Be careful while you withdraw xxxx$nfrom paypal. I lost 128$ today!

    I am a verified premier paypal user from india, today I planned to withdraw $2000 from my paypal to bank account. But immediately after I submitted the withdrawal request, my account was limited and the transaction was reversed. I am really fed up with their security system. Whenever I try to login to paypal via my mobile, they limits my account because of "unusual log in activity" !

    Because of their automated security system I lost around 128$ today. :mad: (usd to inr & again inr to usd conversions!). This is not our fault!! Paypal is creating miserable situations now and they are making us to pay for their flaws!

    Whats next ?
    • Made a call to their US office. But it is closed now.
    • Opened a support ticket and waiting for their response. :(

    I feel helpless in this scenario. My advice is not to withdraw more than 1000$ at a time. Else you will also end up in loosing your hard earned money.

    Drop an email to the support, you will get your money back. Also its on your part if your account get limited by using mobile, why do you do it on first hand lol.

    You should never access your PayPal account via Opera mini mobile browser because it connects you via the Poland based IP address and PayPal will immediately limit your account.

    It's not a USA problem, as I withdraw $x,xxx weekly with no fines, it has to do with the currency I believe.

    I think paypal is strict when you withdraw big amount funds. But it gives lots of pains when you lose such big money

    Less then 50,000 Rs. is secure withdrawal from paypal .. now you need to go through paypal Resoulution center to upload necessary documents as per their requirements ..And yeah dial a call as well.
