- I sold an item to a buyer with only "4" feedbacks. He rec'd the item, left me positive feedback, detailing the item and then a MONTH later instigated a chargeback claiming a family member used his acct.. OK, so send back my item right? It's a $2,550 value (certified) he paid $600 for. - Instead, PP not only trips my bank overdraft in taking this $$ back, but they FREEZE my acct. when my bank stands up for me and reverses it. My bank said PP was being absurd and ILLEGAL given that the buyer left feedback, clearly indicating they had the item I sold them. --- THREE months later, PP agrees with my bank, says the issue is resolved, unfreezes my acct. and we can forget it ever happened. --- NOPE. Just over 2 weeks after telling me they found in my favor and all is well, PP tells me the buyer's bank decided for the buyer (the THIEF who has the merchandise and now wants their money too). PP is in the process of reaching into my bank acct. AGAIN to take the money AGAIN and trigger the overdraft AGAIN. --- I had a 2 week window to cancel my PP acct and get out alive. PP is enabling this "4 feedback" conman while I'm a decades old, established buyer/seller, Premier account holder and blah blah blah. Never ONCE a complaint or problem. Not a single 'negative' in over 10 yrs. --- If you ever have a chargeback and it's reportedly "resolved", RUN !!!!! Close your acct., disable your bank connections to PayPal and never look back. There ARE other options including old fashioned paper checks, hidden cash in an envelope, wiring, etc.. This nightmare, by the way, has caused the deaths of THREE animals. I own a rescue org. and our sales at eBay ALL go to save lives, provide urgent care for people who can't afford it, feed animals in need. THREE were going to have necessary surgeries from this money. No $$, no vet care. They died and three elderly, disabled and very poor owners are devastated that their only companions are gone. Thanks to a thief at eBay and PayPal aiding and abetting them
