Class action lawsuit against PayPal

Hello all, I’d like to reach out to everyone who is tired of PayPal’s sick policy and sketchy business. Here what lead me to this: I was paid by 2 friends money as friends and family. When I went to withdraw the first payment to my bank they said there was a 72 hour delay plus the 1 day to withdraw if they didn’t find a issue. The second one I withdrew to my debit card and they also placed a 3 day delay. I have already talked to an attorney and it appears it isn’t the first time PayPal is sued for placing unjustified holds on funds. It appears PayPal is only holding funds to gain interest from the money. Also: it states in PayPal’s policy’s that holds are randomly placed to a very small percentage, yet both of mine in different days were placed on hold. Fun fact: PayPal has already been sued in 2015-16 for these same unjustified practices.

Hey! I am from Romania, currently living in Poland and I have a similar issue. I have tried to withdraw my money and they said my account was ”limited” because there were ”too many transactions” (2 transactions are apparently too many). I have updated all the info requested and now when I try to withdraw my money I get an error saying they are not able to process the transaction at the moment & please try again later. It's been doing that for two days... It's really frustrating not being able to get my money when I need them... Also, does anyone have any other options for online transactions? Have you maybe used Payoneer and can give any feedback? Thx!

Is there a 2019 lawsuit against pyapal? They are holding my money and it may cause me to get evicted.

Ok guys. 291 people have had the same issues. Hav all day f those filed with bbb? I know it seems poi tless to most people but i see it differently. Nothing will chamge if ee dont tqke a stand. Up agwinst their bad business decisions. DONT BE AFRAID TO FILE AGAISNT THEM JUST BECAUSE THEY ARE A LARGE BUSINESS. THE ONLY THING THWY COULD DO TO IS CLOSE YOUR ACCOUNT 

IT TOOK e a WHILE TO SRATT CONFONTING THEM.

the worst they could is shut off your acct and would that really be so bad? Afterall, dont we all want to  stop doing busineess with them? 

 

So please if you are one of the 291 people who are having  the sam issue FILE A REPORT WIYH BBB!!!!

 

how do we go about finding a lawyer?

I have a landscape and grading company. I invoice my customers via paypal. They pay a deposit, and thenonce done, they'll pay the rest. Paypal has started holding my funds for 21 days for buyer protection. Wven my customers have called them saying everything is good and they still don't release my money. I'm looking into switching to square because I have payroll and materials that I have to pay for.
