I couldn't agree more. I have now resorted to using credit cards and wire transfers to complete purchases that I would otherwise do through PayPal. PayPal's policy makes absolutely no sense. If I have actually demonstrated my reliability by spending $10,000 through PayPal over 5 years, billing through a credit card, why would they feel the need to cut me off when I hit the $10K mark? in fact, I would have hit the $10K mark years ago were I not purposely avoiding PayPal payments! It should be quite the opposite. Anyway, I’ll simply avoid Paypal transactions, work around them or avoid entirely any merchant who doesn’t give me an alternative. Unfortunately, PayPal's inane policy of cutting off someone AFTER they have demonstrated their spending reliability to the tune of $10,000, gives me no choice but to avoid PayPal to the extent I can and reserve my use of it to those increasingly rare situations when it is the lesser of evils.
