I had a paypal account for about 1 1/2 years; I used it on a regular basis to pay out clients. Well business was going pretty well and I was making some good-sized deposits. Right when it hit the $15,000 mark paypal instantly froze the money on deposit.

They wanted all sorts of crazy things, like credit statements from the card that was on file (I had the card reissued so I didn't have any statements from that card). They also wanted gas bill, water bill, and bank account statements. I lived in an apt at the time so I didn't have either of those. They refused to give the money back!

I called up wells fargo and they refunded the money to me right away, they said they were going to get in contact with paypal to get the money back. Not sure if they ever did or not
