I've been using PayPal for 20 years and all of a sudden it has appeared in my WhatsApp contacts list, which comprises only people I know personally. And there's no way of deleting it. Playing around with the various options did lead to a prompt "Add to Contacts". Seems to be something to do with a business account, but my transactions are very modest - often only £50 or so purchases, the same for sales.
Perhaps something to do with two-step verification? I usually get these by text. No warning or request from PayPal that it was doing this.
Phone number for PayPal is given as [Removed. Phone #s not permitted]
I see there was disquiet about this last year
Seems a ham-fisted way of going about things, but I guess I'm just going to have live with it?
