Since you posyted this question in the Linden Dollar category I think you may be asking about your ability to buy & sell Lindens.

LindeX™ Exchange: Billing and Trading Limits

Why there are billing and trading limits

These limits exist so that we can better accommodate the needs of our Residents while mitigating our fraud risk.

Your current billing and trading limits

If you're logged in your current limits are highlighted below.

How buyer's or seller's fees relate to billing and trading limits

The buyer's and seller's fees on the LindeX™ exchange are not related to billing and trading limits, they are fixed and everyone is subject to the same fee schedule. Only the rolling 24 hour and rolling 30 day limits vary.

How to request review of your limits

You may request a review of your account to increase your limits. Please visit the support system and submit a ticket.

Select Billing -> LindeX™ Billing and Trading Limits Review Request

We'll review your request and get back to you within 5 business days.

What is considered during a typical limits review

Typically we are looking at your LindeX™ usage and your payment history.

Limits

Notes:

• 24 hour and 30 day limits are computed on a rolling basis.
• The buy limit summarizes and restricts market and limit buy usage of the LindeX™ exchange.
• The sell limit summarizes and restricts market and limit sell usage of the LindeX™ exchange.
• The purchase limit summarizes all US$ billing activity that was not fulfilled from a credit on your US$ account balance. The purchase limit restricts all nonrecurring US$ billing activity that can not be fulfilled from a credit on your US$ account balance.
• "Days" in the New Resident limits description refers to days since first billing transaction with Linden Lab.

Bri,

What Virtual World do you think you are in?

SecondLife doesn't have Resident Levels. All we have is a 2 tier membership plan.

Free Account Membership & Premium Account Membership.

from http://community.secondlife.com/t5/English-Knowledge-Base/Accounts-overview/ta-p/700019

This article describes the three different types of Second Life accounts. Manage your Second Life account on the web at https://secondlife.com/my/account/.

Account types

There are three types of Second Life accounts: basic, premium, and Concierge.

Basic

A basic account is completely free. With a basic account you can:

• Own estates or Private Regions.
• Rent land anywhere, depending on the landowner's renting preferences.
• Have a covenant agreement on Private Regions or estates owned by other Residents.
• Submit support cases for a limited set of problems.

However, with a basic account you cannot:

• Own land on the mainland.
• Access live chat.

One person can have multiple free basic accounts, subject to the alt account policy.

Premium

A premium account requires a  monthly fee.  

With a premium membership you can:

• Own land on the mainland, including a Linden Home.
• Get free exclusive virtual goods
• Have access to premium sandboxes
• Submit support cases for an expanded set of problems.
• Initiate live chat sessions with customer support.
• Get a weekly stipend of Linden dollars.  For more information, see Linden dollars (Getting your premium account stipend).

For more information, see Premium membership.

Signup bonus

When you register a premium account, you receive a one-time signup bonus of L$1000 in approximately 45 days.

Concierge

Any account that owns an estate, pays for an estate, or pays tier for more than half a region's worth of mainland parcels qualifies as a Concierge account.

With a Concierge account, you also have access to a special live chat area and phone number through the support portal. 

It is possible to have a basic account and still qualify for Concierge service.  Basic account holders can own estates and Private Regions, the setup and monthly costs for which are billed separately from land on the mainland (which can be owned only by premium and Congierge account holders). A basic account that satisfies the requirements for Concierge service described above qualifies as a Concierge-level Resident.

Extended support

Linden Lab offers extended support at no additional charge to Concierge Residents with monthly Private Region maintenance fees of $5000 and over. Those who qualify will be added automatically to extended support. If you transfer or abandon regions and are no longer billed the minimum monthly amount, you will be removed automatically from extended support. In addition to existing Concierge benefits, extended support membership includes:

• Accelerated ticket response — 24 hour response and average 48 hour resolution for most issues.
• Discounted island (Private Region) rental.

As always, you can contact Linden Lab by opening a support case; with a premium account, you can use live chat from the Support Portal.

Benefits of premium membership

Premium membership provides the following benefits:

• Your own private Linden Home
• Linden dollar rewards
• Exclusive virtual goods
• Premium-only sandboxes
• Other benefits, including live chat support, the right to own mainland in popular areas, and immediate access to adult-only areas.

Upgrading to a premium account

To upgrade from basic to premium membership:

1. Log into the Second Life website.
2. On the left side of the screen, click Premium Membership. 
3. The Change Membership Plan screen opens, displaying a chart of Membership plans and prices.
4. Select Premium (choose from Monthly, Quarterly, or Annual billing options).
5. Click Save Changes. Your new plan becomes effective at your next billing date.

Note: Accounts which upgrade from basic to premium get a bonus of L$1000 in approximately 45 days and receive a weekly stipend of $L300 and a 512 square meter premium tier bonus.  You may only receive the L$1000 upgrade bonus once per account.

Linden Homes

Linden Homes are ready-to-move-in homes that belong to a themed community and are available only to premium account members.

Note: Linden Homes are available only to users at least 18 years old.

For more information on Linden Homes, see:

• Overview of Linden Homes
• Linden Home FAQ
• Linden Home reference guide

Linden dollar rewards

As a premium member,  you get a sign-up bonus and a weekly stipend of Linden dollars.

Sign-up bonus

When you register for a premium account, you get a sign-up bonus of L$1,000, deposited directly into your Second Life account once your premium membership has been active for 45 consecutive days.

Weekly Linden dollar rewards (stipend)

As a premium member, you receive a weekly stipend of $L300, whether you log in or not. Stipends are paid every week by an automated process that runs on Tuesdays (PT).

Payments are based on information gathered from the database as of the preceding Monday. For example:

• If you create a premium account on Monday, April 14, you will receive your first stipend on Tuesday, April 15.
• If you create a premium account on Tuesday, April 15, you will receive your first stipend on Tuesday, April 22.

Note:Stipend payments may appear late in the day on Tuesdays or possibly not until Wednesday.

Stipends for old accounts

The stipend amount for older accounts depends on what type of account you have and its age.

Premium accounts created or upgraded from basic:

• On or after November 1, 2006 receive L$300 per week.
• Between July 21, 2006 and November 1, 2006 receive L$400 per week.
• Before July 21, 2006 receive L$500 per week.

Certain old basic accounts get a stipend; basic accounts created

• Before June 6, 2006 receive a stipend of L$50 per week, if they log in that week.
• After June 6, 2006 do not receive a weekly stipend.

Premium virtual goods (gifts)

As a premium member, you periodically get an premium virtual good as a benefit. The premium virtual goods are designed by Residents commissioned by Linden Lab. 

How to get your premium virtual good

To get your premium virtual good, go to one of the inworld vending kiosks listed in the Second Life Destination Guide: http://secondlife.com/destinations/premium/gifts.  If you are logged in to the website, go tohttps://secondlife.com/destinations/premium/gifts instead.

To use one of the kiosks:

1. Right-click the kiosk.
2. Choose Buy. NOTE:You won't be charged—the item is free for premium account holders.

The item will then be transferred to your inventory.

The inworld vending kiosks only provide the latest premium virtual good. You cannot get older ones.

Object permissions on premium virtual goods

Premium  virtual goods are no modify, no transfer, copy, meaning you can make copies but cannot modify or transfer the items.

For general information on object permissions, see Object permissions.

How to get help for premium virtual goods

Premium virtual goods are commissioned by Linden Lab and designed by Residents.  Please do not contact the creator for support.  Each premium virtual good comes with an FAQ notecard to help you get started and answer common questions.  

If you still have an unanswered question, email premium_feedback@lindenlab.com.  We will update the notecard as needed, but cannot provide individual responses.

Frequently asked questions

I didn't receive the previous virtual good, and the kiosk only provides the most recent one. Can I get the one I missed?

No, the premium gift vending kiosks only provide the current premium virtual goods. 

Can I take multiple copies of a good from the kiosk?

Yes! As a premium member, you can take as many copies of the premium virtual good as you like.

I accidentally deleted my premium virtual good. Can I get it back?

Yes. As long as the next premium virtual good has not been distributed, you can get it from an inworld kiosk.

Premium sandboxes

A sandbox is an area put aside for building practice. Much like real sandboxes and conceptual sandbox games, these are spaces of creativity and chaos.  For more information on sandboxes, see Building tips.

Several sandboxes exist for specific purposes—such as the Weapons Testing Sandbox—but the majority are simply for regular building.  Signs within each sandbox area make it clear what kind of activities are allowed there.

Sandboxes usually have auto-return enabled to clean themselves several times a day; look for auto-clean information before building, so you aren't caught by surprise. Since sandboxes are experimental, they may also be unstable—be sure to take regular inventory backups of anything that's important.

Premium sandboxes are accessible only to Residents with premium membership.  Each sandbox is made up of four regions. Generally, there is one sandbox per Linden Home continent.  

Find the premium sandboxes through the Second Life Destination Guide: http://secondlife.com/destinations/premium/sandboxes.

Other premium benefits

Premium membership also provide additional benefits!

Live chat support

Residents with premium accounts may initiate a live chat for support issues via the support portal. Basic accounts do not qualify for this kind of support.

Right to own land in popular mainland areas

Residents with a premium account can buy mainland parcels and need to pay a monthly tier when their land exceeds 512m².  For more information, see Land Use Fees.  

The mainland is the largest connected land-mass in Second Life, consisting of hundreds of regions connected to one another with roads, railroads and open oceans.  Being a premium member is a prerequisite for owning mainland parcels.

Immediate access to adult-only areas

Linden homes and some adult areas are accessible only to those 18 years and older. If you are 18 years or older when you sign-up for a premium membership you will automatically have access to these areas. For more information, see Age-restricted content and Accessing Adult land and content.

The describe Limits link no longer works. Takes you to your own set limits, so I have no idea what is going on anymore. lol

That's true, unfortunately.  When the forums were overhauled earlier this year, that page was a casualty.  With any luck, it won't be a permanent loss.  The simple answer to most questions about trading limits is that for the first month, you have limited ability to sell L$ on the LindeX and no ability to take money out of SL.  Those limits on trading and credit transfer are apparently efforts to prevent easy money laundering or tax evasion -- common targets of politicians and law enforcement agencies.  After your first month of trading in SL (not your first month of being in SL), your limits increase rather quickly.  What's missing here are the numbers that used to be in a table on the Limits page, which makes it hard to predict your own limits a month or more after you start.

[LittleMe Jewell]

The above mentions that the "Days" start with your first 'billing transaction'. For many people, that is when they buy L$ for the first time.  However, if you sign up for Premium membership before buying L$, the signup is what starts your clock. Your 'buy' limit will slowly increase over the next 28-30 days until it hits your maximum - not sure if the above amounts are accurate anymore though. Once you hit your "Day 30" after starting the clock, then you can Sell L$ and Process Credit.  Everyone probably starts with the same limits, but if you can show need (hitting maximum) across multiple months, then you can open a Support ticket to request an increase - though it is not guaranteed that you'll get it.
