PayPal
Hacked Account, $2000 Coverage Limited to $200, Slow Refunds

Miscellaneous

I have bought many things, maybe near $2000 or more over time, and maybe near $1000 or more this year. I do not like being abused. I cannot remember how many good things I bought and how many bad things I bought, but maybe a large amount were more bad things than good.

When you find yourself in trouble, PayPal can wear a mask of being kind and helpful when you need your money returned. When someone hacked into my account, it took 3 phone calls before I could get any information about getting my money back, and I had to get my banks to change my accounts and bank cards. When buying something, PayPal will show $2000 coverage, but in small print is the exception: they only give back $200 and promise the rest from the seller. Anyone can be long gone and never seen again, and you may never see the money again, while PayPal will keep saying to wait. PayPal can be silly to talk to. They will tell you it is yours, then complain they owe you nothing.

I find PayPal to be as much of a deception as the sellers can be. From what I know of PayPal, it is not worth buying more than $200 from anyone, to be safe and get your money back. They are too difficult to reason with. They know it is your money, but they do nothing until you complain several times in a day. Then they tell you they will fill out a report and get back to you, and either you get your money back or they make you wait for something that may never happen, your money back.
