$10 PayPal reward!! First who can tell me how to get my PayPal off limited status.

[End User King]

I am making a $10 paypal reward to the first person who
can successfully help me get my paypal account out of
limited status.

I recently made 5 transactions on paypal totalling $18,765.
Problem is paypal is telling me it is suspicious activity. They
are asking me for " proof of delivery ". To prove this proof of
delivery they need a tracking number, and a shipping company
who handled the shipping. Problem is...this is impossible. The
funds I hold are not tracked, they are from domains I sold.

How do I get this situation settled? I hate having this money
tied up with paypal. I usually leave my paypal money in
paypal and never withdraw, but I want to now and I cant.

Other requirements that I've completed is proof of residence,
proof of telephone, they also need me to fax in proof
of identity on a business day. Has anyone else faced
this bullshhh?

yeah i have... but i solved it out calling them its way different the attention you get from writting them something than when you go n call them, they take you more seriously.

What you have to do is call them and explain you sold a domain name, and it doesnt need to be shipped since its given over the internet, they will ask your 4 last digits of ur credit card number have them ready just in case, and they will immediatly return the activity of your paypal.

Call them to their Customer Service Center:


PayPal Customer Service Agents are available to help you during the following times:

4:00 AM PST to 10:00 PM PST Monday through Friday
6:00 AM PST to 8:00 PM PST on Saturday and Sunday

1-402-935-2050 (a U.S. telephone number)

Holy Sams, I'm gonna try that now. How about the fax? Do I have to do the fax too. I dont have immediate access to a fax machine.

Big help though bro. If this works, the $10 pp is yours. Just pm me your paypal info.

update: Just got off the phone with a rep. Was told I had to email [email protected] and explain my issue, and I would get a response
within 24-48 hrs. Great (sarcastically)!

u ll have to fax documents like a proof of residence, proof of telephone, proof
of identity too, i dont know if u already have done that, they ask you to do it since your account goes over the 500 USD or so, cuz they want to know that you are the holder of the account and they need that confirm you are a citizen from the country you claim to be.

PM with paypal info sent.

but did u already fax your documents? if you have already done that you can call them telling them that u already faxed n ask them to look at it.

If u faxed the documents in the past then u are already verified and u just need to call, and ask help for account limitations to the voice machine, then limited account. n once u get to talk to a representative tell them u already done what it ask to do on the webpage which is fax ur documents and u dont know what else u can do since u sold a domain name and that u rather talk to a representative on the phone than sending emails.

If u havent ever faxed ur documents u need to fax them.

n tell them the email way doesnt work for u and you really need you access back since you use it for work.

I officially am done with paypal. Once I clear all funds with them, I'm finished.
No I still haven't resolved this situation, now they want proof of domain ownership and proof of transfer faxed to them.

What makes paypal an authority of how the domain process works.
They're screwing with me and they know it. I hope paypal gets hung.

As for tracking, I was fine using "intangible" for both fields. This is what the CSR told me to do, and it worked :tu: hope it helps!

However, a print screen of a push confirmation or email may be fine..

 

[End User King]

This is what's so screwed up about it. I have sold dozens upon dozens of dns, I dont feel like looking up every domain pushed, can this bs be simplified at all. Proof of ownership. Say I dont even own the domains anymore, am I now reduced to sorting out proof of this. Pissed off and stressed out.
Furthermore I have 11 transactions that have been returned and bank transfers that've been reversed all for Paypal's amusement.

Hey, I think you and I transacted for some domains a short while ago.

It's too bad that you are having this problem, but at the same time this kind of crap helps to keep all of us from being ripped off. When the red tape gets to be too much, it's time to escalate the issue to upper management. I would contact them and try to talk to someone that can make a decision and not just follow rules.

If you can get some of the buyers to contact paypal and confirm that the transactions are valid then that may help. And if you can get a contact there, I think several of us with PayPal accounts would be willing to speak up on this issue.

My domain transactions have been in the $10-$20 range, but I would like to know that if I should have a larger sale that it's not going to be a problem. PayPal should NOT be flagging transactions if the buyers are not complaining. Why not ask the BUYERS to confirm that they agree to the purchase and after the sale confirm that they are 100% satisfied?

You do have other choices, like getting a merchant account or using Google's new system. But you may run into the same problem again. I think it's hard for these companies to have so many fairly large dollar transactions take place, with no physical goods exchanging hands. Kind of scary really...! But that's the reality of the situation and they need to adapt.

I hate Paypal to the fullest. Almost 19,000 grand there and it seems it's staying there.

im so damn pissed. Screw it. I talked to the highest person to no avail today. I've furhter more had 3 more transactions returned to the buyer because they were given the message " the recipient is unable to receive funds". Total loss in the last week...$4000.00. Also my earnings from parking have been denied.

All is definately not good at paypal.

I don't blame you one bit! Here is a message I just posted to their customer service:

Hi,

I know that some people run afoul of your rules and policies and mostly I think it's the person or something they did that warrants your actions. I appreciate your security.

I would like to direct your attention to this forum thread:
http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?p=1798888#post1798888

and let you know that while I don't know the seller personally, I did make a small purchase from him and was very happy with the results. He actually gave me some extra domain names to make up for some delays in our transaction.

From what I can tell, you are making it very difficult for him to do business, withholding funds, and causing him to lose business. While your actions may be justified, it does cast some doubts as to what is happening and if MY business could also be affected in the future.

I hope that you can look into this situation and perhaps contact the BUYERS to verify the sales are valid???

Thank you,
Chris Nielsen

As I said, while I have bought some domains from you, I don't know you. I did this because what appears to be going on is wrong and if it is, then I am concerned that their current policies could also affect me in the future.

 

[timmaay]

anytime you have transactions over 10k you are going to have issues with any services like paypal ... especially after 911 if funds are coming from/to US from/to an outside country.

 

[buckshotdots]

wow---

OUCH, parking denied too. Good info for us going forward. I will put up with escrows faxing and everything so I don't have to put up with this bull.

thanks for telling your story and good luck, tell the post how it goes.

The world needs a paypal alternative.
One such alternative is Green Zap however they are a new company and therefor do not have the client base and universal acceptance that paypal has.

 

[End User King]

Thanks for all your advice guys. Even if I never get access to my money,
at least I appreciate the thoughts and support from my fellow domainers.
You win some, you lose some. I'm resting this matter. The time I've invested
in resolving this issue has more than set me back from what I could've been
making.

Sounds like you might benefit from hiring some employees or contractors to free you up from stuff like this?

If you are interested in some ideas, send me a PM. I think I know how you can keep this problem from happening again, based on what you have told me.

 

[End User King]

Got it straight. Good to see that good ole threats still work. Everyone who helped me up to this post will get $10 paypal, just pm your emails.

Thanks especially to nielsencl for going extra to help me.
