    PayPal Holding Money | A REAL Solution to PayPal Holding Funds!
    I wanted to make a video about PayPal holding money as there are tons of people out there, maybe even you, struggling with their funds being held by PayPal.

    Stay till the end of this video, where I will share exactly what you need to do in order for PayPal to release your funds. This has even worked on the infamous "PayPal holding funds for and after 180 days"...
    There are a TON of companies and users complaining about PayPal, PayPal holding money hostage, just holding money and how they do business.

    There are websites like screwpaypal.com, paypalsucks.com and so on dedicated to blowing the lid off how PayPal treats users and so on.
    The long and short of it all is that PayPal are bullies. They use bully tactics and most of the time, we can't do anything about it, they know it and they do not give a damn about you.
    DO NOT for all these crappy videos online showing you how to "Hack PayPal" or how to get your money back through other methods. It won't work and you'll either end up getting scammed or just make the situation worse.
    Keep your nose clean and you'll get results...
    I can help just 1 person get their money back from these cyberbullies, that makes all of this worth it.
    See, for about 6 years now I have been using PayPal. In the last 2 years alone, PayPal has processed over $1 million through 1 of my accounts.
    Heck, I even had my own personal account manager whom I used to speak with over the phone at least once per month. Things were going great. I got personalised presentations about how my account is doing, etc. Life was good.
    Until one fateful day in December of 2018...
    I opened my email and BOOM... there it was... "Your account has been permanently limited."
    My days of using PayPal was over. Forever.
    I tried opening a new account and it went well for about a month... BOOM... another email. Account permanently limited.
    During all of this, I tried finding out exactly why this happened and time and again I was told the same thing... "closed due to violating our acceptable use policy".
    I go over their Acceptable Use Policy in the video.
    Why on earth would I have an account manager, if I was doing anything dodgy?? Why?
    Here's where it gets interesting.
    After counting the days and waiting for the full 180 days... I logged into my bank, ready to withdraw the money. And so of course, I still wasn't able to withdraw MY money.
    I phoned PayPal and because I live in South Africa, I get routed to the call center in the Philipines of all places. They couldn't help and transferred me to the USA.
    Now, this happened so many times I lost count. Nobody could help me. On multiple occasions.
    I was met with arrogance and in one instance I was even told to "google it". By a supervisor. Yeah!
    The only solution I was given was to link a USA bank account to my PayPal to withdraw the money.
    Luckily I had a US bank account, but of course this didn't work either.
    If ever you're in a situation where PayPal refuses to release your funds, you simply go to a website called the Better Business Bureau.
    I opened a case with the BBB and within 1 month, a PayPal representative from the Executive Escalations department contacted me and helped me.
    The aim of this video is to help you guys out there as it's incredible how many people are being bullied and taken for a ride by PayPal... and PayPal just keeps getting away with it.
    If you ever have issues with PayPal, simply open a BBB case.
    The more people who stand up against PayPal, the better.

      There's this uploader called Beast of Ecom who I bet was paid by Paypal to act as spokesperson and say Paypal is not truly evil. He refers to them like theyre not so bad after all. SAying things like Paypal is human, Just be persistent because eventually you will get your money, giving tips on be nice in everything you and do naturally the gods will smile down and you and there will be butterfiles and fairies!
      Maaannn I've followed all these rules and made sure every transaction made on PP was legit to the T. but guesss what? I still got FU*@ed in the @$$
      This guy had "80k" frozen by the Devil, yet somehow the way he refers to Paypal feels like their BFFs! His deamenour is not someone who was screwed over on a large amount. Heck, even rich People get fired up if sombody screws them over $500. SMH I've watched every video of victims relating to Paypal limiting accounts and they all speak truthfully. Like a scorned victim rightfully so.
      So yes, he did eventually get his money back after a lenghty period of following Paypal's every order (Hitler-ish) after jumping over hoops of fire yet with no degree of certainty if it will work at all. Every waking hour you hope and pray anxiously, Im sure everyone will relate as you wait day to day for Paypal golden Nod for you to finally get the money.. Money that was 100% yours to begin with. SMHHHHH Imagine the psychological damage it brings to those who truly were in need of that money.
      Paypal holds your hard earned money, puts up an electric fence and says NO NO NO and despite the fact that they've alreaady charged you ridiculous fees at the get-go.
      My points are:
      1) The act of generating an income is never easy.
      2) When you do eventually come up with your business plan, then comes the act of performing an actual SALE. Tons of variables in that like customer buying mood, convincing the cust, competitor challenges etc etc etc
      3) After sweating it out and finally get a Sale, here comes Paypal flashing their "I can limit your account" BADGES like they the FBI!
      *** So in essence, the MONEY that I drew sweat blood tears, is not really my money???

    PayPal lures you in for a time then they hold your funds. The steps it takes to unlock your money takes you into a repetitive circle. This guy is right! They don’t do it to every single person, but enough for them to make millions. They waited until I had hundreds in sales before they struck. I don’t know why the government doesn’t shut them down. Their customer service just mocks you with sarcasm and sends you the same steps over and over. They’re simply evil. Please don’t be their next victim!

    First of all I'd like to thank you for the video. Sorry for what you and others have experienced. However, I am grateful that I had zero in my pay pal account when a lien was placed on it by the tax controller's office (I can put money in, but cannot withdraw funds.) The tax controller's office tried to collect money from me, not because money was owed, but because they claim I did not file 0 taxes, during the period in question. However, I do have records of speaking with someone and reporting 0 taxes. What's sad is that these people have no problem with misuse of your social. Since I've tried to use my gifts (writer/designer) to help others (charities etc.) I've be met with opposition. My goal is to have attorneys on board so I can effectively do what I am passionate about which is to use my gifts to provide solutions. Again thank you.

    I was scrolling through some old orders I'd placed with suppliers and found quite a few that I had not received or been refunded for, so I decided to make some refund claims via paypal. There were about 8 such orders, but I only put in claims for the most recent 3. A few weeks pass, when out of the blue, paypal basically accused me of making fraudulent claims and restricted my account. This all happened yesterday, but so far, my account is still functional. The strange thing is, paypal have twice before told me they're closing my account for reasons unknown, yet nothing ever happened; I'm hoping this will be the case this time: and do they not understand the punch in the gut terror they put people through with these threats and unjustified suspensions, or do they simply not give a damn? I know, stupid questions.

    I really think PayPal is holding the money to invest in somewhere else. It happened to a few friends of mine, who are merely transferring money to friends.

    I'm surprised you said there is nothing we can do about it ( When it comes to paypal treating theirs customers like trash). I've been a victim of that conduct as well. So let me tell you something. We the people are the ones who are empowering these high profile corporations by using their services ( Case of paypal let them manage our money). So if we as a whole aren't satisfy there are legal ways ( Not sue the company it's a waste of time), actually boycotting the company by setting a world petition against companies who don't respect us. simple let us not give them our business period. They can't survive if we as a whole decide to withdraw our business like any business how big or small their lifeblood is the customers. So never encourage these companies to get away with their disrespectful attitude because they feel they are bigger than the customers who provide them with business.

    I've just started using PayPal just a few days ago I nabbed a few clients already but Paypal's holding my money hostage. My first client isn't from the US so they told me they would hold the money and supposedly give it after 7 days of verification whatever the hell that means.
    My third client sent his payment a day ago and Paypal held it hostage again telling me that they'll release it within 1 day of delivery.
    But the real confusing part is that when my second client paid up Paypal immediately gave the funds a few minutes after and yet they still haven't given the payments from my 1st and 3rd clients. Just to add more flame to the fire they sent me an email stating that my funds will be given 21 days after I get them unless I complete their bullshit list of requirements so I am no new seller anymore.
    I mean I can smell bullshit from a mile away, man. They shroud this reasoning with "we just wanna make sure that you ain't a shady fellow" sort of deal but when in reality they just love holding up your money for whatever nefarious goals they have. I don't know anymore if I want to continue my ventures with Paypal anymore.

      Hey man. Congrats on turning 18. Those were the days. I'm 37 actually :). As for the money I've made, it's been a combo of owning a Digital Marketing Agency as well as affiliate marketing, mate. I have lost a shitton of money as well though. My advice is this...
      1. Find your passion.
      2. Find a problem, then solve it. This video is case in point. It focusses on a very big problem which I sincerely try to solve. It's on a quarter of a million views.
      3. Don't be greedy. Always give back.
      4. Read books.
      5. Don't waste your time on nonsense. Life is short and goes by in a blink of an eye.
      6. ALWAYS be honest.
      7. Be grateful.
      8. Love your friends and family. They will always be there for you, no matter what.
      9. Don't fear failure. You learn from it.
      10. NEVER give up on yourself.
      Lots of ra ra stuff, but trust me on this... oh and read this: iamru.me/just-build-a-damn-deck/
      Good luck on your journey my friend.

Because my PayPal was attached to an old hotmail account I couldn't retrieve my password. So i set up an new PayPal allowing me to sell on my eBay again. I've had my first week salw put on hold and im frustrated to the max with them. Their customer service is terrible and when you ring you don't get any answers. So i had two late payments that have actually gone through yet the bulk is on hold. I was told to ask customers to go into their PayPal and click on received item to unlock the pending. I'm still waiting. This is just theft of the highest order. Trying to raise a bit of money for Christmas and it's being kept from me.

    Once your account is permanently limited, do a complete refund to your customer so the money goes back to them. But before you do that, contact your buyer and ask them to do an alternative payment to you. Maybe even give them 5-10% off. If they trust you, they will send you the money via a bank deposit or Skrill and then you do a refund so PayPal can’t hold onto that money for 180 days anyway.
    If you don’t have a bank account linked to your limited PayPal account, you’ll never get your money back even after 180 days. I lost $100 that way. They can’t/won’t release your money even if it’s $5 or $5000.

      I sold a jumper on depop a week ago, and PayPal has my money on hold, I’ve edited tracking information even though the girl received her jumper and they still have my money on hold

    I face the holding funds for 21 days for my first transaction. I mean after all the lengthy verification and after saying that my account is “ready to accept payments”, why then hold the fund? And if need to hold, why not let us know before hand so we can decide whether to proceed with PayPal or not? And there’s opportunity cost for not having the fund that we should be entitled to, who’s responsible?

    Just happened to me. I didn't withdraw a single cent, but they are holding my 40k euros and are applying a 90 day rolling reserve at 50%, this is completely abusive.
    I'll call them first and ask them for a less strict reserve and release of half of my funds. If that doesn't work, I'll file BBB complaint.

      @@ProjectSuccessMastery Some people say they limit accounts for 90 days or more because they earn money with this for themselves. They use our money to make money on stock markets or something. Like investment. Makes sense actually. Im not surprised.

    What should I do? I am selling to customers in Germany. Like 70-80% pay with PayPal and the rest with creditcard. I am scared if I remove Paypal(who is holding 20% of every payment for 45 days) my conversion will go extremly down.

    i recently sent money to someone who did a graphic design piece for me. i sent the money and it showed up as withdrawaling $50 from my bank to pay the artist, but put it on hold so he could not put the money into the bank until i confirmed a reciept, but there is not option showing me where i can do that. after showing him i transferred the money is he still thinks i ripped him off

    The customer processed full refund after holding the amount for almost 24hours. It was reflected to my summary dashboard. Do you think I will receive the refunded amount?
