Re: Business Debit MasterCard ATM withdrawals

Actually, no. PayPal only allows you to withdraw from your PayPal balance when doing an ATM withdrawal or debit card PIN purchase (in other words, "debit" vs. "credit").   The backup funding source is only used (if specified for the PayPal debit card) for credit ("signature") purchases if you don't have enough funds in your PayPal balance. ...

This is getting more than frustrating.  I called about 4 days ago and was told that it was a known issue, that the system was "undergoing some maintenance", and that it should likely be fixed within a couple of days.  Still not fixed, and no other follow-up from PayPal.  "Maintenance" doesn't take this long, and emailing notifications should not be that complicated a thing to get back up and running. I'm a web developer, so I know quite a bit about how this stuff works.  I don't understand what the major problem could be, nor why they are calling it "maintenance" (nor why we weren't given a heads up that the system would be undergoing maintenance).   This is borderline critical for me, and making me seriously consider taking my business elsewhere.  I have been a PayPal customer for probably about 10 years, and have never really seriously thought about using anyone else for my website income, but this is getting to the point where it is taking way too much of my time to manage my account.   PayPal, PLEASE pay attention to these concerns, and give us some kind of update, a solution or at least a firm timeline for a solution, and try to keep me as a customer.  I WANT you to keep me as a customer, but you're going to have to give me a reason to stay... ...

I noticed this, too, although in my case, it hasn't stopped completely.  It's just very sporadic.  Since the 21st, I have gotten a grand total of 4 emails from PayPal, despite the fact that there were probably 20 or so transactions that took place (either new purchases, or emails letting me know that my backup funding source has been drafted to cover the transactions).   So, they haven't stopped completely, but they have been very few and far between.  Like all of you, this really messes with my workflow and management of my accounts. I rely heavily on those emails! ... View more
