I am not the seller, and my account was blocked because I received a refund from the seller.

I purchased servers from Crunchbits LLC on February 1st and February 5th of this year. In November, they issued a statement saying that the servers I purchased could not be renewed, and due to policy changes, a unified refund would be processed. I applied for a refund, but the email I registered with Crunchbits LLC was different from my PayPal email. On November 30th, I received an email (different from my PayPal email), and after adding the email, I accepted the payment and added it to my balance. On December 3rd, I received an email notifying me that my account was at risk. I logged into my account and submitted an explanation, but I urgently needed to use PayPal for Black Friday shopping. So, I filed disputes for two payments as unauthorized transactions (there were no other suitable options), with a similar explanation (it was a refund, not a sale of goods). Today, I received an email notifying me of a complete account restriction, and I hope the community can help me.

Thank you for your reply. I would like to know why, after I submitted an explanation, my account was not just restricted but permanently banned. How can I check for any related explanations regarding the ban?

Paypal do not give you an exact reason, they just direct you to the user agreement or acceptable use policy. I guess having a reason wouldn't make any difference if they have permanently banned you.
