This is the first time I used paypal and it is ridiculous, never again! The buyer of my item on ebay sent payment right after they bought it & I printed shipping labels & updated shipping status. First of all, since my paypal account. is linked to my bank account., they took the shipping fees from my bank account at first. I think the next day they refunded JUST the shipping fees, and my funds availability was December 21st (tomorrow). Then a few days later, they changed it to December 15th. Still nothing, if it is not on there tomorrow not sure what I am gonna do because I need the money which is the ONLY reason I sold the item in the first place! And, they also keep reducing the amount I am supposed to receive by a dollar or two every other day it seems. I tried to email but its not a real email they make you pick a topic & subtopic from a list of only 5 topics and none of which is going to help me with my individual account! The virtual person just kept asking the same question over & over. When I clicked the option to call them they gave me an 888 number that kept connecting me to a chat line or hook up line...WT*!! I only set up paypal because it is advertised as the best/fastest/safest way to send/receive money and EVERYONE is accepting paypal as payments now! Its a joke as far as I am concerned. I want to close my account but I am afraid if I do, my money will NEVER come and "GET LOST" somewhere! It's pi**es me off because the money was to help with my children's Christmas because my husband is laid off right now, but it looks like thats not gonna happen! I seriously cant believe a company that I hear so many positive things about doesn't ever have an ACTUAL PERSON to talk to for customer service!
