    Paypal just froze my account. *sigh*

    They've got great timing. I just dumped all my funds into my bank account, so they froze $0.00. They're still bastards.

                  It doesn't cost anything to dump, so I don't let my account get over a couple hundred dollars, usually less.

                    We'll see. The request was submitted on the 23rd. It's not in my online bank statement yet, but it's not showing as pending in Paypal either. Tomorrow should tell.

                            Just a little over $200. Not much, but it would be the principle.

                                  If you still have a paypal account, the best way to keep it is to buy a lot of stuff on ebay.

                                  As crazy as it sounds, from what I heard that can save you if you're borderline.

                                        They froze mine on May 26th, I took away 3 pictures they disputed on the same day, signed the papers and they said it will take 3 days to get to me. Today iti si exactly 2 months later: After numerous long phonecalls overseas and 10's of emails, nothing happened yet

                                        They should get sued big time. Do I get interest for the money in there?

                                          They closed me stating I used it for an adult website -- I didn't since I have a merchant account -- but my email was that of an adult website. They said 6 weeks and I'd have my money back.

                                          4 days later the check was here.

                                              That didn't work for one of my paypal accounts. Over 500+ transactions/purchases and they still closed it on only 3 adult related transactions.. lmao. Oh well

                                                      Today they froze mine as well

                                                      However they do not suspect me of adult - yet

                                                      Just need to send more info because I went over some accumulated transfer limits

                                                        Paypal could have a nice discrimination suit on their hands at some point. Not processing for adult transactions is one thing, shutting someone down because they are using an adult related domain name in their account is another.

                                                        They're not the same thing, and Paypal doesn't seem to see this.

                                                        Spend you some brain.

                                                            Paypal is a great idea with bad execution. I wonder how much money they lose a year by not doing adult? But just make sure you have a legit email in their eyes and if you do adult transactions make sure there is nothing adult in the items description once it gets to the paypal point. You should be fine.

It's not just porn mongers anymore. And at least we know about it, many people I know who had their acc. closed didn't even know it could happen...
