hi guys, just a question, got this random email from paypal saying that they've found potential risk with my account and can no longer offer paypal services to me. i am in complete shock. i called paypal and someone from the philippines picked up and said i have to look for a different payment gateway as i am totaly banned but couldn't give me a single reason why. i am absolutely gobsmacked, upset and furious. i only had one transaction in july which was to withdraw around $150 to my bank for selling a collectible item to someone in america. i've had a handful of transactions in may and june, mainly sending money , all less than $50 to friends in the philippines going through a hard time in covid. i've bought some collectible art from the UK a couple of times which were my absolutely biggest spends through paypal at around 500 UK Pounds and that's it. i've had less than 10 transactions in june and less than 10 in may and then even less than that the months prior. i hardly use paypal and it's only a once in a while thing for me and then now i get smashed with being deleted permanently from the platform. i can't even talk to someone to find out why. i don't do any legal activity and i read the user agreement and abide by all those. i don't have any fraudulent activities or anything like that. i am a normal account holder that uses paypal to send and transfer money once in a while to international countries- that's what paypal is for right. all i would like to do is to speak to someone that assesses their internal accounts, find out why my account is deleted and then if based on certain transactions that they need explanations for, i'm happy to provide as much detail as they want. the only explanation they offered me was that most of my transactions were purchases in may and june and i withdrew money for the first time in july which amounted to $150 so it was an irregular pattern...omg..really?? doesn't disabling my account seem excessive punishment for something that doesn't make sense... can someone pls provide some guidance as i have no idea what to do now...
