Paypal Question

Paypal are asking me to update my information and part of the info they request is business info i.e. what type of trader I am, and what type of business.

My question is I don't know what to put in the business category( there is a big list, automotive,arts and crafts collectables and so on).

My account is not suspended, I just can't close the account. LOL.

Any ideas? Anyone filled this one in before?

Thanks in advance.

    Pardon me for asking the bleeding obvious, but what type of trader are you? What type of business? :D

    Can you bypass that screen at all ? I ask because yesterday when I logged in it said I had to update my details and a screen came up asking me for my work contact details, as I don't want them recorded I just left them blank and clicked 'next' (actually I don't think it was next, maybe confirm or something), and moved on.

    No Soo I can't bypass it. It looks like you have to complete/confirm every piece of information they are looking/asking for.
