REALLY PayPal ?!!!! This is just getting too old for words. Fine, this is a "new" account, just to clarify, this is considered a new account, yet I keep getting certificates for new "Stars" to print out etc. because I am establishing myself through Positive Feedback, Fast Shipping, Excellent Communication etc. as an up and coming Seller in eBay's eyes. Alright, that said; It would seem I haven't "Moved Heaven and Earth" Enough yet to suit PayPal. Everytime I turn around, from the beginning my account is "On a 21 Day Payment Hold, "on again,Off Again" ! Mind you, all the while I have almost perfect Feedback, Quick Shipping etc,etc etc. Finally, less than a month ago, I needed to pay for some items I purchased on eBay, so I'm waiting for my Positive Feedback because my PayPal account is on hold again, (at least for the next 10 minutes. : / ) so I get the feedback, and I begin the wait, I will say as a general rule that PayPal is pretty quick in releasing funds after Positive Feedback, (usually same day had been my experience) but this day was different, I waited and waited, no release, so I called Customer Service. Upon looking at my Positive Feedback, History etc etc, the Operator agreed with me that my money should be available to me, and not only did he remove the holds on the money in question, he took the "Hold" off period, either that or recommended that it be taken off to the "Powers that Be" however that works. Anyway, I thought: "Finally, my Prayers have been answered: NO MORE 21 DAY HOLDS !" NOT..... Yes the hold was removed alright, for about 12 hours, or maybe 24 at the outside. Only to be put BACK ON HOLD ! Thus it began again, back and forth, on and off. WHAT GIVES ? It is SO bad that I have to check my Account Status before I can even bid on anything, for fear that even though the thing was "Holdless" yesterday, it might have changed again today ! As if that is not enough, now they are **bleep**ing up other areas of my finances ! Some examples: For quite sometime, my shipping fees when I shipped an item were taken from my Paypal account, from where the person payed for their item and their shipping, Cool, that was working great. THEN IT WASN'T !! All of a sudden, I'm getting overdraft notices from my bank !!! WHAT ?!! That couldn't be right, nothing is coming out of my account, YES IT WAS, PayPal decided to try my ON HOLD AGAIN account, and then just go ahead and get it from my checking account. Money was in my PayPal Acct., on hold, but there..?????????????????????? Then everything I read on both eBay and PayPal said my eBay Seller Fees came out of my Acct. (checking) on "x" date. OK good, I've been wanting to add my new credit card, and acct. and remove the checking account I had been using, they say my eBay payment has been made so I'm all good ! So I did all that, and went about the business of trying to pay for some stuff I bought, checked my PayPal acct., money there, check....NO KIDDING...BY THE TIME I GOT THROUGH THE PROCESS OF PAYING THE SELLER PAYPAL HAD SNAGGED MY MONEY FOR MY EBAY FEES THAT HADN'T HIT YET APPARANTLY, 4 DAYS AFTER THE FACT !! This is enough to make a person wanna hurl.....REALLY !!! Now I have a true blue mess !!!! Can someone please help me before I pull my hair all out one by one ? I've got one nerve left at this point, and PayPal is JUMPIN' UP AND DOWN ON IT !!!!
