I'm very angry and felt stupid now. They limited my account twice within two months! Is there any safer transfer methods beside paypal? I know you might suggesting just used Bitcoin for transfer directly, but I also need some kind of safety mechanism for avoided frauds. Are there any corresponding solutions base on Bitcoin? Any recommends and opinions? Thanks!

Why would you log in from a proxy?  Is your account verified?

It's preinstall/preset by my firefox and I forgot switch it off when I log in. About account verified, yes it has been verified. Or I need to "verified" it again or by other method? I'm stupid in these procedures, though I'll check it if I can log in latter. Thanks for your suggest.

I have had funds held a number of times but got them when I was supposed to in the end.  This is with a 100% feedback record and no chargebacks of any kind.  I sell often but it only happens on larger amounts, usually over $250.

Yes.. I think your right, because my transfer amounts was larger than $250. After I reset my password it's no problem for log in at present. Thank for your helped! I can pay attention to my next thorny difficult problems now.

What country are you in?  PayPal has different terms of service in different countries and that affects what is required to get any restrictions on your account lifted.

All I can say is that this is Bitcoin. I don't believe it until I see six confirmations.

They seem troublesome in general i nearly lost a pair of 5770 a few months ago because they decided to freeze the account for suspicious activity, perhaps bitbird it would be in your best intrest to find another method of paying your service provider.

If you found that funny or something i said useful i always appreciate spare change

Yes! If these "freeze" proved to be permanent and will be refund by paypal I'll send all my payment by BTC to you or any other services providers who accepted BTC from the next time.
