See email reply below Hello again, Thank you for completing the account verification.

I have escalated your request for a limit increase to our specialists.

We do our best to complete all account reviews within 4-5 business days, though this may sometimes take longer depending on the case volume were experiencing. 
Limits are calculated by our automated system, which is something were constantly working on improving. Limits are adjusted dynamically by an algorithm using only the information available to us at the time. This sometimes results in temporary limit decreases for our good customers. 
We have these limits in place due to the irreversible nature of digital currency payments. Coinbase is a large target for scammers using stolen bank accounts, cards, etc., so we have to put in these types of measures to protect our company and the community. Improving this aspect of our product is a top priority for us, and Im sorry that your account was affected by this. 
If your limits are increased, you will receive a separate email notification of the change. 
I hope this helps explain our limits structure. Please know that we very much appreciate your patience with us while we review your account.
