Is Paypal going insolvent? Why all the mystery ho...

Paypal must be going insolvent.  That is the most likely reason for their rampant imposition of holds on funds from eBay sales.  They are doing everything they can to hang on the every extra penny in order to play financing games and probably engage in crazy investment schemes.   At least they should give us access to the money paid by eBay buyers for shipping.  It defies logic and decency for Paypal to make it MORE difficult to fulfill orders by withholding access to funds earmarked for postage and shipping.   Paypal must be going insolvent.  And the way they treat sellers on eBay, they clearly deserve to go the way of the Dodo bird. ...

Paypal holds out of control especially for postage

I have been selling on eBay for years, perfect rating in the 150's. Suddenly Paypal is putting a hold on payments for purchases, even on the postage amount.  Is Paypal purposefully driving the plane into the ground to totally crash it? Are the owners of Paypal hoping to cash out and have the company go bankrupt?   Paypal ought to AT LEAST have the decency to let me purchase postage with what the customer paid me for postage.  To me, and most people in the world, this is fraudulent action by Paypal in the illegitimate name of risk aversion.  They are inflating their liquid assets for undoubtedly nefarious reasons whether it is to play on the stock market or foist ALL risk off on merchants.   I can't wait for my eBay Payments system to come on line. Paypal has become a horrible, nightmarish institution to deal with. ... View more
