Currently on hold for 3 hours and no chat support. Do you guys have any plan on supporting your clients or are these kinds of hold times acceptable to you?

Hi @dwman113,
I'm very sorry to hear that you've been on hold that long. Typically, that is not the experience. It's possible that you've been connected to a bad line. We do have a few other options for support that are not exactly realtime like phone support, but through which you can submit questions. If the question is something general and doesn't require account-specific assistance, I can help here. Otherwise, you could click Help & Contact for other contact options, or contact via Facebook or Twitter.
I hope this helps!

I was transferred to this line twice by Ebay. I have tried twice today. First 1 hour hold and I got disconnected. Now over 3 hours.
I can not make purchases on Ebay. I called them and they told me I had to contact paypal. I have tried 3 different cards and my paypal all that are 100% working and valid. None will go through.
I am still on hold now. I also see other people on the internet complaining about similar hold times.

Hi @dwman113,
I'm sorry to hear that you're unable to make purchases. There are some steps for troubleshooting payment declines here. If those steps do not help you isolate the issue, it is very likely our security system declining to allow the payment. In that situation, it would be important not to flood the system with payment attempts. Have you tried more than a few times today?

Could be possible.
I am looking for a solution. I already realize it could be being blocked.

Still need help. Who can look into my account and tell me what is going on here? 3 hours and 17 minutes hold time.
I am 100% in the paypal phone support queue.
Please provide me some direction on what to do.

Hi @dwman113,
I'm sorry, but we cannot provide account-specific assistance through the forums. Please take a look at the response I sent a couple of moments ago for troubleshooting tips.

So you're saying you can't provide any solution for me? I looked at the tips you suggestion and they do not help me.
Link below is example of many people with similar hold time issue. Does Paypal not see this as a problem?
