Small Court agains Paypal
Hello,
I belive there is a simlar thread but i want to share my expeireince and keep this up to date.
Mid march I opened a PP acc and it got restricted after reciving few payments. After sending them all the requiered docuemtents they said they will close the account and hold the money for 180 days.
After contacting their escalation department they confirmed me that the action taken was correct and the suspension will not be lifted. The reason for the suspension was a to high risk involved with the paypal account and paypal wanted to protect themself from financial loss.
Papal has the right to hold your money for 180 days if you break their terms of use, however as I already mentioned paypal confirmed that it was their own descion to close the account due an internal risk assessment (which is a confirmation that there was no break of the terms).
So after paypal replied me i made a claim online which is very easy and straight forward (check more details here https://www.gov.uk/make-money-claim). I do not agree to wait for 180 days to get my money and i want it as soon as possible. There was around 1k GBP on the paypal and the court fee was 60 GBP.
the Defendant (Paypal) has 2 weeks to answer on my claim to the court or they can ask to extend this period for another 2 weeks.
So after 1 week they extended the period for 2 weeks and they took a solicitors for the claim. I am waiting now paypal to respond to the court until the end of may.
I will update this thread as soon as i have more information
