Is it safer to transact through Paypal? Can I take...

I was scammed during 2020 by a shop I used to many times buy from. They promised to provide me with tracking number but they failed. I didnt receive anything from that shop. That is an ecommerce website with many smaller shops. The shop ignored me after that. I thought they were ill with Covid after many silent months but then I saw them sell again so I contact them again. I still trust people and dont think bad of them. Until I realize they may not want to pay me back. I contacted the support staff there at the ecommerce web so they can reach out to the shop but they said they cannot do anything and told me to contact Paypal. I dont know how to start because my communications with that shop is on that ecommerce so do I have to take screenshot to prove my case. And it was in 2020, quite long time. Also, I just realize that Paypal fee is nearly 5%. That is too high on a single transaction. I lose trust in that ecommerce web (I many time was tricked but luckily found it out. However, not this time) and people in general now.   I ... View more

I just found out that there is no email contact in Paypal. How can that be possible? I go to help section and they point me to the message us function, which I found out is an AI automatic response system. Worst is when you urgently need help and you receive instruction that "Please leave a message and we will forward it to a staff". No confirmation, no notice of when you will be replied. AI is not to be praised and used like this. Now anyone praising AI, I so want to throw it in their face.   I notice that I paid high percentage (about 10%) in fees. Not to mention this is a popular transfer service. I expect better support when I have pressing issues.   I use this account for many years, doing small services. I many times verified my account. The difference I noticed is that I have clients that I accumulate my invoices for many months and only ask them to pay at the end of the year. Therefore this is the peak time in my account and now this happens. Not only that I cannot access my funds. My clients cannot settle my invoices and they will close their financial year. Even worse is that they do it in a difficult pandemic year and I got 1000 stuck there.         ... View more
