Typical Scumbag Paypal

what a load of ** what the fuck is wrong with those *** fuck this just made me angry... that is just bs, for real...

wow.. that's unbelievable
thx for posting this article, found it interesting and retarted at the same time xD

That's fucked up.

FUCKING GAMESTOP!
Er I mean FUCKING PAYPAL!

Wow, that's really messed up. Hopefully when this is all resolved paypal will end up refunding the money they took for their fees.

They might be a dick but they try their best from not letting other people rip you off, that's their job.

Charity isn't a worthy cause? News to me.

We can help.

I think I'm gonna be sad and pissed off for a while now. Thanks for the article though.

PAYPAL: "You can use the donate button to raise money for a sick cat, but not poor people."

Lol, I am really happy that I am not using paypal anymore.

another reason not to use paypal, fcking assholes. god I'm glad I never use paypal...

Glad to hear it Paypay, you gave me a motive to never use your functions :3

Paypal is well known for being a bag of dicks about stuff like this. They'll freeze your account whenever they feel like it, and once that happens there's nothing they will do to help you fix the situation. I've seen it happen to other people several times for different reasons, and they tend to take drastic and permanent action without even checking if those reasons are valid. Paypal quite simply hates its customers.

There have been documented cases of people getting their accounts frozen for:

• Receiving, spending, or withdrawing more money than usual (planning on doing some big spending during the Steam Christmas sale? If you buy too much in one day, your account might get frozen)
• Getting a complaint filed against them (whether those complaints were valid or not)
• Filing a complaint against someone else (again, they don't care if it's valid or not)
• Having account details (name, address, or anything like that) that are similar to an already suspended account
• Sending or receiving money to/from someone who had their account suspended - even if that person was suspended for scamming YOU in the first place (that's right, Paypal can punish you for being the VICTIM of a crime)
• Being related to someone who had their account frozen
• Not answering the phone when a Paypal representative calls you
• Using Paypal buttons on a site Paypal doesn't like
• Initiating a chargeback for any reason, even if it's perfectly legit
• Being angry/rude to a Paypal representative on the phone
• etc.

And once your account gets frozen, there's like a 10% chance it'll ever get restored to its original state.

They usually get away with it because their user agreement states they can freeze your account for any reason at all.

Can I has monies for kidz? - nope.avi, there are too many of them lately - feed your sick cat instead, thanks.

Paypal is so full of shit and fail. Guess I will exhaust my current existing balance and then delete my account. (And urge webshops/sellers to move away from Failpal.)

Wow.
That's horrible. Off to court, I'd say.

Well, after some bad PR (and a most unwelcome anniversary), this issue seems resolved now.

sick cats are still sweeter than some jew kids from poland.

Things like this are why I stopped using paypal. It's run by a bunch of cunts.

It also took a huge amount of preasure to get Paypal to shut down accounts of christian "charities" that were extremely homophobic. And even after a petition, they still haven't shut down all of them. Hopefully its reversal of its decision is consistent and done right.

NOTE: There's an UPDATE on that post!
