Hi there, I am a seller on eBay. Recently my PayPal account was limited permanently without good reason. I have tried calling and reasoning with them but they just keep sending me the same generic message, refusing to remove the limitation. Has anyone experienced something like this? In the meantime, I have set up an Internet merchant account so that my customers can pay via credit card. So far, I have found that I am paying less fees and have not lost any customers. Furthermore I do not run the risk of PayPal freezing my account for no good reason and experiencing major cash flow problems. However, I still need PayPal to remove he limitations so that my funds can be released. They want to hold my money for half a year. Once my money has been released, I will close my PayPal account and just use the Internet merchant option for receiving payments. It is much safer and the fees are not as high as PayPal.
