Abot six months ago, I sold a set of sterling silverware worth $150. The auction went well and I ignored the fact that the buyer had only one comment (new buyer). Days after they received the item, a credit card dispute was made and paypal gave the buyer their money back. Paypal now turned to [...]

Please write the NY TImes business section consumer advocate and tell him about this. He’s investigating it now. Please don’t barrage him with other Paypa issues.

Paypal Limited my account, sent me an email. I called, they said I had multiple accounts with negative balances. I advised that I had not opened any of them, and how could we resolve this, and was told, essentially, “too bad, we’re not doing business with you any more”. The problem is: I host events, [...]

My brother and I live in the same house. We sometimes use the same computer which means that we often log in with the same IP address.

Usual story, ebay and paypal working for the buyer and not reading or considering your comment on goods sold and returned, then not only do they take funds from your account, you have carraige costs too. The statments made by ebay and paypal are fraudulent and they hide behind their nationality and size to avoid [...]
Paypal is not my pal. They froze my account which included pulling back funds that had already started the transfer process. I provided them with all the information they requested. They then closed my account and the only reason they would give me was that it was a new account ( about 6 weeks ). [...]
I have never wanted to create a PayPal account, but many on-line sellers are requiring it now (won’t even accept a “guest” PayPal payment) and friends assured me how safe it is. Well, the PayPal link from eBay puts you directly into PayPal “SmartConnect”, which is a sham cover for GE Capital Bank credit card [...]
Twice now Paypal has refused to release funds from sold transactions, even after the items had been shipped and received, on two separate occasions – stating the buyer has to have time to review the items first.

We are a sound company in North Carolina doing business with a Mexican company. The club sent us $20,000 and Paypal is holding half of it, with no explanation. We know the funds are legitimate.

I did [...]

In November 2010 I paid for an eBay item (that family member had won using their eBay account).

I recently received a notification that my account (used perhaps 10-20 times per year for Ebay purchases), was “limited” due to some vague explanation about an “audit” finding “similar account information”. I called Payal, and the first representative said she had no explanation listed on why the account was limited. Then a few days later, [...]
Rarely use Paypal- maybe buy 3-4 things a year. A few weeks ago someone deposited $34 into my account (obviously by accident) and Paypal limited my account while investigating. I advised PayPal that I am not a seller and do not know where the money came from, and authorised them to refund the $34. This [...]
PayPal has closed two of my accounts through them because I am not 18 years old. However, I will be 18 years old in less than one month (June 9th). PayPal’s usual customer service department has not been so bad in my case, but the limitation team is terrible. Their customer service is beyond the [...]
Paypal Closed My account without reason. My account was limited last month, no reason given, and PayPal ask me to provide them with some documents to resolve limited account. I sent them all of the documentation they asked me to send, and 6 days later they resolved my account with a balance of $1,113. This [...]

My spam filter placed it in the spam queue, most likely because it originally had links to external pages which further support the submitters political agenda (the links have been removed). I finally [...]
