Business School 101 (for PayPal)
by PPC Submitter on September 27, 2011 at 10:20 AM1. Never insult your customers- Especially your best customers. 2. For every unhappy customer that you hear about (who posts here, for example) there are MANY more that remain quiet, but will never use you again. 3. Word of mouth is everything, and unhappy customers talk more than happy customers. 4. It is harder to make [...]
How does paypal get away with holding money they aren’t entitled to? It’s bad enough that by the time we pay ebay and paypal their “fees” we end up with nothing. They then hold our money that we are entitled to and expect us to ship our packages out using our own money. They are [...]

PayPal Unable To Match My Phone Number With My Account
by admin on December 19, 2010 at 4:42 PMEvery time I call Paypal to discuss my account problems with them, their automated phone system prompts me to enter my phone number.

Transfer Time From PayPal To Bank Account Is A Joke
by PPC Submitter on December 10, 2010 at 9:34 AMIn this day and age, it is an absolute joke that it takes 3 to 4 days just to move money from my PayPal account into my bank account.

PayPal Reward Points
by PPC Submitter on November 15, 2010 at 2:40 PMWhat Reward Points PayPal gives PayPal takes away.
