How Does PayPal Make Money With My Money?

According to the San Francisco Chronicle, there are approx. 100,000 complaints outstanding at PayPal (Are any of these yours?). In many instances disputes can run on for months leaving people frustrated and out of pocket as they are unable to access their accounts. So what happens to the millions of dollars tied up in frozen accounts and disputes? Well, here is a clip from the San Francisco Chronicle that basically sums it up:

U.S. District Judge Jeremy Fogel of San Jose refused to dismiss a lawsuit that seeks class-action status on behalf of thousands of PayPal customers nationwide. A common allegation is that the company brushes off or stalls customer grievances for months and meanwhile freezes the customer's account and pockets the interest (So that's how they make their money!). No wonder they freeze so many accounts!

Writer Wishes To Remain Anonymous

My band broke up, and I said I would take the responsibility of selling our gear.

I CURRENTLY have 3000.00 in PayPal with a limit on it, stated that items I was selling are risky of fraud. Well I sent my items out, I didn’t give tracking numbers because I had USPS and didn’t pay the extra fee (IDIOT).

Sooo…it’s been a month limit now, they want me to wait 180 days to receive my money. BULL****!!!

Do NOT use PayPal, this is rediculous. I have all positive feedback from the buyers, they’ve received their items. HOW can I fix this???

Very upset
