Re: how can paypal keep our money and earn interes...

Frustration with agreements that has to be signed in order to do business, which is so one sided it should be outlawed, can lead to many objections. Which is visible and experienced on many platforms from a vast amount pf Paypal users. Stating that we must not use the system just because it is unjust and biased does not address the problem, but rather shows the arrogance and unacceptable business practices of Paypal. You should try to be on the other side of the coin before answering and/or offering advise. ... View more

answered like a true Paypal pawn. It is not appropriate just because it is hidden in clause 357 revision 124 of an agreement you HAVE to sign in order to use the service. This does not make it acceptable to roughshod rip off anyone and anybody using the service, This just makes it profitable for Paypal and its bed-pal Discogs. Nit JUST or FAIR. Paypal even charges the user commission on the taxes that Discogs retains and pays over to the countries. I suppose this is also in another clause 357 revised 124 times - Johan ... View more

Thanks Friend, I checked them out and will use for transactions. My only problem is that Discogs, where I have more than 14000 vinyl listed seems to be in bed with Paypal and does not offer other payment options but Paypal. My vinyl community and I are investigating starting our own website to advertise our vinyl. As Discogs is as arrogant as Paypal. Collectively we have more than 350000 vinyl in stock. ... View more

Totally agree, Paypal has become a very "Dodgy" and rip-off way of buying and/or selling. They withhold funds for periods of time on some or other ruse that they are "protecting the buyer/seller" whilst earning millions on interest while funds they did not earn or generate lays in their account. Even the "message center" is USELESS as it gets programmed to ALWAYS deny certain customers access to agents. Especially when you have contacted them regarding problems before.  ... View more

How can paypal keep funds of over $300.00 for an undisclosed period of time from their client?. These funds were generated by me with NO input from Paypal, they have already taken their commision on the funds, AND the taxes that has to be paid over. Now they are earning interest on millions of our dollars in their account?????. When they do finally pay over these amounts, where is the interest that we have lost????? This seems to be the biggest scam I have ever seen. ... View more

Paypal assisted Fraud

Paypal is assisting buyers to defraud sellers. Buyer report disputes to Paypal and get refunded, They then receive the goods and just ignore the Seller's messages. Paypal just shrugs it's shoulders and states that it is between the seller and the buyer. Why then did paypal refund the buyer when all tracking numbers. Proof of adresse, receipts of postage paid and printouts from Postal services was provided. The so called "SELLER PROTECTION" is nothing but a SCAM. If you try to report this. it is mission impossible, The resolution center does not allow you to open a dispute. The message center so called assistant hangs up for hours on end. Paypal are scam artists ... View more

disputes

I have received a number of disputes by buyers through paypal. Notwithstanding the provision of tracking numbers, communication with the Postal service confirming the package has been shipped AND supplying proof of payment of shipping and the correct shipping adres, Paypal still refunded the buyers. Then proceeded to charge me an additional fee for having too many disputes. This is surely the lowest form of business practice I have ever seen. The world is in a worldwide pandemic. This has the result that parcels are delayed. Paypal seems to be oblivious to this other than lining their pockets on the back of other people's misery. When the parcels ere duly delivered, and the sellers don't get refunded by the buyer, paypal writes this off as not their problem. This is nothing short of Paypal assisting the buyers to defraud the sellers ... View more

Re: BIASED PAYPAL TOWARDS THE BUYER

I suppose it is also acceptable practice for Paypal to be making money out of the misery other people suffer because of the pandemic. It is justifiable " business practice" to charge a dispute fee because a seller has disputes, which has absolutely nothing to do with how the seller conducts his business, but is due to long delivery times brought on by the regulations surrounding mail in different countries because of the pandemic. This is the lowest form of business practice I have ever seen. ... View more

Once again Paypal has decided a case in the buyers favour, because tracking information is regarded as INVALID. This implies that Paypal regards the information supplied as fraudulent and the seller s a liar for supplying such information. The information can easily be verified by accessing the website of the South African Post Office. There is no justification for this blatant defamation of character of the seller. ... View more
