I had to create a dummy account because my main account was recently "closed" by paypal and I can't do anything about it. Can't withdraw anything from my balance, which had almost 4k in there and they said it'll take up 180 days for me to take anything out, which is practically stealing in my opinion. Taking someone's money for 180 days and not letting them do anything about it. Apprentally, it started with me selling a coupe (5) high priced items on ebay. Then they sent me a notice to provide proof of purchases, blah blah and more paperwork... I did all that and suddenly, they closed my account because it was too high risk. Spent 4-5 hours on the phone, trying to find out what happened and nothing, just the same excuse from every customer service, even the manager. So now, I am forced to go to the BBB to file a claim and a lawsuit if i don't see anything within the next couple of days. If you are thinking of doing business with paypal, i would suggest you look at another service that will directly put the payment into your account. With paypal, they control your money! you don't have direct control over it, they do! and they will close it/freeze it according to their will. Now I'm stuck waiting for 180 days....half a year
