Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
My account was closed with XXXX. They said it was too much activity on my account when all I did was have friends send money to me. I had no business account but a Personal Account with PayPal. I have called several times to try to get my Payapl back but the customer service representative said that I had reached my limit with trying with the Resolution team which is fine with me. I called PayPal a couple of times to try to get my {$1200.00} back with no prevail. They keep saying I have to wait 120 to 180 days to get my money which is not fair. I have bills to pay and I can not afford to wait this long. I am a single mother and I work hard for my money just for PayPal to say wait for 120 days to 180 days is not fair at all. I need my money to Pay my bills. I did nothing illegal. If I did, I would understand and accept responsibility but I haven't did anything illegal. I have receipts showing proof that I went to XXXX and added my own money to PayPal. The thing is my account was active and open with Paypal because I checked my Paypal account before I left home and the time I added my money to PayPal from XXXX, shortly after my account got blocked. If I knew this I would have never added my money to PayPal. Why wait until I add my money to PayPal and then block me permanently. This is not right. All I'm asking for is my money to be returned to my bank account. All of my bank account information is in Paypal. I don't think it's fair. I really do need my money. My plans was not to file a XXXX  complaint but no one wants to work with me at Paypal to give me my money back when I have proof that I have added the funds. I have receipts from XXXX showing that I added my moneu to Paypal. Please give me my {$1.00}, XXXX back to me so I can pay my bills. Thank you.
