    You should read the Paypal help files:

    https://www.paypal.com/helpcenter/m...utionTopic=800042&solutionId=11858&isSrch=Yes

    Note that this is information for US accounts. You should check the help files for your country if you live elsewhere.

    Yes, you can create an additional personal account. Having one account become limited due to the other would depend on the severity of the reason why it happened in the first place.

    I also believe you can have more than one per household if you have multiple people in your home.

    You should not open more paypal accounts under the same name. Your account might be limited.

    I don't think that you will face problem in your premier account if your personal account gets limited.

    People/accounts never become banned nor limited without reason, that is generally said by people who do not understand why such an incident occurred.

    You can open one pp ac for same name and same address. Otherwise they will freeze your account.

    A premier Paypal account is used for when you want to receive payments using credit card or paypal for things that you are selling online. The way they do this is they allow you to put a "Paypal" payment button which will accept paypal and credit cards.

    This is one of the quickest and easiest way to put something up online and being able to take in payments. A regular paypal account allows you to pay for online payments. And it can take payments in multiple currencies (very handy if you are selling products or services) in a non-US-dollar country.

    The reason why you have a limited account is probably because you have not re-certified your credit card with paypal. When you open a new paypal account, they will ask for an active credit card. They will then charge you a returnable $3 fee. This fee is refunded back to your account once you key the billling id on your credit card bill (from paypal) into your paypal account.

    They allow more than one account, but not the same bank or credit card can be used so this allows them to grab money from each of your accounts at anytime and that includes fraudulent chargeback attempts, so Paypal is not merchant friendly, and I have dumped them.
