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!

Am glad there is another site up against eBay and Paypal. I too will post my story, as it were. Imagine, they tried to scare off another 2 new websites: esuckbay.com in sending them a scare-letter. The other site: paysuckpal.com is waiting to hear from them too, since Guess both are worrying a little now.

Ebay screwed me royally today by INDEFINITELY suspending my 2 accounts with them for: associated with the following suspended account: XXXXX

I have no affiliation with that xxx account. Have no clue therefore why I was suspended.

Paypal 2 weeks ago, right after I was confirmed and had already made them money, did the very same thing to me and in the process froze my money in that account. I was all ready and set to take my case to the Att. General in NE when suddenly, after I’d mailed them umpteen docs, one day I found my account openened again.

And, guess what ? No explanation whatsoever as to why they reopened it. I guess they don’t need to give you reasons for either action.

I am totally fed-up with both. If anyone here can direct me where to take my eBay complaint, or has a success story already, pls. leave me a message on this board here.

Thanks for listening too
