    It can take longer if they are not satisfied with the documents submitted.

    When they suspended my account I was able to phone them and it was sorted out later that day, but it may take longer depending on the reason they suspended it.

    They should restore your account once they are satisfied with it, it will only take longer if they ask for more information.

    I think, if your docs are genuine, then 5-6 business days, you'll be fine

    Yes, there really is no time limit how long it takes Paypal to settle an account issue. But, if you want things done fast, just call them to resolve it.

    instead of waiting, you could call paypal and ask for status instead.. its more efficient, and might get your account lifted

    It really depends on the reason they suspended the account. It is always best to call and talk to someone. Call more than once if you feel an error has been made and you have supplied them with all of the requested information. I've never had an issue talking to paypal customer service people and I hope your situation gets resolved :)
