PayPal Limitation

DenchGold · Oct 15, 2014

Okay so i was limited by paypal today with $200 funds in my paypal account.
i really need the money but to possibly remove the limitation paypal is asking me to add a card or photo ID or provide proof of address.

What proof of address do they want?
What valid proof can i give?

Also i was reading around and i came across something like your funds become available after 180days wait. Does this mean the complete limitation gets removed after 180days? Even if i don't provide the proof they require?

Please help as i want to become unlimited asap as now im stopped from doing business on Sythe.

You can send in a copy of your drivers licence to verify your address.

Simply send them a copies of exactly what they ask for. It should then get resolved in a few business days.

Everyone who receives over $3000 / €2500 has to go through the same thing.
I sent mine preemptively in order to not get limited.

Bank statement - print it if you can download it from your banks website, otherwise go to your branch and ask for one if you dont have a recent one around.

Passport/ID copy: just scan it and upload it.

You might need another document, but you get the point

Thing is i can't provide them as im unverified. is there anyway to get unlimited by showing some other sort of proof just to confirm address?
And do i auto get unlimited after 180 days even if i dont provide the info?

paypal has a new thing when you create an account you need 5 sucessful transactions or to wait 30 days before you funds will become released. I dont know where you got 180 days from but you could always call the support team?

You become verified automatically by going through this process.
You simply need to go to the resolution center, and do everything paypal wants you to do (Link a bank account, provide these proofs, etc). And I mean everything.

And I dont think you'd get unlimited in any way without doing this, your yearly max simply resets as far as I know.

Thing is I can't add a bank etc, and I was reading around that your funds become available to send etc, after 180days. Of limitation? I really confused and annoyed right now, someone please help with as much info as possible

Funds will become available after 30 days. Than you can use it but than once yourv reached your limit again you will have to wait another 30 days to use it again.

Did that make more sense. You will always have your limitation on your account though.

You making this up for post count or something? The limitation stops you from sending funds etc. if you were allowed to send funds withdraw the limitation would be pointless also I have not gone over any sending limits, nowhere near tbh. So they deffo won't become available after 30days

I dont even know what are you trying to do with an unverified paypal.
And no, if you dont do anything they want, they wont do anything, they wont just let it go. Your only way out is to verify yourself with an ID or something.
