@DerekLuther   NEVER close a dispute until you have your refund. If you close it now your seller can ignore you and you can't re-open another one for the same transaction. The seller is perfectly able to refund you during the dispute, in fact when they do it automatically closes the dispute. If you had to close a dispute to get a refund then what would be the point of a dispute process in the first place. Escalate to a claim if the seller has not refunded. ... View more

@Rylee-Greene   NO !!! Paypal does not allow account holders under the age of 18. PayPal asks for a birth date when you register so whilst you can make a PayPal account with false information the account will be subject to sending and receiving limits. When you reach those limits you will be unable to verify your account so your account would be locked for further use. Minors can’t enter legal contracts so you won’t have any recourse to get your money back. Consider what your goals are in the long-term so that you don’t back yourself into a corner. ... View more

@Hereford53   You should never use paypal for an item that is to be collected or personally delivered as you have 0 seller protection. Your buyer can collect the item and then file a dispute as you have now found out. As you would have no tracking number to prove delivery of the item to him then you would probably lose any dispute. You should have refunded them and then asked for cash on collection. ... View more

@Amlinra   How do I open a dispute with a seller when a purchase goes wrong? You can open a dispute in the Resolution Centre of your PayPal account within 180 days of payment if: •You don’t receive the item •You receive an item but it’s significantly different than the description on eBay or on the seller’s website By opening a dispute, you can communicate directly with your seller to work out a problem transaction. If you reach an agreement with the seller you can close the dispute. If you're still not happy with the result, you can escalate the dispute into a claim. We'll review the claim and decide on reimbursement. These steps apply to Personal accounts. If you have a Business account, please log in to see the steps that apply to you. To open a dispute: 1.Log in to your PayPal account. 2.Near the bottom of the page, under 'More about your account', click Resolve a problem in our Resolution Centre. 3.Click Dispute a Transaction. 4.Select the button beside the transaction you want to dispute, then click Continue. 5.Select ‘Item dispute’, click Continue and follow the on-screen instructions. Note: •Generally buyers must wait at least 7 days from the date of payment to escalate a dispute for an item not received •Where an item has not been received, please ensure you have given the seller enough time before opening a dispute https://www.paypal.com/webapps/mpp/first-dispute DO NOT CLOSE THE DISPUTE UNTIL YOU HAVE A CLEARED REFUND OR YOUR ITEM WHATEVER THE SELLER SAYS. ALSO DON'T FORGET TO ESCALATE THE DISPUTE TO A CLAIM WITHIN 20 DAYS IF THE SELLER DOES NOT REFUND. If that does not work then if you funded your paypal payment via a card then contact your card issuer and see if they will do a chargeback for you. ... View more

@VladanB   if you were hacked...... Click on the transaction in your paypal account and use the 'report a problem' link at the bottom to report it as unauthorised if that is what it was. An unauthorised transaction means that your Paypal account was hacked and used without your consent. If Paypal check IP addresses / devices etc and find that it was hacked then yes you should receive your refund. I hope you changed your password and security questions? I hope you ran a virus scan on your computer? Did you respond to a spoof email that allowed your account to be hijacked? I would also be telling my card issuers and bank accounts company that the account was hacked so that they can keep an eye on your account OR remove the financial info involved until things are sorted. Also contact customer services. ... View more

@twiggygomes   SOUNDS LIKE THIS SCAM READ IT AND SEE..........   SCAM. They encourage you to accept a 'direct' Paypal payment and may ask you to send the item internationally. No funds or activity of the transaction shows in your Paypal account and any emails 'may' go into your junk or spam folders. You will get/got a "fake" email that looks as though it is from paypal.....it isn't because they don't actually have a Paypal account and have no intention of paying you. It will say the buyer has paid ...you won't have been paid. They will tell you that the payment is released when you provide paypal with a tracking/shipping number......this won't happen. Paypal NEVER tell you to send an item before the payment is showing in your paypal account. Paypal do not tell you to send trackable, they advise it for selling protection but it is not compulsory. Delete any emails and ignore the scammers. ... View more
