Consumer Narrative

I called PayPal about my account and how I could not access it. Im no longer able to access my email and have changed my phone number. I informed PayPal about the issue and was told there is no way to access my account and they can not provide me any further assistance that without getting into the email my funds would not be able to withdraw and that they would keep my money indefinitely without any further options. I asked them to send me a check or change my information but they refused and said my account is limited and the only way is for me to get into my old email account
