Additionally, it allows for PayPal to see that multiple users feel the same way about an issue and possibly review or revise their policy. You know what DOES sound dumb? * Statements that people who express their opinion or frustration "sound dumb." * Random insults and comments that add no value whatsoever to a thread (especially if they're carelessly written with bad grammar.) * "DUH!" You missed the point 10.4 Actions by PayPal - Holds. Read up a bit Nice. But hardly the point, Law-Abiding Citizen. I just came to these forums because I received this lovely e-mail, too. Now obviously they're going to cover themselves in the TOS. And obviously nobody reads the TOS, although you strike me as the kind of tyke who's read the iTunes user agreement. But see, the point isn't that they have covered themselves and can hold accounts. The point is that they don't tell you why they're holding accounts. If I get an e-mail after I've had some Paypal or eBay trouble or whatever, and then several months later Bob has a Paypal balance issue and gets an e-mail, that's one thing. But this is CLEARLY a mass e-mail. I have no problem with their vigilance. I DO have a problem when they are just throwing a deck of playing cards up in the air and punishing the ones that land face up. I haven't done a bloody thing to deserve this and Unabomber aside, judging by the comments here, nor has anyone else.
