Withholding our balances for 180 days is a severe penalty!

Like many of you, my account has been limited just because I have moved to another country. Withholding our balances for 180 days sounds like a severe penalty that has been imposed on me with absolutely no fault of mine! Can Paypal not better such measures?

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.

You may be restricted in trying to use any funds received on another countries paypal account.

If you had moved before, you would know that there's a thousand things to handle when moving! And Paypal cannot award a bit of grace to allow for us to transfer our remaining balance/s before "limiting it"?
