Paypal is not a bank , so they do not have the same security options or fdic coverage that a bank might have . So your best bet is to call them and find out why they have a security block on your account . Their program reviews every transaction now and flags them more often that not . If you have made changes to your account or your phone number or address does not match what they have on file . even if you have made a transaction that is larger than what has been made before it may be flagged . paypal has an old , outdated and flawed system that only works because it takes an inordinate amount of time and effort to make a large transaction go through . Please call them , and let them know your issues . It will only be through consistent pressure and complaint that a change will be made .

I've been using my bank account for paypal just fine until today. I went to renew my spotify with my paypal and my bank account is no longer an option to pay with. This is happening with every other site as well, it won't let me pay with my bank, only debit/credit cards. Problem is my bank card isn't meant for online use so I can't use paypal at all right now. My bank details are still in my paypal payment methods if I go into my account, so I'm really confused right now (and kinda worried, because when I went to pay for spotify Paypal told me to change my password because there has been "suspicious activity") and any help would be appreciated
