Limited Account Access In Paypal

    Hello friends,
    I just registered with paypal, entered my credit card number and also entered expanded number recieved in my credit card.
    Now when I opened my account today it says that you have limited account access. Its something like this :

    Now in a resolution center it required my address proof in fax. But I dont have any document which has proof of my address. Because in my passport and driving licence I have my old house's address.

    I am from India. So I want to ask if anyone from India whats the solution for this ?

    Which document I provide so that they remove my limited account access ?

    In my PAN card I have current address. Is it valid to give PAN card xerox in fax ?

    Or light bill or telephone bill of new house is valid ?

    Please give me advice. They want the fax in 7 days.

    yes, you can fax them cable bill, phone bill, electricity bill etc. BUT NOT YOUR MOBILE BILL

    Fax them along with the cover sheet PayPal give you in the resoltuion center...and within 2 days after the fax, they will email you confirming the reciept of documents and in next 3-5 days, they will give you the outcome of the documents...
    ;)

    From TOS

    It says if the investigation is not in your favour.

    But what if you do not provide any docs at all ? Or just give one or two so that it is not in your favour ?

    Expertguy,

    After 180 Days, do they close account ? Are you allowed to open another later ?

    I have a friend from india. He has added credit card to his account, but did not face any problem. Did you enter the number accurately which has come with your credit card statement?

    Can't you edit the address in your profile while your account is being limited?

    Here's my solution for your problem.
    Withdraw the money and create new account and this time used your address in passport. ;)

    Of course feeling happy now. At least I can purchase some pending things from net. And I was impressed by paypal service. I sent fax and recieved reply just after 4-5 hours that your account has been resolved now.

    I think you can fax that bill. They only need to verify your address on your bill. But if not Paypal will advice you on what other documents you can send to them. Try to email Paypal about your issue thats the best option. ;)
