above $3,800.00 CAD in sales each month for the reason(s) listed below. You can process $211.63 CAD more this month before you reach that threshold.
We've noticed an unusually large increase in your sales activity.
On 18/04/2021, you requested an increase of the amount available to you. You can make another request on 18/05/2021."

 

Its only the 12th day of the month, and I'm already near the amount I can sell per month. I made a request last month for an increase in my sales limit, which wouldn't even let me provide a reason, and it got denied. I'm selling far more than the $3800 monthly sales limit that I have, and I'm unable to do anything about it. If anyone can help me on this topic, or if anyone has had any experience on this topic, please reply.

I'm sorry to hear you're running into payment holds. For more information on how to release the holds early, I recommend visiting this article from our Help Center: How can I release my payment(s) on hold? For further assistance, you can contact us by clicking 'Contact' at the bottom of any PayPal page. 

I hope this helps!
