Hi, This has been quite a long journey and extremely tedious.. Trying to resolve it and figuring out what's going on. It started off when i sold my first USED item on eBay, which was a graphics card i took out of my computer. Note that i had ZERO problems before using paypal with a prepaid credit card, it just came out of nowhere.. Few days later after i sold the graphics card, my account was hit with a limit; They told me to provide numerous things,two of which i couldn't provide- "Businessa information" and "Available inventory", because i'm not in any kind of business! So i messaged paypal about it, took two days with two seperate messages til i got an answer. Finally.. I was requested to write a "Document" explaining my situation and send it to them, odd but okay. I did that, and sent it. the representative thanked me and told me it would be escalated to the right department. All good. not really.. Two weeks later, i started being worried as my account was limited and i couldn't do anything with my account during that time. So i messaged them kindly, asking if everything went fine. I got a response 24hrs later, that the document was indeed escalated to the right deperatment but they cannot give me an estimate time when will something happen, but that's fine. If it was being worked on that what matters, just was hoping they didn't ditch the document or forgot about it.. Now one day later, i was hit with a surprise. I was checking on if something has happened by clicking on a notifcation that would say "There is a problem with your account..." in red, instead of redirecting me to a page like before i got a "You can't use PayPal anymore" message with an explanation of what's going to happen next. In short: "Any bank account or card linked to your PayPal account cannot be removed or used to create a new account. You can still log in and see your account information but you can’t send or receive payments. Any funds in your balance will be held for 180 days, at which point we’ll email you instructions about withdrawing your funds." ..Why? I am completely clueless at this point, and i'm not even sure what can i do anymore. Will messaging them even work?.. it hasn't done anything so far.. i'm extremely frustrated and now this.. As if i hadn't enough problems already. What would i need to do in this situation? any advice? i'm just stumped.
