Here's why its been removed, IN MY OPINION.   PAYPAL doesn't want to make it easy to check that the balance is correct. That way they could, if they wanted, cheat us and miscalculate wrong balance and we wouldn't know it when we withdrawd our balance.   With a running balance showing everyone can easly check to make sure the balance is correct. With it gone you have to manually open each transactions and calculate each transaction. ... View more

I posted this complaint then I found a few others like yours so I'll post the same response so you know what happened to it. If enough people call paypal and complain maybe they'll put it back in.   It has been removed. I called yesterday(5-2-18) and requested to talk to a supervisor. He said it was removed, I said paypal is like a bank and banks "MUST" show the running balance to users. He said they was not a bank and did not have to show a running balance on the overview. He showed me a way to see it and I told him I am not going to "JUMP THRU HOOPS" to see my running balance after each transaction. THIS IS BS. ... View more

I ask that anyone who views this post please post if you used the "details" button so you can see your running balance. Most people I believe like to see their balance after each transaction.   The way it is now, its like getting your checking statement from your bank without the statement showing a running balance. Would you like your bank to just show withdraws and deposits but no ending balance. ... View more

  You can not see a running balance on overview page, its been removed.   On the overview home page you could see the balance/paypal fees after every transaction by clicking on "details" in the upper right corner of the Activity page. Last month Paypal removed the "details" button so now you can no longer see any balance. For those who may not of used it, it looked exactly like like a  bank statement you receive in the mail. It showed each transaction(withdraw or deposit), your paypal fee for that transaction, then a running balance. This has all be removed. Now if you want to see something similar to this feature you have to "JUMP THRU HOOPS" to find it. The PP supervisor I talked to said the "details" button was removed last month, April 2018. I ask the supervision why it was removed, its like paypal wants to make it harder to double check their account to make sure paypal didn't make a mistake. I told the Supervisor a Bank must easily provide this information, his reply was we are not a bank and do not have to. Now if you have to click each transaction to see the Paypal fees, this is time consuming. Every paypal fee and running balance used to be shown for each transaction all on one page without having to open then close each transaction. ... View more

  My buyer joined Yesterday has (0)fb and right after he joined ebay he bought my item, 5 minutes later he sent a cancelation request to me.   Why is the seller punished for a buyers cancelation. And DO NOT say I agreed to the cancelation so I should pay the 30cent fee, thats BS. If a seller refused to cancel then the buyer will probably retaliate in some way. He may file a NAD when he gets the item then the seller has to pay shipping back or he will probably leave a Neg. SO the seller has no other option then to agree to the concellation.   Paypal is no better than Efee(Ebay), all they care about is making a buck, or should I say 30. When a buyer cancels paypal should charge them the 30 cents not the seller.   ITS NOT ABOUT THE 30 cents its the principle of the matter, that is my complaint ... View more
