The first step is to unlock paypal account. When you attempt to log in with a locked account, you will be informed that your account has been locked. This, however, is not always practicable and is always time intensive. Furthermore, there is no guarantee that your account will be unlocked.If you prefer, you can contact PayPal's automated customer assistance system, which will usually link you to a customer service agent. Respond genuinely to all of their inquiries. To identify you, they may inquire when you last made a withdrawal or validate your account.
