Hello,
the question seems an easy one, instead of Paypal recently cutting all customer service they didn't update the website and the FAQ is old.
So now I am getting on this issue since time ago is literally a **bleep**ing hell. 😡 😡Not sure why they keep customer service and their FAQ very unresponsive and means that the is an issue somewhere. I have checked my account and I noticed an unauthorized PayPal account activity that came from PAYPAL CREDITS.
My recurring payment was set 20£ a month and now this week I noticed they send me a bill of 560£. I didn't authorize this. They just sent me this payment. This is madness. There is no way to speak with them and the customer service is very very bad recently.😡 I checked all pages on Resolution Centre FAq for my case. All the FAQs are not updated. When you follow the instruction is not work at all.
This is what I get: No way to speak with them, but you need to pay randomly 560£
Unable to complete your request.

Thank you Paypal, hopefully people is gonna wake up and cancel the account forever.
