Hey thank you so much for this, this seems so tedious and troublesome but I'll try to give it a go but here are some few questions I'll like to ask:

-Make sure that you have Clean out cookies & temporary internet files.
-Change computer name & IP when you will login.

Does this mean that I do not have to go over to a friend's house to use his computer to make a new PayPal account? And when you said cleaning cookies, I understand it's deleting all history, clearing cookies, history in my firefox browser right? What do you mean by change a computer name? Changing IP means I'll have to call up my ISP for this right?

-Make sure that you NEVER go directly to ebay or PayPal to register a new account ... Browse the internet a while then search for an ebay or paypalbanner and click on it !
-Use email to register something like your name,last name , example: name John Smith > prefered email: johnsmith@gmail/hotmail/yahoo or other...

PayPal banner means those sites which offer you the PayPal method? I don't quite get this, can you link me to one of those sites? Thanks.
Okay say for example my email is jeremyirvine@hotmail.co.uk, is it okay?

-Never open any emails sent to you from eBay or Paypal (Members or Auctions) regardless of what it says in the message title.If you need to check if you have any question about an auction item, check it only at eBay’s site itself.If you click onto a link from one of these e-mails, they will catch you from the use of this hidden script.

Roger it. Big mistake I always made, I guess everyone does this too.

-Add your Credit Card for verify your Paypal account ( Dont add your CC in registration page, you have to add your CC/BA after you created your account)
-Dont try to add your old CC or BA, also dont add name that was used before, and phone number & address must be diferent from you old account if you had one.

Okay I got the first one but for the second one, cause I have 3 different credit cards. One is of course already blacklisted by PayPal so I can't use it. I still have the other 2. But problem over here is the name registered on all 3 of my credit cards are the same name, Jeremy Irvine, that is. How is it even possible for me to register a credit card without using my REAL name? So I have to use someone else credit card for this?

-After you have verified your paypal account wait again for at least 7 days or more before using it,
after that time the 1st transaction should be you spending and not receiving, make a few small
transactions for physical items and NOT Digital items such as ebooks. DO NOT try and do this by using
another account that you own or have access to, ie: Sending a money request from another account
to your newly created account, this will get your account flagged.
-As for receiving payments DO NOT withdraw the money right away, wait at least 10 days before doing
so and DO NOT withdraw all of the funds, leave at least %15 of the money in there or spend a little on
a few transactions.

Thanks for this, I'll take note.

-Try to receive payments from only verified Paypal users as if a buyers account is flagged it can get
your account limited, we have seen this happen so many times, do this especially for big transactions.
If you intend making large transactions wait at least 32 days before
-Phone Support: Don't deal with the person who answers the call, however. They are the lowest level of support personnel, and they really don't have any authority to fix your problem. But if you speak with them and they uphold the freeze on your account, it makes it that much harder to overturn.

Thank you so much for this too, I'll take note too and agreed PayPal Support is probably the worst out there, they are just like dead zombies.

Ask to speak to a supervisor, and be persistent about it if they try to handle the issue themselves. But don't be rude or threatening, just be calm but persistent.

Would this actually help? I actually did try a few times to ask them to transfer me to their supervisor but they keep saying it's not available and those crap.

YOUR HOME ADDRESS:
Your home address should be changed. No, you do not actually have to move to do this, but you need your address to look a little different. Just write it out differently. For instance, if you live in an apartment (apt) you can put suite or unit # or number instead of writing apartment number. Alternatively, if your street name is that of a number spell the number out instead of writing the number itself. You can also obtain a P.O. Box. Here is a smart way to use a PO Box if you decide to use.

All PO Boxes can receive mail at the post office street address. What I mean is, lets say you have P.O. Box #45 at your post office, and the address of the post office itself is 123 Main Street. An alternate address you can use would be 123 Main Street #45.

Okay this is the part I don't get it. Because I live in the UK so our postal code goes something like BS98, how can I change this?


Lastly, I'll like to say thank you so much for even bothering to read all of my queries and I hope you can advise me on this, thank you so much for your awesome long post by the way.

Yep, clean ALL history

No, Computer name is Computer name > IP is IP
example my Computer name: http://i.imgur.com/nPDX4.png

You can use diferent name but you MUST use last name that you have in your CC!! [because paypal looks only in CC last name]
