Hi @Cnrmcgraw,

 

I'm very sorry to hear about the limitation on your account that prevents the use or withdrawal of a deposit into your account. If there are steps to resolve in the Resolution Center, they can be completed to allow review to reinstate your account. If there are no steps to complete and the limitation is permanent, please contact customer service to explain that the deposit was a social security check and discuss possible options.

 

To contact customer service, please click Contact at the bottom of the PayPal website for available options, or reach out by PM on Facebook or DM on Twitter.

 

I'm very sorry for the inconvenience.

 

Olivia

I read this and your similar post. PayPal didn’t take your check but they apparently took the money from your bank account and that was your check. Or your check was deposited to your bank account and transferred to your PayPal balance.

I thought they weren’t authorized to take money from a bank account. 

Your story needs more details. If you transferred money to your PayPal account and owed them money, the BBB can’t help you.
