I've started to use a French bits seller on Ebay recently that does things a bit differently, aka no combined shipping but a full refund of the shipping costs if buying over a certain amount. All good there.
However.....
This has been my second purchase from him, I pay, he pays back quite a large sum, and then Paypal locks it for review. First one took them 4 days to review, 2nd one is still under review 2 weeks in and now my account has just been frozen by Paypal for suspicious activity. No link in that email and when I log in I get a warning that it is locked/under review (security checks out, no phishy links, all green).
I've checked the payments and withdrawals and see nothing suspicious, they all check out.
Problem is now I want to change the security questions asap, but I can't as my wife has the creditcard so I have to grind my teeth and wait, but I assume that will be fixed later today. Password I manage to change anyway.
But then what? How long till they decide everything is ok? Days, weeks? This account is vital for my hobby and has quite a bit of money in it. Dammit.
