I have the same problem but a different case, this time I am sure of not receiving any items I purchased because I just found out that the merchant seller is a scammer. I'm hearing disabled and cannot reach customer service due to Covid19 crisis. I hope to seek help for this before it is too late. 😞

I need help from Paypal and the community in resolving my case with a scammer. Unfortunately, it is my first time to report a dispute,
I filed as "unauthorized transaction" but actually it is to file "not being able to receive the item" and that seller has not return any responses regarding the shipment of my goods.

@Itsme00 Me three. I will be reporting a certain business to the better business bureau. once upon a time, if you opened a dispute against a seller their account was placed on hold until they responded and/or resolved it. Which caused them to respond/resolve sooner. Truthfully why does paypal need for ME to escalate the issue? if the vendor hasn't responded in 2-3 days, that should be an automatic escalation. I'll stick to being a seller on paypal for now.

Same here. I found out, sadly, that Paypal will make NO effort in investigating fraud and take the side of the sellers. What sellers are doing now is steal tracking numbers so they appear legitimate (they are technically legitimate because they are someone else's). They post the number in the transaction and Paypal says that you got the order, even though even the shipping service (in my case UPS) confirmed that the tracking number was not for me or my address. Paypal did not care

I had a recent bad experience going through dispute resolution (as a buyer) with Paypal. Encountered a "bait and switch" situation with an online bulk sms operator (found out after payment the seller is based in Indonesia and under a totally different name from the online persona). Anyway, cut long story short here is a brief summary of what transpired:
1. Merchant offered a trial account for its service. I signed up and tested the service using the trial account. Service performed as expected (SMS message sent promptly and reliably)
2. Satisfied, I topped up the account with real credit via Paypal. Once account topped up with real credit, service stopped working!
3. Contacted merchant's online/chat support. Support tried to upsell me to a higher priced service (note: I tested using the lower priced service during trial and it worked well).
4. I refused to buy the higher priced service. Support then reminded me of Terms and Condition and limitation of performance of the service I purchased (basically they claimed the service I purchased only offered 60-70% success rate!!!). When I checked, the T&C was spelt out in the payment receipt email! I double checked and nowhere could I find that mentioned in the merchant's website and FAQ pages.
5. When I was adamant not to upgrade, Support started insinuating that I was trying to use their SMS service for fraudulent activities and the merchant does not want me as a customer! I got support to confirm they will give me a refund (and captured a screenshot of the chat).
6. Subsequently I opened a dispute with Paypal with the reason "Service Not as Described". After weeks, and after providing all supporting information + screenshots (including the part where merchant promised me refund), Paypal abruptly closed the case with "case resolved".
Attempts to contact Paypal for a redress on this case was futile.
Luckily the paypal transaction is using my Visa credit card. I have raised my dispute with my card issuing bank and that appeared to be a hassle free process. At this time, based on the evidence I submitted, my card issuing bank has blocked the Paypal payment 🙂
Shame on Paypal on its dispute resolution process.
Kudos to my card issuing bank on its stress free dispute resolution.
