Paypal Pickle

I have a new paypal account to receive money from ebay sales. This is not through choice but you cant list on ebay without accepting paypal.
Anyway, I have been having a clear out and made a few hundred pounds. I have verified the account but it was under review? Now they are asking for photo Id, proof of address and supplier information. I don't have a supplier?
I also spent most of the money on ebuyer, but I have returnded my order. As I paid by paypal I have said that the account is closed so can i be paid in another way. Can I receive a cheque instead? Am I entitled to the money back in another way? i dont want the funds going back to paypal as i can't withdraw it and they are likely to lock or close the account as i havent provided them with info.

Hi mr jma
Sorry i dont know the ansa to this but just wanted to say i hope you sorted!
I hope its not the start of another nightmare for you0 -
It's probably because you've recieved an unusually large sum of money in a short space of time. They probably think it's a scam.
I'm sorry, I'm not sure what you should doUndergrad law student. Take my advice with a pinch of salt! :rotfl:0 -
