Account Limitation and Withdrawal Challenges

Whilst in Lesotho, i created a paypal business account using my Ghana information. Unfortunately, i returned to Ghana a couple of weeks later and could still easily access my account until a couple of weeks later where paypal issued me a message of suspending my account for a period of 180 days afterwhich i will be able to withdraw my funds. 180 days is over and every credit/debit card i link is declined. Im not in Lesotho and there are no plans of going to Lesotho. what is the alternative available for me now to receive my funds from paypal?

Paypal is country specific so if you move countries you have to open another paypal account in the country you reside in and add an address / phone number / bank accounts / cards from within that country.

You should really withdraw any funds / resolve issues / remove cards and bank accounts / cancel any subscriptions and close the old Paypal account before you move countries. If you don't then you may have problems doing so once you have moved and may need to contact customer services for help to resolve things.
