Hi, Yesterday I received $100 (Rs. 6000 approx) from a company for providing my service to them to my PayPal. As soon as I received the payment, I got an email from PayPal saying that my account access has been limited. Then I logged in to my PayPal account and the reason for limitation I saw there was: "We've noticed some changes to your usual selling activities and will need some more information about your recent sales". Then today, I called PayPal India on their toll free number, they told me to link my card and provide a proof of shipping or invoice because my transaction was seemed to be suspicious. I told them I don't have card (well, the acct is on the name of my mom, and i'm under 18, she isn't allowing me to link a card). Then they told me that they had made a note that I dont have card but I would still need to provide a proof that I provided my services to them (that company from which I rcvd. $100). I asked if I could upload the screenshots of email convo with that company when they asked my paypal email. They agreed. I uploaded the ss to resolution center and asked if the proof was valid or not. They checked the ss and told me that it is absolutely fine and would definately be helpful. They also told me that they have forwarded the proof to concern dept. and it would take 24-72 hrs for them to review the proof and remove the limitation after reviewing. I'm really worried. That paypal acct has upto Rs.10,000 and I cant withdraw until the acct access is limited. What do you guys suggest? Will the limitation be removed?
It will be removed as most of the time it happens. It also happen to me. They asked the proof of service i provided to overseas client. Although it taken more than 7 days to solve and setup up things working again. Be patience and get in touch with them via toll free. Your payment is yours. It won't go any where else. Remember for paypal Rs 10k or Rs20k is nothing. They will lose the reputation only as the competition is getting tougher day by day for them. Don't worry. .
