Other bank product/service Deposits and withdrawals

HelloMy name is - -, i live in - and a few months ago I opened a paypal account so I can receive funds send by a friend in -. I sent them every document they need and they activated my account. After a few transactions, each - under - $ I got an email saying I reached the transfer limit of $2500.00. They wanted more documents, which I provided again and they reactivated it again. After a few more transfers and about a month later they suspended my account and wanted me to prove my business and the items I sell, what website do I operate and more absurd questions like that. I have no company, no items to sell and I just use the account to receive money from an US citizen. I have never used the account for something else. I respectfully explained that to them but they can not understand, they keep sending me automated messages about their TOS and about me not cooperating and not telling them the truth.


They blocked my funds and the account and they now refuse to give my money, telling me I have to wait 6 months to get it!! This is outrageous! I am living a horrible dream, its impossible to talk to those people. They abuse their power and impose abusive methods like holding my funds. Please help me solve this issue as I have no one on my side! This is what i get when i login to my account!
