Okay, so here's the gist of my little problem at the moment, sorry if it's lengthy; I'm a 16 year old Highschooler, part time job employee and I make money off of my art work via this site called Deviantart by doing commissions. I signed up to use paypal to see if maybe I can make art some sort of part time employment so I can benefit from it in the future; thus siding to paypal for financial transers and of the like. So I am a clueless kid who barely knows how to use paypal, and my bank for some reason just would connect and it kept ticking me off. So I decided to remove the bank to try and re-add it. Next thing I know, out of the blue I see these notifications saying how Paypal now needs proof of my identiy of the like? I barely even help my mom pay BILLS let alone sending a fax of my utility. So the most I did was send a photo of my ID since that's the easiest thing I could do since I don't have my own copy of my social security card and I don't pay the utilities; that is under my mother's name which I doubt would help my cause. I would've called Customer Support about now, but sadly my mother has a phone restriction so I don't make calls past a certain time, and it's almost 2 AM as I'm typing this. So I'm hoping the Paypal community/mods/ect. could help me and maybe give me some tips/suggestions/ideas/ect. Because I REALLY need to use paypal if I do plan on taking commissions. Forgive me if a little kid is all of a sudden bombarding this place with questions; but I can be down right dumb. Sorry. Please reply with any sorts of wisdom any one can provide me.
