Re: Paypal Australia - ASK ME ANYTHING
I went to AFCA they were absolutely useless and dumb. Not helpful in helping release my held funds.
After 6-8 months back and forth they did not side with me, and sided with the corrupt PP organisation and did not get my funds released.
They stated in their terms and conditions PP can hold the funds indefinitely and never release them even after 180 days, and they cannot do anything to stop them.
I am pretty sure that's illegal to hold funds indefinitely by PayPal, oh well AFCA did not help but only stated if I provided the necessary ID documentation and have it verified then PP should hopefully release the funds as that's fair. I already did provide identity docs such as Bills and DL but they said they were not validated. maybe they tried verifying them? idk. But I have still had success getting other accounts verified without ID being validated.
I am going to wait until the new 180 day release date and see if the funds auto-release themselves, failing that I will try to get the ID required (somehow).
They really are an evil company, and I hope everyone takes advantage of them in some way. PayPal seem to twist their rules and policies, and they say whatever suits them at the time. I know for a fact they lie, cheat, and steal from their "customers".
I still would encourage anyone to contact AFCA if PP held your funds unfairly as at least it will be another complaint on their record, and you may have better luck.
Good luck boys.
