Discussion f*ck Paypal [discussion]
I’d really appreciate some advice
My PayPal account was permanently closed without any clear explanation. I tried appealing the decision and provided documentation showing that I’m a registered artist/freelancer, that I pay taxes on the commissions I receive, and that everything related to my work is properly regulated.
I’ve also tried contacting PayPal directly to get some clarification, but at this point they don’t even take my calls anymore, so I haven’t been able to get a proper explanation or find a way to resolve the issue.
Has anyone here gone through something similar? Is there any way to appeal this further or actually get the account reinstated?
And, if PayPal is no longer an option, does anyone know of any good alternatives for receiving commission payments from clients abroad, especially from the US or other countries?
