This is just ridiculous...

 

I feel sorry for everyone. I really hope it works today....if I have to go another day with $1.31 in my account I think I'll officially snap. 

 

Now I have to find a way to get something to eat on 3 or 4 dollars if they let me go into a negative balance....

 

At least I have someone to rant to because I can't even understand what the operators are saying enough to yell at them when I call.

 

Please fix by tonight!!!

I know one thing...after seeing all this..there are a ton of people with your same problem..I am ditching them and moving to something else.  I checked into the Google Wallet and it works just like PayPal except without that extra step of transferring.

 

They are saying whatever they can on the phone..but in reality they are probably running around like a bunch of freaked out zombies.

 

Hang in there!

I just orded my Google Wallet card.  Now all I need to do is find some survey sites that pay in that method.  Smiley LOL

My problem is that my company only pays via PayPal, Payoneer, or BTC. They don't offer any direct deposit options at all. So, I'm thinking that I'm going to be switching over to Payoneer before my next payout, because I evidently cannot count on PayPal to have my money available to me when it's available to them. This whole thing is complete and utter nonsense. They refuse to specify any sort of timeframe as to when this will be fixed, and they've got us all strung along on a limb here, because they've got our money tied up as a consequence of their ill-planned "upgrade." As far as I'm concerned, they should be refunding the money that was deducted from my paycheck as their "service charge" because so far, I haven't received any service. All I've received is a lot of aggravation, headache, and warm smoke blown up my nether regions. Robot Mad

OMG! I was thinking this was just a small temporary thing, but judging from this thread, this has been going on for a while. How on earth could they take the server down like this and leave all of these people stuck? I, like many, rely on PayPal prepaid card to buy groceries, and without being able to ttransfer my funds, I will be unable to buy groceries, so I guess my wife and child must go hungry until paypal fixes this? This is totally unacceptable. I WILL be notifying the media about this, and I am going to be closing my account and using a different method to access my funds. Paypal really **bleep** up this time! And they act as if they couldn't care less. As if it's no big deal, oh well, just be patient, we'll be back up... and if not, oh well... so what if your family goes hungry and your bills get behind, guess that's OUR problem, not theirs, huh?

WHY IS THIS STILL BROKEN?! you steal enough money from your users to be able to afford the best in tech support, and yet you have failed to maintain a service that many people rely on to live! You have given no direct answer, you give the same response over and over to everyone, roll back your service and then worry about updates! Give us our money!

This is our money. We pay monthly fees and getting no info. Or even someone commenting in this topic is ridiculous. You can't treat ppl who you make billions off of like this. My funds are basically being held hostage from me which hasbto be illegal. If info was given i d be more understanding but being lied to non stop is getting very annoying

I've had enough of this foolishness. It's BS, BS, and more BS. No resolution, nothing definitive, just a lot of hot air. I've gone through my company to sign up with Payoneer. They tell me that there's less hassle and less fees. So, all I can do for now is wait for PayPal to give me my money, and once that's settled, start moving forward with Payoneer. I can't rely on these people to get their **bleep** straight, and give me my money on time. And the most infuriating thing is that they come across like it's business as usual, no big deal. Yeah, PayPal, you're illegally holding $1600 of MY hard earned money, of which you stole over $50 as a "service charge" and I can't even do a simple **bleep** thing like transfer money to my card so I can feed my child, or pay my rent, or any of the other **bleep** that I need to do as a matter of course in my day-to-day existence.

 

Thanks for ruining my ENTIRE WEEK, PayPal! Robot Mad

Oh yeah, and any small **bleep** wonder why there is NO ONE AT ALL working these so-called "Support Forums?" They don't give a **bleep** that they're **bleep** up our lives here. They don't give a **bleep** that our children are going without, that we can't pay rent or bills, that we can't buy gas, or anything else at all. **bleep** pieces of **bleep**!

Totally amazes me that not ONE PERSON from Paypal, comes onto this board to ease the stress of the people who SUPPORT THEIR FAMILIES, and creates a job for them.  Ebay restricts you from accepting checks or money orders from buyers, and forces you to use Paypal... (owned be Ebay), so they can pad their bank accounts even more.  THREE DAYS NOW !!!!  Come on REALLY.... System upgrades... Yea right... More like " if we do this for 1 week, Paypal will make an extra $500.000.00 in interest".

I'm a Top Rated PowerSeller getting ready to put my auctions on hold.  Do I really want them holding 5 or 10 thousand dollars of my money... Don't think so... They aren't FDIC insured as far as I know. TRUST NO BIG COMPANY... they could care LESS.

I have had it. I need to get groceries. My internet was turned off earlier today because I couldn't pay my bill and I work online, but, I was able to contact my internet provider and get it turned back on until the end of the week. I can't take this anymore! Me and my kids are going to be suffering if they don't fix this. I cannot afford to wait on a normal transfer. I can't stand any of this. I don't understand why nobody from PayPal is giving a truthful timeframe that people can rely upon. I am tired of checking PayPal and checking the FB page, etc. I just want my money. That is it, just like everyone else. This has **bleep** up everything for me in the last 2 days.
