Further to the above I had to fork out for another order---so today , twice the money I intended left my bank account .
Now , I can hear the groans already , but you will have to know , I am 80 and obviously on a pension ; this means I can ill afford having to pay more than planned , in this case over£50 . My pension is just on the £100 mark per week . There , then are the practicalities .
So I have to ask , is it beyond the wit of Paypal to check if the order has an urgency about it ? for example mine clearly stated next day delivery . Paypal could then seek a non-urgent item to investigate . For what , I haven't a clue , I gave up money laundering a while back and the weather wrecked my cannabis crop and my pimping days are long gone .
Last week I had a dispute with a seller because although he accepted Paypal , he deliberately changed my method of payment and I fought for him to do as he was asked and advertised because I trust Paypal .
As a direct result of this , the alternative payment company offered me an account with the following advantages . Their head office and services are in Europe , they do not owe allegiance to the EU , and offer the same services as Paypal . At the time , I declined , after all I had no complaint with Paypal , but now I shall pay by card whenever possible , and am seriously considering taking up the opposition's offer .
