PayPal can be a pain in the butt!

Published on Wealthy Affiliate — a platform for building real online businesses with modern training and AI.

I have been a member of WA for a while and have seen a steady increase in my internet marketing income :)

I received on 1st November (This is how we brits do the date) a notification of my WA affiliate commission. It was quite a handsome sum that put glee into my heart. I checked my PayPal account and saw the money.

I went through the process to changing the dollars into pounds and requested that the funds be transferred to my business bank account. (Since Brexit in the UK I have noted that commissions in dollars give you more pounds than was the case before the referendum. Have other UK members noticed this ?)

I then received a message to say that I had reached my PayPal withdrawal limit and that they wanted tons of info about me and my business before they would release the money! My initial reaction after a busy day was " For Fxxks Sake". I suppled the information and my funds were released.

When I looked back on it I realised that what had happened was in fact a very positive sign. PayPal has recognised that the traffic of payments in and out has reached a level where they are interested in my account. I have to some small extent arrived.

This post is not about what I have done individually, but a message to you all especially those that are fairly new to WA that it works.

It is not a get rich quick scheme, but a viable way to make money online.

Have a great weekend :)
