PayPal
Account Limited for 180 Days Before Christmas Gifts

Business & Finance

I became sick and was unable to work. I wanted to give my two small children a Christmas despite my financial situation, so I decided to use my watch repairing skill to make a little money on eBay so I could buy gifts for them. About a month into it, I did okay. I profited maybe 200 dollars, and my feedback is 100 percent. Several times I withdrew money to cover shipping costs.

My last attempt, for $25, failed. I received an email stating to contact my bank because my bank reported a problem. That was untrue! My bank said there were no problems, and PayPal did not even attempt a withdrawal, so that email was fraud. The next email stated my account is now permanently limited and that if I get no complaints after 180 days, I can withdraw my money. In other words, they are stealing the only money I have honestly earned, and there is nothing I can do about it.

I emailed every executive and every department, and all I get is an automated message stating my appeal is denied. So now I am contacting several attorneys and have also contacted a TV show. I know it is not a large amount of money, but the look on my kids' faces when there are no presents will hurt me the same as if I lost millions. I hope to tell my story on national TV. Hopefully one day PayPal will take responsibility for ruining the lives of honest children and adults.
