I had a retailer ACCIDENTALLY charge me twice for an item, and am now forced to wait 3-5 days for a refund of money that was taken from my account without my knowledge. $600 to be exact. Their problem, now I'm being punished. An honest mistake on the retailer's part, some real BS by PayPal. This has overdrafted my account, and now I face overdraft fees on other transactions I had done already. There would be plenty in my account had they just returned my money. Now the retailer is hurt by their mistake, because I'm going to shout it from the rooftops: Not my fault, PayPal, absolute load of crap for you to hold money that you should not have in the first place! Beware, buyers, it ain't all it seems to be. I'll gladly use a credit card next time, and give Visa the fees, they stand by their service. Buyer protection my arse. I hope someone sees this before they delete it for being derogatory of their service.
