Dear XXXX   , Hi, my name is xxxx from PayPal Customer Support.   To directly answer your concern, even if your friend and family made 10 transactions on your account but still your account doesn’t reach all of the criteria or status stated on our previous email, Payment Hold Policy will still be applied.   We’ll be unable to bypass or override the system as it will require us to provide a tracking number that shows the item was delivered for 3 days before the system allow us to manually release the payment.   I appreciate your patience and understanding regarding this matter.
