    Angry PayPal SUCKS

    Today I was called by a paypal employee. He informed me that my account was being limited (frozen) because they suspected I had sold something they deemed inappropriate (Dalton)!! They told me my only way to release my account was to comply with there policies and acknowledge there form before they would release my money! They held my money because they did not like something I had for sale! What the hell is this socialist company doing in my life! Now, nothing because i dumped them forever. I would suggest you do the same before they freeze your paypal account because they don't like what you sell. They own ebay as well and they have the same policies. So to anyone who did not know this your in for a rude awakening if you think these two companies are not watching you. They actually went out on the internet and found this web site and other web sites I have visited and told me I had to delete all my posts before they would give me my money. Who here thinks paypal and ebay should avoided at all cost's? Quote (After a recent review of your account activity, it has been determined that

    More likely than not, someone "dropped a dime" on you. Paypal and ebay don't police themselves very well, it cost money. However, if they receive a complaint, they will follow up on it, especially if the COMPLAINT PROVIDES LINKS AND OR SPECIFICS, which they apparently had. Also, they will never tell you they received a tip, they will claim they discovered it themselves. They pretty much depend on the public and some rudimentary software filters...Al

    If someone dropped a dime on him, they should have their ass kicked. Just my 2 cents.

    Someone for SURE told on you bud. I have never had a problem with Paypal ( knock on wood ) but I also make sure to tell the buyer to never mention the word knife in his comments or in his notes.

    Now eBay has pulled my knives in the past, but as Al said, it's a person/s that are turning you in. I don't think that neither really care about the actual knives unless they are autos, but once it's been pointed out, you are toast!!

    Hate it for you, but am glad you decided to post here.. From now on, it's all money orders or bank checks. Unless I know you of course! I don't sell that much anyway, but will be sure to remember this.

    A few years back I bought and sold a pallet of "apple" electronics... Those fuckers at pp held all my funds, over $40k, for 190 days... In the event I wasnt dealing in the right and or if I was defrauding individuals.

    Thus I was out the upfront cash for the merch AND all the profit... I was beyond irate, in fact, I'm getting upset rehashing this buried issue. They would release $6k every now and then as time passed. waiting for "positive" feedback from ebuyers... Wow, I need to shoot thing right now... Thanks alot n8vyc!!!

    imagine calling an 800 number and having some shit bird non-English speaking foreigner attempt to explain why he has decided to hold YOUR money. OK, im done with this topic.
