Paypal Small Claims Court

[Venganza]

Sorry for the late reply. Haven't been able to get back on here in a long time because of life and stuff.

As to your question, it didnt cost me anything because of some connections I have. But even if they do charge you, it is indeed very little.

If it does not cost anything or just a little bit, I think many people would definitely give them a shot.

so finally you got your money back?

Just curious how is it even remotely feasible to bring PayPal to court for such little money? If you really are, the lawyer fees must out weigh whatever 1k they’re holding?

Hello, i am not sure if you can help me but I will try it at least..before I will write a letter to the court.
This afternoon paypal has closed my account. Yesterday , I received an email from them ( because this week i sold used iPhone and my account was imediatelly limited. I gave them all documents they were requested for + tracking number which i sent them another day.) yesterday i received email from them that they cannot confirm tracking number because it hasnot been delivered yet. They will check it once it will be delivered to the buyer. So i thought ok I will wait then. But this morning i received email I am a risk for them and they will close my account. My question is ... why did they do that? What i have done wrong? I am not a ⊗⊗⊗⊗ person the details I gave them were real!!! It is not a stealth account.. I live maybe abroad but i sent them everything they wanted. And now? I must wait 180 days for 300 gbp? Their customer service is poor. It is the worst service i have ever seen. Is there a possibility to help me please??? I really dont want to wait for my money and I definitelly didnt do anything high risk. All documents i can provide. Thank you

[afincho]

yes. Got few of my friends who have holdings. let me know details

[Sebecaa]

My tracking shows it in in transit from ( czech republic to greece)
I also Shared the document from post office i got with paypal.

[Sebecaa]

But why did they do this??? They know i live abroad. They know buyer was from greece.
This i really dont understand :

1. We are reviewing your account and unfortunately your account limitation
cannot be lifted at this time. We need more information about your
account before we can proceed with the appeal process. Please complete
the steps below:

- Please provide proof of delivery for the following transactions
received into your PayPal account:

- Transaction ID:0XP24577AU2765217

To help us respond as quickly as possible, be sure to provide the name
of the shipping company used for each transaction. Also be sure to
reference the name and email address of the buyer associated with the
tracking number, as well as the date and amount of each transaction.

Thanks for your patience and cooperation.

Yours sincerely,

[Sebecaa]

2. This i received today..
We regret to inform you that we're initiating the closure of your PayPal
account. This measure is necessary to protect us from potential
financial losses.

Your right to appeal:

We always perform a thorough investigation before deciding to initiate
the closure of an account. However, we appreciate that from time to time
misunderstandings can happen. If you wish, you can appeal our decision.
Just get in touch with us and let us know. To do so, log in to your
PayPal account and click 'Contact' at the bottom of the page. Select
'Managing My Account' as the topic and 'My account is limited' as the
sub-topic, then send your message.

Your account balance during the account closure period:

This decision means we must oversee the appropriate movement of any
money currently in your account. A gradual approach to account closure
allows us to part ways, while considering any liabilities that may
arise. Our aim is to review any valid buyer claims lodged against you.
We must allow enough time for claims to be opened as these can take
several months to be reported and resolved.

How will the process work?

[Sebecaa]

Post office is not Superman it also take some time.
I provided all details + it is not stealth account but account with my real info
Sold only used iPhone for 300 gbp

[Sebecaa]

It is not tracking number. Its number from order

[Sebecaa]

https://m.17track.net/en/track#nums=RR278807047CZ

This is tracking

[Sebecaa]

I have paypal with czech address
Everything was real not stealth

[Sebecaa]

I will try. But i dont think they will. Paypal are thives. Especially when they close your real account

[dom03]

We are all in the same boat, lodge a complaint through your local financial complaints organisation in your country so, paypal have to respond within 2-3 weeks with a valid answer to them. This will add pressure to them and in some cases you may get lucky and have ur account funds releases, also message them from the message centre in PayPal during your local business hours and they will respond back (eventually) and request the email address for your country for executive paypal escalation and write to them also.

Hello,

I really do not know if you can help me but at least I can try. My gmail and paypal account was hacked and I lost all money. Interesting is that my account was permanently limited and money there were held by eBay for 21 days as I sold iPhone. My question is, will paypal help me to give my money back? I cannot log in as hacker added there security app systém.
I have never Shared my password anywhere. Can somebody please help me?

Ps my bank account or debit credit card wasnt added on paypal.

[Sebecaa]

I sent them many emails but no reply. I want to call them tomorrow but i have heard they dont need to help

[Sebecaa]

Yes now i registered again and i must call to them and speak to support. I will call tomorrow and we will see.

[Sebecaa]

I used my phone everything is same i just cannot log in because he added there security app number which i dont have and i received email he transfered all money. From permanently limited account for me it is impossible and he did.

[Sebecaa]

I cannot find out i only got email he transferred funds. He had to add some card or bank. I will let you know more tomorrow I am just in shock because this happened once in my life.

Has anyone actually been able to collect from Paypal after winning in small claims court in the US? That's what I want to know. I can't sue them in CA as I am in MA so how would I collect if I won? They could just ignore the judgement. Like they ignored my Demand letter. And BBB complaint. F***S I really hate them and want them dead

Hi I believe PayPal have legal rights to keep money for upto the 180 days 6 month I have had a look in to it and it seems thay are allowed
