At the end of my tether. We are a Not-for-Profit Unincorporated Association. We have a constitution and a bank account in the organisation's name. Both of these have been provided to PayPal but we can't get the account limitations lifted and the latest from PayPal is that we need to provide our Charity Registration number. We are not a registered charity (and, being based in Northern Ireland, we CAN'T be a registered charity: we have to be called forward by the charity commission to register). Nor are we tax exempt, so we can't provide a tax exemption certificate - we pay tax. We are compliant with all of our obligations under UK law but PayPal insists that we have to re-register as an Individual or Sole Trader - we're clearly neither of these! Can anyone help? PayPal do not respond to any of our requests for clarification.
