i hate paypal

gtrokin330 · 03-11-2009, 08:29 PM

Hey guys,

Couple quick questions...I tried to sell my wheels via paypal but the amoutn was so large that they now think im a mass seller so they want SOOO much information that doesnt apply to my situation. I tried calling, nothing. I tried emailing, nothing. My acct has a limitation and its impossible to lift it due to the information they want. How the hell do i go about lifting this? The steps they give dont apply to me.

Another Q, it says i can receive money while being limited but doesnt say if i can withdraw via paypal debit card from an ATM. Do you know if i can withdraw at an ATM while being limited?

I have so much stuff i need to sell and people are scared to pay by any other medium. I need this thing lifted.

Thanks

Call Paypal. You need to get verified (attach a bank account) and become a premier account. That will lift your withdrawal and send amounts. It also protects you from dubious buyers.

Its not hard. Call paypal they will step you through it.

customer service isn't exactly paypal's claim to fame. i've had to call paypal before with similar insane hold times, but if you want to get things done, i'd suggest putting in on speaker and begin rewriting the dictionary. paypal really blows, but it's the easiest and most widely accepted form of online payment, unfortunately.

i think has more to do with the patriot act and concerns about money laundering...but i may be mistaken..

My account got limited once when I had the very first preorders of PS3s and tried to sell them on Ebay, they limited my paypal account I was able to receive payments but can't withdraw. They asked me to show them pictures of the actual PS3s (if I remembered right) and the receipts, so I had to wait til the PS3 actual comes out... SUCKS! good luck bro
