I am so FRUSTRATED as well!!! I have sold things on eBay for YEARS...Never had a problem with PayPal until just recently. They are holding the eBay customers ENTIRE payment, including what they paid me to ship the item!!! Then, this is where I get REALLY mad, they take the shipment charge (from the label I print via PayPal in which I am sure they get a kick back from USPS) out of MY PERSONAL BANK ACCOUNT!!! They won't even release the funds the customer paid for SHIPPING so I can pay the SHIPPING!!! What a crock! I am sure this is all being done to gain interest on all of OUR money! This can't be right. First, any money we receive is due to business transactions that WE have conducted. Do you think any banks could get away with this? Do you think Wells Fargo could tell a business account holder that they were keeping money received from a business transaction for 10 days or however long they wanted to and would release it when they wanted to??? Nope. Second, how can they receive MY money for the eBay item AND shipping and then take the cost of shipping out of my personal bank account? I have many international shipments costing $30-$60 to ship and they have no problem taking that out of my personal account. I should have more than enough money in my PayPal account to cover these shipping charges!!! Third, I don't ever remember getting any sort of notification that these changes were going to take place...not via email, not in the mail, nothing...Can they just take it upon themselves to make these changes and not let us know??? I would like to be involved in some sort of action against PayPal if anyone knows of anything going on. I am a single mother of six children that has a side eBay business to help make ends meet. I cannot afford hundreds of dollars being taken out of my personal bank account to cover charges that have already been paid for by customers. This is ABSURD!!!! Jennifer
