Paypals "new" wait 21 days for your funds.

Who is the genius that decided we now have to wait up to 21 days for our funds. I started last september, jumped thru all their hoops, established a good solid sale and feedback record. I did everything they asked. FINALLY, they began to give me prompt payments, and i thought "okay, this is more like it" Ha!! This morning I get an e-mail from paypal informing me that they are now "temporarily" going to hold my funds for up to 21 days. I jumped on the phone and everyone i talk to has a different reason for it. Seems to me that maybe our "pals" at Paypal have got themselves in a cash bind (??????), and need to hang on to our money in order to straighten things out.  Or am I just being a paranoid old fool?? I have a perfect sales record and feedback, no complaints from my customers, yet I get this crap treatment. Well, what are we going to do fellow users?   Does anyone remember how Bank of America got their hands slapped just a few weeks ago, or  Verizons attempt to steal money from their customers with phoney billing charges?  What do you folks out there think? ...

You and me both bud. I'm in the same boat, and I think they can care less. I have had my credit union fax them (at their request). I have reentered the correct account number over and over. Who's running Paypal? A bunch of chimps in a zoo? I just notified my leading bidder that I won't accept paypal payments until i get my account straightened out. I gave him the option of withdrawing his bid if he likes. I'll take my chances with a strangers check before trusting Paypal to get anything right. ... View more
