Today my paypal account was suspended because I had to prove my identity (which showed my date of birth) and this showed my account was created before the age of 18, which yeah I get was a bad idea, but I have been using this account for the last 4 years with no problems until now, most of my use of this account has been in the last year where I have been over the age of 18. I have tried going into my account settings to remove all my information, I can't remove anything, my address, phone number, bank account, debit card, secondary, third, fourth linked emails. I need to use paypal, so the email I recieved says to create a different account with a different email. I don't have a different email. If I were to close my account would it remove all my details and allow me to use them in another account, if not what else can I do. This has been a major ball ache and a terrible experience all the way through, it started with "Suspicious activity noticed on your account" relating to someone adding a card to my account, there had been none, then they asked me to verify my card and send in proof of my identity, next day they close my account. Not happy. I need to get this new paypal account setup pretty quickly, so if anyone has any ideas, please throw them my way.
