I am very confused about the recent policy change/statement about binding arbitration, particularly this statement:
Unless you opt out: (1) you will only be permitted to pursue claims against PayPal on an individual basis, not as a plaintiff or class member in any class or representative action or proceeding and (2) you will only be permitted to seek relief (including monetary, injunctive, and declaratory relief) on an individual basis.
Shouldn't the word "Unless" be "If"?

I Agree, and in either case there are no instructions for opting out of the change. They make it sound like there is a choice but how do we exercise that choice?

TO OPT OUT:
Send a handwritten one-sentence letter to:
PayPal

San Jose, CA 95131
"Sirs, as per your notice, we Opt Out."
Sign your name, provide your address, send the letter via US Mail with a 75 cent "Confirmation of Delivery" and you're done!
PayPal has made no provision has been made for electronie opt-out.

This still doesn't answer the original question which was about the correct usage of words in the statement; It's still confusing and still bad grammar. Will someone please admit that and correct it?

The statement is grammatically correct for what they want to say. "Unless" you opt out you are stuck.

Of course there's no way to electronicaly opt out, that would be too easy. They're banking on you being too lazy or stupid to actually use snail mail Hey Admin Lady, how about an electronic opt-out if you're so customer friendly?

Don't forget to state exactly what you are opting out of or will will likely end up in the trash.

+ 3 (I third that motion). Assuming the language is even correct, there is no explanation for how to opt out of binding arbitration 9in the agreement0, nor is there any "opt out" language (referenced) anywhere on the website.

I agree. I just spent fifteen minutes looking on the site but can find no way to opt out. I don't understand either how any one can prvent someone legally from joining class action lawsuits.
