    Hi,

    I've just noticed that I can't recieve any money on my paypal account anymore. I only can send money. First their was my client who tried to pay me 40$. He said he got the mail from paypal that his payment was send and waiting to be claimed by me. To test it I've called my friend, sended him 2$ and he returned 1$. But still I didn't see anything on Paypal or my mailbox. Also he had recieved the same mail. It's very weird because I've had several previous payments on my account with no problems. Also I don't see any message on the website that my account is banned/limit exeeded.

    Does sombody know how to solve this?

    Thomas

    Edit: PS, the friend is my real life friend wich certainly will not scam me, he forwarded the mail from paypal. Also the client didn't scam me, because he sended the money to my other PP account afterwards. So that's not the problem.

    To accept a payment just view your recent transactions on your main account page and click "Accept"

    If your account isn't verified and you have exceeded the maximum limit of accepting 6 debit card payments, then you will need to verify before you can accept any more.

    Hmm, that's very strange.. Try sending him an invoice from your paypal account, to his email. If it doesn't work that way, I'm not sure what could be happening.. Maybe it's time to contact Paypal?

    Thomas,

    Maybe a quick heads up on your solution could save some others the same headache in the future..
    Did you get verified, etc...

    Glad you got it working,

    Ed

    Something with underscores and points in my paypal ID. My friend and the client had just mistyped my ID ;-). Not their fault though, I was confused, I always use _'s but my paypal ID had .'s.

    Thank you all for your time though,
    Thomas
