Hi, Do you fear that someday your paypal will get limited? PayPal constantly watches the accounts for 'suspicious activity'. If you are receiving money from an affiliate network or some other source and if you withdraw it immediately to bank OR send it to some other account.. its clearly flags up in PayPal and it gets limited. I have had 1 incident like this myself and I have seen many people in such situation. I know that it will be frustrating... but in case if its not you who did it... then PayPal saves you from your money being lost by limiting it. Thats the best thing that they can do. So the next time when u receive funds, let it stay there for 24 hours and then withdraw. Good Luck, Rep Appreciated
That seems odd. I have just started using my PayPal business account more and regularly withdraw funds on a daily or every other day basis. I do not use their debit card in that I want to keep all purchases on one card. My transfer amounts are not large. Are you sure? Q...
if your activites are questionable,,, then you may get limited if you withdraw the money as soon as you get it.... but normally you will not get limited just because of withdrawing money from your account as soon as you get it...
I am NOT saying that you will always get limited for immediate withdrawal. But the chances are high... esp if your PayPal has not been limited in the past and if its less than 12 months old.
That's odd! but that already happened to many people as you said... Thanks for the advice... grey rep added
It's really about suspicious activity and most of the time a simple phone call will get your account restored to full access. So some ways you can get limited: - With drawing funds the second you receive it from another high risk user - Logging into Paypal account from proxy's or countries not listed on your account - Receiving countless fraudulent payments that get reversed - Receiving constant complaints about lack of shipment ect. Most common things I see why accounts are limited and most it's a matter of a simple call to them to have the account restored to fully access.
Nice tip. I try to keep my funds in my account as long as possible to prevent it from being flaged by Paypal.
Wow, thanks for sharing the info. How true is it actually? I'm surprised Paypal has the resource to monitor every account transactions. I mean that is actually a lot of accounts around. Most of the time, I will do that to transfer to my another verified account but so far so good, no problem yet.
I've withdrawn amounts ranging from $1-300 numerous times within minutes after receiving them without having my account limited and I've had the account for 2-years. I've only had my account limited once and that was last week because supposedly "a 3rd party" accessed my account. I had it restored in about 3-hours.
Hmm I think no... I'm regularly withdrawing my funds daily.. with 300 to 500 daily withdrawal.. everytime someone sent me money ... But my account is not limiting my PayPal..
Totally agreed with you. As I have experienced the same 2 Sundays back when I got a payment of $500 from my affiliates to a brand new PayPal (since I don't want to expose my old PayPal for affiliates) & withdrew within 12 hours However when I sent them the documents they asked & the affiliate payment email they restored it within hours.
WHile you cannot completely know why the account is limited. Chances are whenever you receive a huge amount for the first time, you'll be probably limited, if you are unverified. if you're verified, that transaction may be held for review by Paypal, which would get the payment reversed. Unverified accounts have very less chances of getting the money to hand. And yes, the term "unverified" applies to users using Virtual Credit Card as well.
