Does anyone have any experience with negative PayPal balances in the UK?
I've got a -£1300 balance.
What can PayPal do about this?
The cards I have on the account are a CC which has since had the card number changed (so a charge would be refused, I presume) and debit card (current but I keep no money in the account, no overdraft so a charge would be refused).
Worse case experience please as to what they can do (or rather *DO* do.. do they really bother chasing the money etc).
Thanks!

Yep, info is genuine as this is my own PayPal that I've had 10+ years.
How long until you get chased for the payment, i.e debt recovery?
And will debt recovery accept a small regular payment?
Thanks so much for answering my questions - this forum is a godsend!
Also, if the PP account goes into debt recovery, will any past eBay accounts the PP is linked to be suspended? Even though they're not actively being used?
In my own experience I have received nothing from one of my paypal accounts that hit over $6,000 into the negative.
Around £4,500.
No letter no calls nothing!
The debt was due to them reversing a transaction for a site that was sold to someone using paypal the person got the site and then disputed the sale so they robbed me basically.
I put my case to paypal and said I would more than welcome any court action.
I told them as soon as I receive one letter form a debt recovery agency I will write back to them demanding court action so I could present the facts that the site was sold to this person and I was the one who was robbed.
However if its a genuine debt you owe then best to just call the debt company tell them the situation and arrange a payment plan, if they say no just ask for court action as that's all the court will make you do anyway.

Debt recovery will accept that.
