Not sure if this helps, but... One of the times I called PayPal, they noticed that the credit card was not in my wallet as expected. However, I explained the error I was getting, and they finally created a support ticket. Five days later, I was able to apply for the cashback card, but I never heard back on the support ticket. Not sure if they truly did something or if it was just timing. The support at both companies isn't great, as we know. When I call Synchrony, they flat out tell me it's just closed, nothing they can do. However, when I call again and get someone different, they give a completely different response, willing to help, check a few things out, and actually try. It's pretty much the same thing with PayPal; the last person I talked to actually tried and escalated it. In previous calls, I was told it's not there, so it's not their problem, and that's all they could do. I don't get it; it just depends on who you get when you call, unfortunately... ... View more

Hello! I had a PayPal Extra Mastercard Credit that "fell" off my account in 2022. I am trying to get the card again but everytime I try to apply I get the below error. I called PayPal, they said it is a Synchrony Bank issue. When I call Synchrony, they say its a PayPal issue and that they don't have the permissions to view the cards associated on my account - which I totally understood and figured since they are separate entities. ** The card does not show under my "Wallet" in my account since it was closed and would have no balance.     So im not sure what to really do, I suppose I could create a new PayPal account entirely and apply on that but would be nice to have on my normal account along with my PayPal Credit.   Any other ideas? Looks like you already have a PayPal Mastercard or Smart Connect You can only have one PayPal Mastercard or Smart Connect at a time, so we can't offer you another one today. ... View more

I have now fallen victim to this as well. I went to send a friend some money and noticed my bank account was unlinked. I will be getting rid of PayPal soon. I got an email that it was removed the day before I had to make a PayPal credit payment. I tried following the yodlee payment thing so i had it to make payment since it was a Friday and didn’t have to wait till Monday for a deposit and it didn’t work. I went to the bank the same day had to pay for checks on top of a expedited fee. Sent the check out as soon as I got them. Now I’m out $35 for checks plus a late $40 credit payment. I have never been late for a payment ever in my life! And this was for no reason besides PayPal deciding to remove my bank… After I finish my last 4 months of pay over time with PayPal credit, I will be closing my PayPal accounts. PayPal used to be so good! ... View more

Negative Balance

Hello!   I've seen mixed answers on this so I'm sure things have changed. What is the current "timeline" to resolve a negative balance? I had sent $800 F&F to a friend, when it hit the bank the next day the bank declined which resulted it being negative on PayPal. After talking with the bank they said that PayPal reversed the transaction. When I talk to PayPal they say that the bank declined it so I'm not exactly sure what happened. I have had my bank account linked for a few years now. There was more then enough money in the bank account. Anyways in my bank account, I have the charge on hold until up to 5/20/2021. Is it okay to wait that long to resolve the balance? I refuse to resolve it until I know that the hold is released and the fund are "visually" back in my account.   Should I let PayPal know of this info? Would they stop calling if I tell them this info?   Thanks!  ... View more

For years now I have made multiple monthly payments for rent and other expenses using PayPal. All of a sudden every time I try to send using my bank it wants to send as an e-check. Has been wanting to do that for 2 months now. I have been doing cash payments instead but just wondering why all of a sudden PayPal would change this? Really annoying. I also wanted to use debit as I know that would be instant but fees are crazy. Any insight would help as PayPal customer service hasn't been able to give me a clear answer.   From my chat with Paypal, they stated that it is the security system doing it and that if I proceed with an e-check it would go back to normal as long as it clears. Well, I did multiple e-checks, they cleared successfully, but no change at all.    Any help would be great!      ... View more

@kernowlass   I only have 2 that are Ebay and Vultr (Web Server Provider) both have been linked for a couple years, neither of these were them. The payments were sent to 5 different emails. With random amounts. It would of had to been someone access to my computer/have access to my paypal details since used my account and same IP. This happened about 2 years ago same issue, same random accounts but was only around $1000 instead of $2000 and paypal decided it was authorized also. I suck it up because there was nothing i could do but now its double what it was last time and just lost of what i should do. ... View more

Yesterday and The day before have been a lot going on with my paypal account. Multiple Transactions where made using my account between these two days that were unauthorized and sent to random people through a service called Xcoins. I used Xcoins a couple months ago to purchase digital currency but didnt end up sticking with it since fee was like 15% of what you want. Now all the sudden 5 charges were made using my paypal credit account over $2000+. I filed a claim and i lost because of IP made to those purchases were made using other legitimate purchases that i made in the past. I purchased a malware protection service to get rid of any malware and ti was successful in getting rid of unwanted stuff but my real question is, How do i defend myself in this situation when nothing adds up right for me?  ...
