I’m trying to get something done and in order to get it done I need to have access to my PayPal account because I need to buy something that I can only buy using my PayPal account.
But because I tried to buy it PayPal froze my account. I logged into my PP account and saw that I had to go through some further account checking process because I had upgraded to a business account but hadn’t done any actual business with it,yet. So I dutifully tried to confirm my location using their confirm phone number steps.
I had my cell attached to my PP account but apparently all you crooks with cell phones are ripping folks off right and left with your cellphones and PP accounts ( I’m not devious enough to know how, not being in the possession of a crafty criminal mind). Luckily, we have a landline.
I added the landline number and was given a code.When PP called me I was instructed to enter the code into the phone and hang up.
I entered the code, hung up and clicked continue as per the instructions. But somehow it wasn’t accepted. Now the only way to confirm my location is to wait 7-9 business days for a letter from PP containing another confirmation code.
I appreciate that PP wants to protect its customers but Lord Almighty,is there not a better way?
I do not have the luxury of waiting on a letter for 9 business days.The project I am working on has a deadline.
