Hello! So, I linked PayPal to my Upwork account. They presumably have certain checks to make sure account is genuine, etc. Everything was fine, so I withdrew my quarterly Upwork earnings to PayPal. Card was linked and verified. However, when I click on withdrawing funds, it gives me a message:
We're sorry. We're not able to process your request right now. Please try again later.
I tried small amounts, tried different times of day, waited several days. Doesn't work. Then wrote to Support. Got following messages:

hi, could you be able to resolve the issue. when i ask to customer service i am being told that it is automatically done by system for the security of both for the sender and receiver if it is a payment for goods. the interesting part is. i could be able to transfer my funds once (first and only yet) but it was a small amount. now eventhough the fund seems available to use the system doesn't let me to withdraw it for not a remarkable reason as i see. if this is not something temporary or exceptional i am afraid that i wouldn't be willing to use paypal to receive my payments.

No, I haven't been able to resolve the issue. If PayPal was honest and let the users know that they would not be able to withdraw funds without a legitimate reason, I would never use PayPal. Now, my money is stuck there, I don't know for how long.
Hope you will resolve the issue. Let me know if you are successful.

i am sad for both of us. i couldn't resolve either and lost enough money to transfer my funds and still transferring as they let me do it maximum 49$ at once and each transaction costs 4.5$ fee. if i knew i would experience this type of service i could think twice before accepting my payments via paypal. basically i lost 45$ usd to withdraw 490$ and still losing almost %9 of what i have and i am not talking about currency rate (it could be still acceptable if i could use tansferring money option properly) too.
i feel like i lend money to someone and begging him to give it back to me even though this money is my own individual wealth.
underwhelming.
