PayPal banned me

Its really sad to know. Why dont you appeal them.

Because its childish as fuck.

They checked my data like 20 times during this 15 years and banning me (a buyer!) for that reason is so childish, i just dont know what to tell them.

I could write: Sry that i signed up with 17 and let it sit for a year because i didnt even have a bank account and then used this account for 15 years without violating any rules and paying so many products with the service....

Im just so pissed because thats like without a reason. Thats 15 years later.

If i would have stolen or robbed anyone, they couldnt sue me for that after 15 years. But paypal bans me for not doing anything bad, but just signing up to early...

Its so stupid i dont even have words for it....

As said, im allowed to just make a new account and keep using gaypal with my real name etc.! I just dont really want to have this child game in a year again.
 
I've had exactly the same thing happen to me a year back. My account was 8 years old.. So stupid that the policy doesn't just allow you to keep it.
 
No i didnt loose money. I even can still payout my funds that are on paypal.

As said, thats a private account which i always only used as a buyer. One exception was Fiverr.

After receiving 2000€ from Fiverr this month, they asked for verification. Thats nothing Special.

The account is 15 yo and i verified it probably 20 times already. Back in the days they asked every few months.

Now im not sure if i will keep doing fiverr at all.
Simply use Payoneer for fiverr.
 
Simply use Payoneer for fiverr.
Thats expensive. Paying 2% to receive funds, then paying 2% to get that to a eur bank.

Comparing to gaypal: 0% on everything.

They also have a minimum withdrawal. I have 45$ sitting there, but i couldnt pay them out.

The other good thing with gaypal was: All shops use it. I was able to go shopping with the funds from fiverr...
 
Welcome!
my account also got banned few days ago and yes its also 15 year old :D
 
They found out i wasnt 18 when i signed up for GayPal. AFTER 15 YEARS!!!!
I am really sorry for you, bro. In the last years I mentioned this each time I had the occasion: If you know you created the pp account before 18, you should create a new one and start from 0. It's not a joke, because they will ban you ASAP.

That's ridiculous, every time I read a thread about them I wonder how they're still in business.

Do you have a Payoneer ATM card you can withdraw $45 doing that
 
A number of years ago paypal banned my account because, wait for it...

My business had a similar name to another one that somebody issued a chargeback on!

They ignored him so he complained to paypal, but the prick said it was me.

I pointed out that i had never done business with the guy and paypal could see my transaction history and he was not in it. They agreed, but decided to ban me anyway!
That was Collateral damage... lol!
 
Ha! I always say if something bad happens, there is a good thing very close.

I found a job kind of. 6h per day, earning way way more then on fiverr.

Its a 9-3 but its paid very good! Thats why im pretty much up for that.

I also got all my returning customers off from fiverr and working with me directly. Which is another great thing to have!

Now i dont give a fuvk about gaypal anymore...
 
Another bad gaypal review, wonder how long they will survive still with this type of customer shitting experience
 
lol they do whatever they like to do so yeah stay away from them is a good thing recently i was reading on here they banned someone’s accounts with like somewhat $50k in that account- shizz too risky
 
That's good that you didn't lose any money, but still, why drop off something that you do (except the fact that you don't want to do - FIVERR) because PayPal made this? You can find alternatives.

This

Because Fiverr only pays out to either payoneer or GayPal. Payoneer have so high fees and is even worse.

I contacted my returning customers and will work with them without Fiverr.

I can always create a invoice for them.

Then i will switch to upwork.... And keep fiverr just to get mails and ask for direct payments....

Just get your ego out of it and open a new account bro. Seriously. I have 3 and a half paypal accounts, and i barely use any of them, and i split what few payments i receive on paypal between them. I stay small, small payments, few rare payments, nothing out of the ordinary ever, they leave me alone.

And payoneer is not worse than paypal. It is, in fact, much much better. I dont know where you got that that payo is worse than paypal. And fees? Of course payoneer fees are lower. In reality, paypal has higher fees than all of them. You got it twisted yo.

Dont throw away your fiverr trip because of paypal man. Dont be stupid.

There is another way to cash out fiverr moneys. Check out the WTB and HAF threads on the forum. Every day people are wanting to buy reviews, especially from good Fiverr accounts. Cash out like that, get paid in crypto or however you want, and make a bit of profit on the process ;)

Edit: also, khm, fuck you paypal! Youre a piece of shit! We all hate you! I wouldnt piss on you if you were on fire!
 
You should find a way to move your customers to other payment options not depending on PayPal. If you sell digital downloads or software, you can use a reliable middle-man company like Paddle.com or use 2checkout for services. With both, you can still collect PayPal payments.

It really sucks, to be honest. I learned the hard way. Had to move far away from PayPal early this year itself. They are a shit monopoly. But there are many payment gateways way better and better than them a zillion times.

Maybe I should actually be congratulating you here: https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/paypal-account-banned-congratulations.1404756/

Edit: seems you are into the Fiverr biz, then simply use Payoneer or create a new PayPal account as SG said.
