My dad accidentally made my paypal account a charity account. He thought the group I was raising money for was nonprofit, but it is not. I just received an e-mail from paypal needing supporting documents or they will freeze my account.
HOW DO I CHANGE MY ACCOUNT TO A NORMAL PAYPAL ACCOUNT WHERE I CAN RECEIVE DONATIONS FOR MYSELF AND DO NOT NEED OFFICIAL DOCUMENTATION?

Hi there leighton,
Customer Services will be able to point you in the right direction when you contact them. At this stage there is very little for you to do to lift the limit on your account. My advice would be to contact Customer Services by clicking here
I hope this information helps you
