I'm Stumped!
Hello. I'm sending this email to file a complaint against PayPal. I don't have a credit card, so a friend of mine used his details to create a PayPal account for me. I just needed to make one payment of $800. I added his card to the account, and he subsequently verified it. All was fine. But when I clicked on the 'Send Money' link, and then added my recipient's email ID, and the amount ($800) and clicked OK, the following error message appeared: "You have reached a limit on your ability to send money. Please link and confirm a debit or credit card to lift this limit.". As I mentioned eariler, the card was linked and verified. This message stumped me, so I tried a few more times; no luck.
I'm buying a (used) bass guitar with this $800, and it is imperative that the money is sent within the next 6 hours. The seller will not wait beyond that.
Could someone please help me with this? I'd appreciate a reply.
Thanks,

Inappropriate?HI TImothy Andrew,
When you open a PayPal account and add your credit card, you are granted an initial sending limit until your account is Verified. To become Verified and lift your sending limit, log in to your PayPal account and click the "Unverified" link on your Account Overview page. Follow the instructions provided to get Verified.
The sending limit applied to your account is dependent upon the amount of information that can be verified before you complete the Verification process. If some information cannot be verified, you will receive a lower limit or a zero dollar limit.
Once your account is Verified, your initial sending limit only applies to those cards for which you have not entered your PayPal code. Payments sent from your account balance or cards that are linked and confirmed will not have a sending limit.
Please note that all limits are denominated in the currency of your Primary Balance. If you send funds from a currency balance other than your Primary Currency, your sending limit will be reduced by the Primary Currency equivalent of the payment amount.
