Paypal - bunch of idiots

[shambles]

Dear Sir,

I recently made 4 $1000 payments via Paypal. These were erroneoulsy blocked. I wrote confirming my desire for this transaction to complete. However, without further communication and without orders from myself the money was refunded to my bank account. When I paid the money out I was charged £518.02 per $1000 by my bank, but when the money was recredited I only received £488.22 per $1000. I therefore lost a total of £119.20. Paypal could have refunded the money to my Paypal balance and saved me the loss I incurred or ideally completed the original transaction. My loss here was therefore entirely caused by Paypal's unauthorised transaction. Unless this money is credited to my account within 14 days I shall be commencing proceedings in court for its recovery and advertising the problems Paypal has caused through all available media. I await your reply and the redress to which I am entitled.

Yours faithfully, Alexander Hydes

Why do you post here? It's DNF, not PayPal's support center.

I did send it to them. I felt like letting everyone else know what a bunch of cynts they are too.

Try calling them, but PayPal really needs a class action lawsuit.
On the other hand, your payee may have involved in some sort of scam/fraud etc.

I don't particularly object to their blocking the transaction. That was just annoying, but can't blame them for having safeguards. My objection is to their refunding the money to my bank account without authorisation, when for instance they could have refunded the cash to my balance

 

[AlienGG]

Well, they can't refund it to your PayPal balance. The payments go like straight lines. They always go back to where they come from.
It's just sad that int'l currencies exchange is involved.
