That is typical Paypal bullshit.
they did the same thing to me a few years ago.
There is not much you can do they will hold your money.
They are not governed by the same laws as banks but if you got a good lawyer you might be able to sue for not having good cause to put a hold on your account and for creating a hardship and loss of potential income and business deals.
You could even do this without council if you know how.
read your PP agreement and see if you can find a way in.
otherwise your dead in the water on the 3 grand for the next 180 days
P.S. i never leave anything in my PP accounts ever it just gives them the chance to hold it or keep it.

Live and learn next time cover your ass.
I never use Paypal for any transaction over $300.00. Escrow.com works well for big payments and they will wire the funds into your bank account upon completion of a transaction.
If you know an attorney, I would get him to send Paypal a demand letter requesting your money while explaining the situation. Never hurts to lawyer up, as long as you're not paying huge legal fees..

For indian paypal users, they cannot receive any amount more than $500 at one time. also they cannot use paypal funds to send money, they have to use their credit card to pay through paypal. This is because Indian Reseve bank has made very strict rules.
Just one thing, does this $1k limit transaction paypal also holds for verified business account. I have a business account.

I just went thru the same exact thing earlier this week. My GF is a professional poker player and sold some of her shares for the WSOP Main event and had people paypal her the money via my account. Well, paypal limited my account (7 years good standing) for this and basically told me it's closed for good. (Funds for any type of gambling violates the TOS) Needless to say, it's been a huge hassle. As for holding your money, here are some resources to look at that tell you how to deal with it.
The 2nd link will tell you exactly who to contact and what to say to help PP moved a little quicker in getting you your funds back.
Good luck.

For how big of a payment does paypal put this limit for a personal account? I mean what's the minimum money which when received in bulk leads to freezing of account?

It's a verified personal (or premium), not a business account
I sent them all the docs they need.
Merchant account from paypal too?
I don't know the exact reason as they said they are afraid of customer charge back but the fact is my customer contacted them and confirm the legitimacy of the transaction. They have other reasons, maybe
I promise
Last time I received $450 to my account without a problem. I'm not sure about lawyers thing because they are not very popular here.
Thanks mate, sure I will make more than that. This problem cannot beat me.
Hey,
I didn't read the whole thread but my advice is DON'T GIVE UP.
Fuck PayPal, who are they to dictate where YOUR money goes?
My friend has the same problem. He got limited. He provided proof, a shit tonne of proof. And they kept denying him for absolute bull shit reasons. Since I was the one doing all the work trying to his account unlocked on his behalf, I got sick of their shit and crap fucking excuses.
When I had told myself I will re-send in ID just ONE MORE TIME and they STILL DENIED IT I called in to PayPal the following day.
I had the recorder going and when the lady answered the phone I laid it all out for her. I asked her what her name was and then informed her that I was recording the phone call (coincidentally I was being treated like a king at this point).
I told her that I had sent in numerous proofs of ownership of the account (speaking on behalf of my friend at this time) and all of the reasons they were denying me for were invalid. I told her this process had been going on for over a week with no resolution.
As such, I informed here that I am giving them 72hours (could have been less/more can't remember exactly) to review all information provided and to release the funds. If they do not release the funds then I am taking all of the email proof + phone call recording to small claims court. I told her the date I would be lodging the complaint and I gave her the court location/name. I told her to note this stuff down.
The next morning, account was unlocked and money ready to go.
From now on, that is the approach I am taking with them
