I’ve received an email saying that my account is going to close, but I’m not sure why I’ve read through the user agreement and can’t seem to find what I have done wrong. How do I get money out of my account and how do I stop my account from closing. Many thanks

SURE ITS NOT A SPOOF???

 

If its a spoof then NEVER USE ANY LINK.

Firstly if the email/text addressed you as ''Dear Member'' / ''Customer'' / ''Client'' OR your ''email address'' then that confirms its a spoof as paypal would address you by your full name eg Dear John Smith.

Secondly if there was a link OR attachment in that email/text to ''cancel'' any transaction or ''confirm'' any details then again it would be a spoof.

If there was a problem with your account Paypal would not ask you to click on an unsafe link in an email or by downloading an attachment, they would direct you to log in normally and go to the resolution or the message centre for more information.
