I question the concept of sending concerns about unanswered or unfavorable disputes in a forum overrun with dissatisfied consumers.  I grew wary just browsing the unnumbered complaints about no or inadequate response.  My most recent case was open and closed with a RMA request followed by a return label and then a Fedex tracking document showing clearly that the item was returned and accepted (with signature).  This case appears as clear as a case could be.  However, after more than two months of mixed information (one phone call indicating case was settled in my favor with refund coming) then an email indicating case has been denied (due to insufficient support documentation) and closed.  How can any PayPal customer feel confident in the resolution of a posted concern?  I am now in the process of preparing a written letter to PayPal (which I have little confidence in) and seeking aid on others who should be included and apprised of this situation.  Here again, little confidence can be placed in a company showing so little regard for this community. To all others, I wish you the best in resolving your voiced concerns but feel less than comfortable a true remedy is coming.  ... View more

Paypal is fine until you encounter a problem.  Then the term "help assistant" means nothing.  I sent many messages containing attachments photos proving beyond doubt my incorrect shipment had been returned, received and signed for by the company representative listed as the seller.  After weeks of communication Paypal closed my dispute in favor of the seller who never refunded me for the product all parties agreed was not what I had ordered.  Paypal offered a appeals capability that rejected every attempt to forward the images they claimed they had not received.  Every attempt to forward supporting information was rejected with what posted as error in system on their end.  I then requested customer support to report a faulty system and requested they forward supporting documentation and/or provide phone contact so I might clarify the situation.  This has gone on for weeks now and no remedy is in sight.  A lot of time and attention has been executed by Paypal to ensure a robust and trustworthy customer support and protection plan however all this effort appears to be "word only".  No effort has been forth-coming to resolve this issue and only proves to work in the favor of poorly managed vendors.  Everyone should consider alternate means of conducting on-line business.  Experience in dealing first-hand with credit card companies prove protection in alleviating this fraudulent behavior by unsavory sellers.  I will in the future remove third party affiliation whenever possible.  A little more complicated but worth the effort.  ...
