PLEASE HELP ME!!!

 

I have been using Paypal as my primary banking account since they allowed direct deposit. My ENTIRE payroll check went into Paypal and now I have received a message that my funds are locked for 180 days. I have no gas, no food, no nothing. You have taken my entire paycheck. How is this even legal? PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!

I TRUSTED paypal because I loved the service. Now, they freeze my account after I commit to putting my Payroll into their hands? WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO?

Hi,

 

Sorry this is happening to you. PayPal is not a bank, if their system sense risk, they can freeze the account, that is why you link a bank or withdrawal-able debit card to transfer out or direct deposit your pay at a real bank. Talk to your employer to change your direct deposit to a different bank account. Yep, will have to wait 180 days to withdrawal what you have in PayPal. In the meantime, file a case with bbb.org to get an appeal for your account.


Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂

Then why are they advertising direct deposit for payroll. I loved the service and now my entire payroll has been frozen. What am I supposed to do for my family? How am I supposed to get gas and go to work? What the hell is this?
