For those who have the same issue but can't solve it. I've just received precise info related to this issue, tho I doubt it will solve anything, it is worth trying. If you get this error, you should wait 72 hours for the system to "refresh" (for whatever that means). DO NOT try logging it before 72 hours expire since it locks your account again and again. This means even if you try 3 hours before 72 hours expire, you will be locked again for another 72. So, If man I talked to at PayPal can be trusted (I see no reason why wouldn't), please wait 72 hours and then try again. Yes, 72 hours is long time if you are in the middle of work, like I am with my project, but yes, you should wait. P.S. I've made a mistake of adding my number to other account since business will not be conducted through my account (I have a business account but it won't be used since legally other businesses will take care of payments and purchases). If you have done the same thing, you should know - never ad the same phone number to different accounts. I know you think about doing it because it is more convenient, but it will be the reason for you being locked out of at least one account. I made that mistake, not knowing this would be such an issue.
