Hi Paypal   My account has been limited after paypal suspected suspicious activity. This activity however was ALL me... it included buying something from the apple website using paypal credit for around £1000, changing my address and mobile number. Paypal shortly contacted me via email to inform me of the activity and the fact they had limited my account. They required me to confirm my identity.. i did this via my driving license. On the email it said they would resolve this issue within 48hrs... this how now past this period.    I have tried contacting paypal but no real helps been given.. im more worried about the payments of the apple product as im not able to access the page to set up direct debits.   if somebody from paypal could help id be so grateful!   thank you   Ben ...

On 29/01/16 i recived an emial from paypal telling me they had detected suspicious activity on my account. From what i could see this was just me.. i had recently brought something using paypal credit and changed my mobile number within the space of 15 minutes. The email asked me to confirm my identity. I did this in the form of my driving license.    Once i had done thst paypal said they would resolve the issue with 48hrs. This has mow passed and im growing concerned. Ive spent large periods on time on the paypal site trying to see if theres anything i could do to remove the limitatation.   Its just concerning me as i have brought something using paypal credit and worry about not being able to make my first repayment sue to my account being limited.   if anyone could help that would be great.   p.s. i have tryed contacting paypal but ive failed to get a responce!   thanks   Ben       ...
