Dont count on getting all your money back either. There have been some people that say they have only gotten 50% or less.

Ask your customer to dispute the payment and pay you with a check or something

i can't believe paypal is able to hold funds, they should close the account and send a cheque or something.

its plain theft.

As long as your follow their rules to get the account cleared you will only have to fax all of your personal info to them 5 or 6 times before they actually say they got it.

Hope you have a fax machine, if not then expect several trips to Kinkos.

start there. Call up everybody in every department at least once a day and ask why your account was closed, what rules you broke, when they expect it to be up, and if you can talk to a supervisor. If they l et you talk to him ask him the same questions. Call everyday and within a few weeks your account will be back to normal ;)

With Epassporte (www.epassporte.com) why are still people using PayPal? - those paranoid fucks has tons of security measures (which is good to some extend but so much shit that they use means they don't have effecient protection) and high fees, and limited number of countries that can use them.. They SUCK!

Open an epass account, it's great!

Just closed me too. I don't even have a site. I just receive affiliate payments from 2 sites. Guess I will have to change the way they pay me.
