I agree. It appears to be attempting to use two exceptions to the DoNotCall registry and the Telemarketing Sales Rule -- enforced by both the FCC and the FTC. 1. existing business relationship -- but this only allows communication regarding the account, not promotional communications. 2. written agreement - but, this kind of shrink wrap automatic agreement won't qualify as written agreement. It is even listed as one of the 'not sufficient' examples on their website. (FTC I think) So, I have placed my number on the DoNotCall registry. If this purported 'agreement' is abused, I will report the violation to both the FTC and the FCC. PayPal, this is bad business. Trying to bully your customers into accepting behavior that universally **bleep** people off is a way to lose good will fast. Maybe it is time to finally take a look at this bitcoin stuff. Very Sincerely, NoSpamPlease!
