My advice with PayPal is to not use it...
Or only use it to make payments... With a real credit card.

Hey just wanted to say I like paypal and use it for everything exept Amazon because there dont have it as a option. But i like it and never had a issue with it and there protection is on top i think, only had 1 or 2 issues with seller and their fix it and protect me not the seller so my opinion is Paypal is the best thing ever 😊👍 ^^ Happy Holidays 🎅🎄
Just wanted to give my opinion on it because i rly like it never had problems with paypal direct and so i dont understand your hate about it ^^

Well, mornally, there is no issue, but when it does happen, it is impossible to reach a real person to get support. It once triple charged me for a transaction (3x debit in my bank, 1 transaction on Paypal), and I ended up having to contact them on Twitter for support, wherr they advised me to call my bank to reverse the duplicate transaction.

mhh ok, but i use paypal for not having to deal with debit card in the first place and there dont get any card information when iam not wrong about it. I just pay with paypal credit and when its empty i goes direct to my bank account but i always use paypal credit i can use Giropay to instantly transfer money on to my paypal with 0 fees so i can pay trow paypal credit. And when something where wrong like you said you can direct click on it and report a problem and then it goes to them where there protect you and the seller has to proof that he is right. But yeah never have problem beyond that where i need to talk to a real person and will probably never will be because how I do it i dont can see how a problem will arise. And when there charge you 3 times on that and 1 time paypal just contact your bank and there will block the 3x so you can show them you payed already trow paypal i dont see the problem there ^^

Somehow they got into my account once (if you google they do got leaks), took some calling back and forth but they refunded me with no problem.
I really suggest therefor not to attach your bankaccount to PayPal,. but if you deposit small amounts, for the rest i never had issues with them, and often it's the only solution for payment here.

thats bad but which site has never been leaked Facebook , Google & Co but yeah thats not good i dont want to have all my money there but eneugh to pay for what i need not more. But the refund with no problem is nice so good support i guess. I would do a two factor authentication so even when there has your data there need to hack your phone or email too. nothing is safe on the internet but thats no excuse ^^ . I think you need to atache a bank account to your paypal when you open a account but its so long ago idk.

Might vary on country, we got a thing called Ideal payment, it's also what i use to deposit money into that account, others might not have that.

Since you mention it I should warn you about Google auth & PayPal! If you switch phones GL getting the auth switched!
I spent 3 hours on the phone with tech support trying to get a damn manager to fix it but no...
In my case; I got a new OnePlus 7 Pro. Switched Google Auth itself no problem. Same with other accounts. I go to switch PayPal on there site; nope. Sorry; something went wrong!
Since the battery in my old phone is toast & I don't want to keep it just for PayPal auth!
I said what about deleting my account & making a new one? Nope 180 days of no card fraud protection if you use the same email or same card. The whole reason I use PP is so I don't have to give my card # to so many sites. I asked; "So in other words I'm screwed right?".
They answered "Yes". At least they were honest.
So if you go to switch to a new phone, etc. PayPal often will have a problem moving your 2FA. I saw it all over the forums there as well. No one else got a good resolution! Everyone had same result as me.
Either shit out of luck or left with no 2FA & unable to add a new one. They'll delete the old one but you won't be able to add a new one in many cases. Just so you're aware that it can be a common issue!
Sorry for the length; I just wanted to warn you. I hope it's useful info. 🙂

If you opted to use an authentication app when you enabled 2FA but are unable to access the app at the time of login, you can have a code sent to your mobile device via SMS by clicking Text a code instead.
Just use SMS to begin with and you will have far less problems.

To late for that now. Thanks for the suggestion though. 👍
If Auth apps can't be transferred between phones they shouldn't be listed as supported is basically what I was trying to say. 🙂
I just wanted to warn them that even though it says Auth apps are supported; after reading the forums it's very common to find that ppl can't transfer the Auth app to a new phone. Even with the help of Tech Support as was my case. As such I don't believe they should be listed as supported & try to let others know of problems they may encounter. Hopefully that's more clear now. 🙂
My apologies if it wasn't clear. I'm autistic & not always clear in my communication. I tend to be very effusive in my responses. 🤦♂️
Thanks again for the suggestion though. I hope you had a happy holiday & have a nice day & weekend.

Merry xmas. =)
Why don't you fund your account with giftcards? Those can be bought at local stores with cash. You would be able to make your marketplace transactions without needing a middleman.
Did PP state any reasons for putting your account on hold?

Are you a Nigerian Prince? Cause this sounds like a classic scam, no offense.

Paypal freezes the money in accounts at random, and have been doing so almost since they were founded. it's a big part of how they became so wealthy (stealing peoples money and then saying its for 'security' reasons or other such nonsense). Good luck.

Just contact them by phone, tell the problem they solve it within 24 hours never have any problems with it.

So I need some help with PayPal
My question: Buy anyone games during the sale with PayPal? Then I need your help. Not to buy games, I need it for marketplace and I pay your games with other payment. 1:1
