Fed up with waiting for my money to be realeased. Skint with no money for fuel, and a pregnant wife in the house, and PayPal wont realease MY money. Fact is when I do get MY money, or even paid from work I will hire a lawyer in Luxemborg and take paypal to court. This is the biggest scam I have encountered. Im a verified member here, phone ,email, address, bank account,, I have 100% feedback on your partners website, cause legally you are partnered/affiliated with Ebay, wheather you like it or not, have sent the item, uploaded tracking, buyer got the item, left me feedback(positive of course) and still, 'payment on hold'. All so paypal can get abit of interest off MY money. Its beyond a joke. No where, no even in the T and C on your partners website does it state that I would have to wait this long for MY money. Ebay released the funds the same day the buyer received the item.(it was 13hrs after) And its been more than 48hrs since, (close to 5days at the time of writing this.) yet still paypal, or as i will refer to the company from now on, scam-u-pal, hasn't released MY funds. I have jumped through every one of scam-u-pal's hoops, yet no, havn't got MY funds. Scam-u-pal got their cut, Ebay is demanding their cut now, But at least they are up front about it. If Scam-u-pal pulled there finger out this wouldn't be an issue. The company dosnt even have a decent phone number to call. Just an automated machine, reading out the BS that is written here. no where was I told of these terms before listing my item on Ebay. Yet that makes it alright. Time for Scam-u-pal to get a wake up call, wake up through the courts. Never again will i use this sham of a company. And once I have extracted my money and legal cost I will be closing my account and telling everyone im in business with to avoid your company and use sagepay , portalpay or some other company. its not an industry standard of 21 days. That is only scam-u-pal. Sagepay, 14days max. The only reason its 21 days is so scam-u-pal can have an account balance that is higher for the most of the month so the private bank can give interest on the largerer amount in the bank account. The buyer protection line is BS as well, as say there was a dispute, scam-u-pal have taken there cut, so the total amount that could be refunded is less than what I was paid. If it was 'buyer protection' the fee wouldn't come off till the hold was lifted. Really really disappointed by the whole process to be honest. sorry for the wall of text.
