Hi all, I have created a PayPal account recently and under my profile, I see that I have a merchant_ID number. But I'm not a merchant and the account is personal. I have received a payment when I returned an item that I bought but they send me the below message from PayPal: "We’ve placed the payment on hold because we noticed that you’re a new PayPal seller and will need time to build a positive selling history. The amount will appear in your pending balance and will be available after the order is fulfilled." I called them and the person in the help center told me that I need to wait for 21 to get the money and that my account is not merchant. I asked a friend of mine that is using PayPal for some time and he does not have a merchant ID under his profile and he receives payment immediately. Is there anything that I can do to change my account to personal from merchant? Thanks in advance for your support
