We run a small business doing around $20–25k a month as a mix of local/online business, with the vast majority of our customers paying us via Paypal invoice. Out of nowhere, PayPal froze a little over $15,000 of our money and flagged it for a “risk review.” No warnings, no chargebacks, just an email saying the funds would be held for up to 180 days.

Thus far, we’ve sent them some invoices, proof of delivery, and client emails, which is what they’ve asked, but so far we have no response on a decision or how long it will have to wait.

If we can’t get access to the funds, there’s a chance that we won’t be able to pay some bills for next month. Has anyone dealt with this and have a solution for expedited release?
