Monster's Formspring So on 9/15 PayPal decided that it suddenly didn't trust my identity despite the fact that I've had an active account since 12/2007. They also failed to properly respond when I gave them the personal information they asked for, and then when I called them tonight they decided it was TOTALLY NOT ENOUGH and asked me to send a copy of my driver's license and bank statement, which I have done. Hopefully this will be resolved soon. Until it is, though, all commission work is coming to a grinding halt because I really, really don't want to be in a position where a payment gets horribly tangled up.
LOL THE END.
LOL THE END.

There's always the option of getting an AlertPay account. Dunno if you know of it or not, just trying to be helpful.

OP
Thanks for the link, I'll look into it. Never heard of that service before!

There was big buzz a while back, then it died down. I think PayPal has remained in as much use as it has just by how many people have it.

Alertpay has some more fees and is a little weird, but maybe a little more friendly to the type of work we do.

Paypal has a company stance that everyone is a liar and or thief until further notice. :)

yeah, I'm in that same boat and as I don't get any bills or anything, I cannot provide proof of address... x.x and they got money of mine in the account!
