That's crappy and shady for PayPal to treat money requests as commercial. I'm sorry that happened to you. However, I didn't send her a request either. I didn't even know she was repaying me when she did. She sent me a message and said "hey, I just paid you back."

1st, I'm the receiver so, no, it's not my fault because I did not initiate the transaction. 2nd, it's a technical issue where the option never came up, therefore this is on PayPal. You really should read the post better before commenting.

My family member paid me money she owed me via PayPal. PayPal did not give her an option to choose family/friends or goods/services so she just sent it (not knowing that it should have asked her) and PayPal treated as a good/services transaction and took a fee from me from me. She has sent me money before and I never got charged a fee in the past from her. We even went through the steps to do it again and still PayPal did not ask her if it was for friends/family or goods/services. This isnt right. How do I get my money back?
