PayPal limited my account permanently 3 months ago bc I used my first initial of my name instead of my name, which is fine ! But they informed me they were holding my funds for 6 months incase or charge backs ???? I’m sorry ??? My accounts has literally never been used , what would there b to charge back ?!?!?!(ive never used my account !!! I received one payment from a relative and the funds are still there !!!! It was a friend and family payment at that , therefore I can’t be charged back ! My spouse recently contacted covid 19 & then obviously I did as well and times have been hard , we have an 8 year old child who is high risk and no income right now bc our unemployment is under investigation , I have this measly $75 in my PayPal account , it’s been 3 months so I decided to contact PayPal and kindly ask them to give me my funds considering there was no possibility of a charge back on an account that had never been used for buying/selling purposes - i knew it was a long shot but I figured with all the other business’s in the country right now showing kindness & offering help in any reasonable ways they can , that maybe PayPal would jump on that bandwagon ! But NO ! I got a Cold , uncaring , matter of Fact response from some lovely PayPal employee telling me I’d have to Wait until February 9 2020 ! That was it , plain and simple - no you can’t have your own funds and the covid 19 epidemic doesn’t matter , you being sick with it doesn’t matter , we can’t give you your own $75 under any circumstance ! I hope PayPal gets what they deserve someday - search google for all the horror stories about PayPal keeping thousands and thousands of dollars from the rightful owners of funds simply bc they CAN , but to do it during covid 19 and doing it To people who have contracted the virus and are vulnerable , sick , and truly terrified , that’s a new low , even for PayPal !!! I will be posting this everyway , I’ve already made a complaint with BBB but that is just the beginning - PayPal has went to far with their greed , other businesses trump you by far PAYPAL!!! Utility companies are letting people go months without shutting off utilities , other companies making Meals for those of us in quarantine , banks waiving overdraft fees and offering assistance and what’s PayPal doing ? Exhibiting greed and without empathy or kindness ! Shame on you ! I will make sure I never spend another red cent that Goes to you !!!!
