    What do you do to get in those positions? Ive only had troubles with them once on a big dispute, the others were scammer minor disputes but I don't understand how you would get "banned"

    How ever i do have a back up paypal account for times like this im sure ill get it sorted but to me they sometimes ban you for stupid things i suppose they got there reason but i have yet to find this out.

    I leave a few thousands in there as shazz says interest alot better than my bank and thats the main reason i leave it there.

    Does paypal pay interest on your balance? I thought the money never generate any interest. Or you just invest in the Money Market Fund that they have?

    Just above $25.

    I do not need it for payment etc. anyway, that's the reason for keeping low balance.

    Well I would happy to keep more than $1000 in my account to save fees and charges of withdrawal. I have no problems in last 5 years with PayPal so it's ok for me.
