I posted a while ago about PayPal taking double money from our account....well it gets better.
Firstly:
they have now taken £150 from my PayPal account and froze it while they investigate.....trying to scream at them on the phone really doesnt work they want a faxed bank statement... So i have to climb into the garage and dust the old Fax machine off and put some coal in it to get it working.... All i want is my money back
second problem:
The second transfer they took was rejected by the bank (quite rightly you say) but the bank charged me £30 for doing it...
This is the good bit....The transaction that initiated the charges has disapeared from my bank statement...the charges are still there but the transaction has magically vanished... so i now cannot prove it happened.
Its got to the point that for £180 i cant be arsed.
Pay Pal are the biggest wankers on the planet. But they do seem to be getting a little better. The "last" time I have $1000 stolen from my bank account it only took them 2 weeks to get it back :(

I hate Paypal and have always stuck to my guns about them being theiving cunts.
I was told I was "associated" with two other accounts. I asked for proof and they wouldn't give it to me.
Of course I didn't have a passporte or a drivers license at the time so had no photographic ID to send them although I was more than happy to fax through the birth certificate, bank statements and utility bills. They weren't happy with that.
It's now five months on and after £100 in phone call bills, complaints the the FSA and time wasted I'm a month away for getting the £350 that is my account bank and the account shut down.
At the time I got my account limited 12 other people I knew, just happened to have their account limited or closed and they were featured on watchdog. I called the FSA and the lady on the phone had told me that they had had over 100 calls THAT DAY about Paypal and closed accounts.
Something fishy if you ask me.
I will never use or recommend them EVER.

Well it's kinda hard to use Ebay without it.
Alot of people need Paypal for things like Ebay and some people accept it on their websites for stuff, just makes life easier, that's if they don't screw over your account...

I don't think anyone NEEDS to buy off E-bay, if they do thenmaybe they should seek some professional help.

I NEED my ebay fix - and I could use some professional help building more wardrobe space now you come to mention it :crown:

Lucky you. They closed my account a while ago for no other reason than it was adult!
I did get a very nice email from them saying they'd be in touch within days to help find an alternative processor. 6 months on, I'm still waiting for any contact.
Very generously, they did let me keep my money.

Why do you not want to give them CC details, don't trust them?
If that is the case don't buy from them

Also the pay part should be changed to cunts also. So maybe they should be called cuntcunts or the couple of cunts or the two cunts
