Hello, I have recently started selling on PayPal and after receiving 3 payments totaling ~1k USD, upon the forth payment of ~300 USD the payment was placed on hold for 21 days, the account wasn't limited, just the payment was placed on hold. Now, I am considering switching to my other account which is a personal account, but is it years old and more established however, I am concerned that since both of these account share the same bank account and debit card, they will be linked, and my incoming payments will be held also. I should note that I have never received similar incoming payments on the second account yet, it has been strictly personal use.

Has anyone else ever faced something like this, and do you know if one account is encountering holds on incoming payments, will your other account that shares the same bank/debit card encounter the same problem? Any insight is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
 
Yup, it will definitely get some holds also, as they will be linked easily.
What platform were you selling? You need to ship goods or something?
 
Honestly, if you can afford it, just wait the 21 days. It's not like it was limited for 90, and if you get your personal account involved it will most likely get the funds held as well.
