The amount i tried to spend including shipping is below my balance.  I've tried to talk to paypal.  Via emails.  Etc.  I'll call as a last resort as I hate trying to talk to offshore. ... View more

I have a debit card linked to the account.  Still gives me a 'you've reached your limit of 10,000' blurb.   Why it does this when I am trying to spend $50 and have a 58.00 balance....   ... View more

I used to have a bank account.  Since I rarely used it I got rid of it ($12 per month adds up!).   When I unlinked it from my account, I all of a sudden find that I no longer can purchase things on ebay - even though I have money in my account!!!   I have a walmart money card that I have direct deposited to that I tried to link, but it won't allow that either.   I've been using paypal for 10 years.   As an aside, I've tried to change my phone number (I switched carriers as AT&T no longer had good deals) but when I try to change it, the verification text message never comes through.   I've tried contacting paypal and all I get are generic responses that tell me to link my bank account.  At this point, I'm getting fed up and am considering filing a theft of funds complaint....   ...

Yet another angry user who wants to use the small flat rate boxes.  This is absurd - another example of what happens when a company is a virtual monopoly (EBAY/PAYPAL) and is offshored to the xtent that they are.  Don't kid yourself - they are one and the same companies, and a majority of the employees are outside the USA.   Hopefully this will be just one more nail in the coffin of this monopolistic corporation - I wish that someone would start a viable alternative to PayPal.   ...
