arwoodco | 06-18-2012 06:20 PM | Odd Question About How Paypal Treats Big Payments on New Accounts This is my third paypal account, which I have had for about one year.
I get a lot of payments for electronics, powertools, home and garden, etc.
And one thing I noticed is that every single payment over $350 seems to be "unconfirmed".
What is so weird about it is I get lots of payments and so far every single payment that was large was "unconfirmed".
However, on my paypal account that is about 12 years old, I never see such things much. Its pretty much random confirmed and unconfirmed.
SO, what I am wondering is if Paypal is actually just claiming on some bigger payments that the customer is "unconfirmed" to avoid liability on newer paypal accounts.
Sort of conspiratorial, but the fact is, it appears to be the case. Out of about 20+ big payments, not one confirmed yet. |
