Any account limitation comes automatically with a hold of up to 180 days.
"Very severe infractions" must include any kind of connection to any kind of previously banned paypal or ebay accounts.
And we all know that bans from either of these companies don't come with any real reasons. It only comes with their automated explanations that recite the rulebook without giving you a proper explanation.
If paypal did things properly we wouldn't need this website nor would we need stealth accounts.
And there are lots of examples of perfectly legit properly run businesses having paypal problems - sometimes to the edge of bankruptcy
| Exactly. I dont think that poster actually read in to the petition at all.
oompaloompa - Some good points there, good summarising.
Maybe a fairer way of having reserves for chargebacks is looing at how many chargebacks the user had on their account within the time it was active, and use that as the basis for monye being held. You cant hold £5k of a charities money, especially not when all the payments where gifts because, they where a charity, so no chargebacks.
They are a financial institution that skirts around the law, so like all criminal activity, don't do the crime if you cant do the time. If PayPal gets stung, its their own fault.
