Were you able to get your funds out before they closed it?

They can't just steal the funds, but they might try to refund it or delay payout.

I was under the impression that any funds in your account were the legal properly of PayPal, and your account functions as company credit.  Thus, their common practice of holding funds indefinitely for even the smallest TOS violation (as long as their PR doesn't suffer).

This is why I always keep my balance as low as possible.

The details might depend on the country, but they are surely acting as the trustee for someone in that situation, either the account holder or the original funds-holder.

I mean, you could try to get a response from PayPal support and asking why it was closed, and even see if you could get back open. If not you could try other online pay services like Google Wallet, Apple Pay, Western Union, and/or Ko-Fi just to name a few, but just be sure to read their ToS and user agreements as so you don't have them close on you suddenly either.

the problem is not the money it was there, they let me take it out after 180 days, but I have to keep receiving payments to buy food and pay the bills here

I know an artist or two on Deviantart that accepts payments via Western Union. Dunno how viable that would be for you, but I thought I'd bring it up just in case.

I hope sooner rather than later.  Commiss.io helped another artist out tremendously when this same thing occurred.

The only thing you can probably do is to contact them, maybe via phone, and try to sort things out.
The most important thing is probably to find out what actually happened.

If that does not work you will need to look for an alternative.
Assuming you are from the US maybe regular bank transactions would be a way to receive the money from US customers.

Other than that I don't think there is much you could do.

Ko-fi pays the donations via PayPal, so that may not be a good option.

Next time don't mention work for NSFW, either from you or your commissioner.

But I always do that

This could be the main reason you're getting banned.  They log every single note from a transaction and I think they even scan them for certain words. Just send an invoice to the person and never give out your paypal to anyone.

The weird part is I always used to do invoices , and empty notes = (
Whippy

Oh really? So, no nobody ever sent you a note along with it?

Agree, it would be important to tell your clients not to remark anything in their transaction.  Remark her in private would be better.

I'd go with Venmo. That one isn't too hard to set up or use.

I know an artist who uses Wave Accounting, but I'm unsure if it works on Brazil.

What does this page show for you Launny? https://pay.google.com/
Looks like it works for phones in Brazil to scan your bank card at least.
