Oh this is such a pain in the ass lol
That's what eventually led to my first paypal to become permanently limited. x.x
Just scan like.. your drivers license or something and email it to them.
I wake up to this:
Provide information about your account. Why?
You have 14 days to resolve before your account becomes restricted.
Steps to Provide More Information
Apr 22, 2013 Photo ID
To help confirm your identity, please send us a copy of your photo ID that shows your name and address.
Apr 22, 2013 Proof of Address
To confirm your address, please send us a copy of a bill that shows your name and address. Helpful documents include a utility bill, a cell phone bill, an insurance bill, or a tuition bill.
Apr 22, 2013 Provide Proof Of SSN
Provide documentation that shows your Social Security number. Helpful documents include a copy of your Social Security card, a pay stub, or a government-issued document.
My account isn't restricted, and it still functions, but seriously paypal? You have my bank account, what more do you wantttttttt?
Anyways, if anyone has done this before...
Do I have to like scan pictures in? -.-
And also, I don't have any bills that come to me, so can I use like a check stub? o.o
All my tuition bills are online...I guess I could do that lol.

What's my definition of success?
Creating something no one else can
Being brave enough to dream big
Grindin' when you're told to just quit
Giving more when you got nothin' left

lol I don't even know what my old one looks like.
They just kinda stopped replying to me. I sent them the stuff they asked for and they told me I was permanently limited after that.. idk why. I tried to appeal it and they pretty much told me to fuck off xD
This was back in like.. 2010. I just waited the 180days and then withdrew my balance. It was a glorious day indeed when I could finally access my 6k I had locked up for half a year!
And I would probably mail them a copy of your license, and then if they get back to you, just ask what else you need to do. As long as you show some effort, I think they will work with you. You could always call them too, sometimes that works.

Yeah their customer service is really a toss up lol
I have heard people say that they call up and get great help.. I have never once had that experience.
When all this shit was originally going down, they used to call me at like, 4am, 1am, all these stupid times.
Ugh, they used to piss me off so much. I finally, this year was able to make a paypal account and not get auto-limited.
But I wish you the best of luck. Hopefully you have a more pleasant experience than I did!

Personally I wouldn't mess with anything online without calling someone... if you get someone who knows what they are doing they should be able to do things with you (say you need to supply DL, hopefully the person will tell you this and have you scan it while on the phone and process it right then and there.) Just be patient on the phone and be firm but polite on what you need.
Wow...that's so lame. Even after you've linked your bank account? Seems like using Paypal is a lot more of a hassle than I thought. All I've ever used it for was Ebay purchases. +_+ Hope everything works out for you.
