Waiting on Paypal

    OK - to cut a long story short, paypal limited my account as they required more information, i provided all info such as bank account, CC , passport, statement etc, which leaves me on the last step confirming address. At first the confirm by phone option was there, i went to do that and mistakenly entered the wrong 4 digits [Rushing from upstairs to downstairs to pick up phone :p]

    Now they said they are sending a letter with security code instead to verify address.

    On paypal it says it will take roughly 14 days to arrive. I assumed they just say that to be sure, it's now been 16 days and it's bothering me as i can't do no business.

    I've emailed them and no reply so far, should i ring them or wait. [Ringing in the UK costs a shit load xD]

    Anyone waited so long for the letter before? Whats the standard time?

    paypal is slow as fuck, when they mean 14 days, they most likely mean 14 business days, and for paypal, 14 business days means about 3 - 6 months.

    I highly reccomend a merchant account.

    Have you actually had to wait for the letter or not?
