    They limited my acc becouse of VMI card, and than, they asked me to upload utility bill and bank statement. I uploaded it and now I got this reply:

    We're sorry, but your account access limitation cannot be lifted at this
    time. We need more information about your account before we can restore
    full access to your account. Please complete the steps below so that we may
    review your account further:

    - Submit a copy of your monthly statement for the credit card ending in
    XXXX. The statement must show your name, address and account number exactly
    as they appear in your PayPal account.

    - Submit a copy of your monthly statement for the bank account ending in
    XXXX. The statement must show your name, address and ***account number***
    exactly as they appear in your PayPal account.

    - Submit a copy of a current utility bill. The bill must show your name and
    address exactly as they appear in your PayPal account.

    - Submit a copy of your driver's license/passport. Please make the copy of
    this as large and as light as possible.



    I can`t upload CC statement becouse I verified it by VCC. However, I'll just quit paypal or maybe make another account defenelly not on my name. f*ck paypal

    Yes what is a VMI card? It sort of sounds like they suspect you of some sort of fraud :0

    Wow, that's frustrating. Paypal does seem to have gone crazy, given the number of GPT site accounts they've frozen and some of their other new policies. One way to verify if you don't have a bank account is to open a free Obopay account (it's like paypal) but via Obopay you can get a direct deposit number just by viewing your account information... and Voila!

    Good luck to you with this dispute.

    A VCC is not a proper tool to provide any form of verification. Most of the VCC offered here are by people who do not even have the authority to offer them as they are supposed to be used by themselves. The whole purpose of verification is to determine your true identity and Paypal relies on your credit card bank's verification process.

    For all these you certainly only have yourself to blame, when paypal say to use a credit card, you have to certainly use a credit card and not some souped up fake tool for the process. They probably already know your VCC is a fake tool and ask you for your credit card statement.

    You shouldn't make another account with a fake name or someone's elses name as that would certainly be a violation of your contractual agreement and will lead you into further problems.

    Next time when you sign up with anyone, make sure you read the terms and conditions and comply to them fully.
