For the first time since I began working many many years ago I am unemployed. I recently had a stroke in part due to the stress but also of course from being hounded by creditors. I haven’t been sleeping due to a combination of pain and the afore-mentioned stress, usually averaging about 2 non-contiguous hours of “sleep” per night. Early this morning I was so exhausted I was actually deep asleep for the first time since the stroke. I was awakened a few minutes after 0800 by Paypal Credit. Any attorneys want to represent me in a harassment/health endangerment lawsuit? Seriously though is there any way to have PP call later in the day so I am not at risk of literally having another stroke? And in case someone’s obtuse, while I probably would win a lawsuit, I’m not litigious and not at this point planning a lawsuit. I owe a debt, I pay my debts (unless I have no income at all, like now, but I WILL pay my debts when I get a job) and PP is entitled to contact me to arrange payment. I really am worried about having a stroke triggered by an early morning “gimme money even though you’re unemployed” phone call.  ... View more

I'd really like to register my mobile phone to receive alerts and verification data in case of issues with my account. Unfortunately as I was getting ready to register, I noticed the suggestion to register the phone included text saying it would be used for "other paypal news". My mobile phone is paid for by my company. I can use it for some personal needs, but getting daily spam from paypal would not be a good thing. I also have my text alert set to a very loud alert because those messages coming from my company are work-related. Since I'm on a rotating shift, I even messages coming in during the day could be sleep-interrrupting. Is there a way to restrict messages from paypal to my mobile device so it's only used for security messages/verification? ... View more
