I would suggest filing a complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Agency, and FTC. This seems to be the way PayPal does business. I'm limited from accessing my own money because Paypal seems to have the ability to control my access to money that is mine. Of course they collected their fee and now I can't access my own available balance. I replied to their request for more information and now it's day 5 of 'Being reviewed' Calling customer service will only serve to waste upwards of 2 hours of your time, and they will simply tell you that you must wait for the review to be completed. If more people file complaints with the agencies I listed above, it may help bring more attention from outside agencies to apply some pressure to Paypal. Of course being the little guy, none of these companies actually care about me, or the damage it's doing to my livelihood. It's really unbelievable. The worst part of all of this is that I despise having to use Paypal but Ebay doesn't allow an alternative. This should fall under antitrust laws. if I had an option, I would NEVER use paypal, but since I'm being forced to use this terrible service I'm of course being strong held by their unreasonable rules.
