I am worried about my money. I haven't seen many people say they actually got theirs back, or how long it actually took.
What say you?

Hi @Longtimemember1,
Welcome to the Community!
From reviewing your previous messages, it sounds like your PayPal account has been limited.
Usually, we ask you to complete some steps to remove your account limitation. To simplify this we always list the steps to remove the limitation in the Resolution Centre.
The time it takes to resolve an account limitation depends on the complexity of your specific case; however, we will usually complete the review within 72 hours.
Please note, we will always notify you by email of our decision.
Hopefully, this helps you out.

It took four days and several back-and-forth. Funds were eventually released, but now my account is limited to $7900/mo, the rest will be held for 21 days to "allow time for shipping". I am a brick and mortar business, and use Paypal Here to accept cards. Services already rendered! Today I went to withdraw at an ATM, DECLINED again. Every month I withdraw the same amount from the same ATMs, and every month, I go to the bank at 7:30am EST and I have to wait until PayPal's phones are open to release the card.....every month!
Well, Paypal, obviously, doesn't like my money, so I will take my major transactions to square. It's been a decent 18yrs, but see-ya!
