If your PayPal account has been suspended, you could find yourself cut off from accessing the funds in your account for 180 days. You may also not be able to receive any money or make payments. Read on to learn how to appeal your suspension.
A suspension of your account does not necessarily mean that you have violated any of PayPal's terms of service; however, if the company has reason to suspect that you have, or that someone has accessed your account without your permission, it may suspend your account to protect everybody involved.
PayPal will suspend your account if it suspects you are using the account for:
1. Anything that violates any state, federal, or international law.
2. Buying or selling drugs or drug paraphernalia.
3. Buying or selling stolen goods.
4. The promotion of violence, discrimination, or hate.
5. The purchase of obscene items.
6. Copyright violations.
7. The purchase of firearms or ammunition.
8. Anything that shows the personal information of other people.
9. Anything that supports pyramid schemes or other get-rich-quick schemes.
10. Anything associated with off-shore banking.
11. Anything involved with refinancing credit card debt.
12. Anything associated with currency exchanges.
13. Bribery.
14. Fraud.

You will hear back from PayPal after they have made their decision.

GetHuman has been working for over 10 years on sourcing information about big organizations like Comcast in order to help customers resolve customer service issues faster. We started with contact information and fastest ways to reach a human at big companies. Particularly ones with slow or complicated IVR or phone menu systems. Or companies that have self-serve help forums instead of a customer service department. From there, we realized that consumers still needed more detailed help solving the most common problems, so we expanded to this set of guides, which grows every day. And if you spot any issues with our What do I do if my Xfinity TV or internet is out? guide, please let us know by sending us feedback. We want to be as helpful as possible. If you appreciated this guide, please share it with your favorite people. Our free information and tools is powered by you, the customer. The more people that use it, the better it gets.
After helping consumers for 10 years, we realized that you need an impartial, live person you can talk to about comparing the various TV, cable, Internet and phone plans in your area- somebody who can compare the best deals across telecom providers.
