PayPal Complaints & Reviews

It is a totally genuine review. Please never use paypal because with paypal your money is never safe.
Paypal has my 1000 $ and it has been 6 months that they are not returning it.
I am calling them every week. I have written thousand mails.
They are assuring me that you money is safe with paypal but i do not want my money to be with paypal. I want it to be with me.
It is totally true like everyone said, they withhold your money and do not give you back. I am not sure when will i get my money back.
Supervisors are just assuring me that we are following up with this personally. But 6 months and no solution.
So if you do not wanna be stuck like me, do not use paypal.

Hi,

Refer transaction receipt no [protected] for $ 165 (Amounts inr rs 11, 346.22) was made through pay pal on 2nd march 2018 at 13:14:37 gmt+5.30 towards 4us visa fee of veer munshi. While waiting for one week found no clue of the payments received by immigration4us and was told that immigration4us does not accept payments through any other gateway except the designated banks in india (City bank and axis bank).
On inquiring from the pay pal office telephonically i almost called their office 4 or 5 times and spoke with 4 officials and finally a dispute was escalated on may 8 2018. Under case no;[protected]. Yesterday i received a mail from pay pal and shockingly the details are copied for your reference as under;

Hi
My first experience with paypal was very bad and horrible and nobody cares about customers and now i am suggested to people don't pay and received any amount through pay pal its looks like a fraud.

My issue is i had purchased a hosting plan from hostinger on 19th of march 2018 and very next day some of the issue in services i take refund amount from hostinger and they immediately credited the amount into my pay pal account and pay pal shown status completed and credit to credit card first of all i have no credit card paid whole amount directly from my bank account and today is 11th of april 2018 not a single penny credit to my bank account.

Thanx

Since the last 3 months i have been getting tax invoice amounting to 10-15% of the amount received. Like for some 17000 inr... My tax invoice is 1700...

Gst is supposed to be levied on the fee amount. Why these exorbitant charges?

I have attached the tax invoice for december and january.

Kindly look into this matter or else i would be forced to stop using paypal and find some other way to get my money back.

Someone contact me on skype and told me to send cv for job.

His skype id - live:usedserverproducts

Email id - [protected]@outlook.com, [protected]@outlook.com

After sending my cv he offered me job of monthly 1200$ salary.

Then after instantly without asking anything, he transferred 6400$ to my paypal account. As per rbi rules in india, paypal is not holding money into paypal account more than 24 hours, so after 24 hours, it got automatic withdraw into my bank account.

After the withdrawal of money, that unknown person sent me other indian bank account details and told me to keep 500$ and transfer remaining amount to other indian bank accounts.

Other indian bank account details:
Icici bank

Current account : v r enterprises
A\c no :[protected]
Ifsc: icic0004184
Pan: cacpg5897d
Gurgaon branch

After sending remaining amount to the above indian bank, that unknown guy has refunded money from paypal by the false claim of an item not received so paypal asked me to send tracking code but i am not seller and i didn't sell anything so how can i provide tracking code?

Then after paypal has refunded money to him so that unknown fraudster get whole money bank as well as that fraudster got money in his other indian bank account so he doubled his money but paypal has deducted money from my paypal account and right now there is negative balance in my paypal account.

So paypal is always giving decision in favor of frauder to get high commission they don't think about victims and they are not stopping to ban such a frauder

Never accept payments on paypal.

I am receieving payments through paypal as advance for my export of goods. This payment gets credited to my account through citi bank. So for clearing shipping bills my home bank i. E. Indusind asks for firc/advice.
Now, with our purpose code p0103 (P0103 is advance receipts against export contracts (Export of goods only), citibank has rejected & returned our application saying that purpose does not march with paypal records.

Citi bank firc/advice comes with purpose code p0104.

But since its an advance payment agianst export of goods so my bank is not accepting firc and is saying that we can accept this if purpose code is p0103.
I tried to change the purpose code in my paypal account profile but there is no option except selecting cross border sales of goods.

Please fix purpose code in all my payments since oct, 2017, so that firc can be issued with correct purpose code, else i am not able to clear my shipping bills.

Hai friends after reading this one, stop sending money through paypal.

One of my friend transferred 100$ to my account. From that they charged 6.60$.
Ok its no problem. But after that, they showing 1$=62.449. But the real amount of 1$ on this date is (12/11/2017) 65.39.

So totally, my friend send rs.6600. Now i am receiving rs. 5, 962.
For begging like this, if the paypal owner can clean my toilet. I can pay more to him. Stupid...

Yesterday, i just opened an a/c with a website named empowr.com where they r scamming people in the name of giving money by liking posts and pics and all [censored]. I had no idea with it. But i saw numerous indians have a/c there, so thought it to be like fb and many mentioned they earned money through this. The website looked absolutely legit and asked for a paypal verification for transferring my earned money. I verified it since my icici bank card is linked with paypal. Just as i clicked on verfication, instantly 30$ + 2045.23 were deducted from my bank a/c instantly 3 times. I immediately contacted paypal and opened dispute against all the 3 illegal transaction happened through the, they say they r the safest and secured. They r cheaters helping gamblers and criminals of other nations cheating innocent people by openeing business a/c with them. They immediately closed the claims mentioning that status details: this case is closed. The payment was never accepted by the seller. Paypal cancelled the payment and returned the funds to your account. Till now i didn't receive a single rupee back to my a/c. I contacted my bank and told them everything and they blocked my a/c temporarily and said they will start investigating all the illegal transactions happened through paypal. I will also lodge an fir against this fraud scam website named - empowr.com and also paypal and will also notify higher authorities regarding the same. I give day and nights to earn this money, not cheat people like paypal is helping in doing it. Beware, don't open any a/c with paypal and link your bank a/c or debit/credit card. Anytime these cheaters can help their business partners earn money by accessing your bank a/c. I want my money back and for that i ll do whatever i possibly can. I have also shared this bad incident happened with me stating both empowr and paypal in fb and whatsapp and it will start spreading like wild fire when put in social networks. I will file the case against paypal since through them how can these bloody cheaters running illegal website have legal a/c with paypal. U can check 1000z of complaints against this empowr.com. Just go and google it and check it yourself.

Two debit tranctions were made in my bank account with iob derebail br mangalore, by some one through paypal on 24th august 2017.
1) ecom - paypal james b [protected] sg-v[protected]inr 1477.96
2) ecom - paypal nidish [protected] sg - v[protected] inr 1679.50
I do not know how these transactions took place whether net banking or card use.
I have not disclosed my pword or transaction pin to any body.
Looks like they have made online purchases looking at the amount. No tractions can be made without banks confirmation of my secret password.
The card was and is with me all the time so could not be used for shopping as the card has to be swiped at the shop.
If net - banking is done then a pin has to be used, which again not disclosed by me.
To make a purchase through any ecom sites a password is to to be used at the payment portal which is confirmed by the bank and payment is made.
I am wondering how this has been done.
So keeping money in banks is not safe any more.
I feel that the bank has security problems with their system or what ever it is.
The bank branch has just frozen my account upon my request and given me a statement of the transactions to enable me to lodge a police complaint. They are not helping in any other manner.
I have lodged a police complaint, but they have no cyber crime wing here, they said.
I am at a loss to as to understand what i should do. I am 74 years old and can not run around all the time.
I request pay pal to give me details of these transactions. I could not connect to them as when ever i calledtheir customer care number i was asked give the otp, which was not possible as i dont have any account with them.
Please help me.

Kindly update my refund status or please let me know what the status is.

PayPal refused to help me with my limitation. They ignored me when I tried to call and they ignored me when I emailed them. I have payments I need to accept from customers and I make my living using PayPal. But does PayPal care? No, they take your money and kick you to the curb and blame you for the cause.

PayPal service is horrible, if you are limited, do not expect to get back on anytime soon. They will ignore you until you go away and never come back.

My account is gone and so is my income. Thanks PayPal.

I had no other option but to use Auction Essistance to go stealth and create another account.

I am Abdul Salam.
I have account with paypal and a link a my icici bank account number.
My colleague send me some money, then paypal automatically withdrawal amount Rs 2700 approx and Rs 15000 to bank account on 16 dec, 2016 and 26Dec, 2016. But till now no money transfered to icicic bank account number.

I did more than 20 times complaints on paypal customer care centre but there is no resolution.

Please let me know I can I get my money back.

Its has been over 2 months now that PayPal is not transferring funds to my bank account.
They are just harassing me by giving lame excuses every day. the fault is there in their system. they every day tell me that give us 7-8 days, funds will be in my account but they fail.
I have made innumerous calls to their customer support but all in vain,

They are so illiterate they don't understand their own system, some says something and then someone has some other excuse.
I m fed up, please help

Paypal limited my account access on 08-Sep-2010. Have contacted customer care several times. They keep on saying it is reviewing. How long do they need to review an account 10 years? Moreover, its not a merchant account and has zero balance in it. No solution as of now.

I have already uploaded the necessary documents as well long ago.

I am a manufacturer of replicas. I have open a paypal account in jan 2016.
in there policy they have not mentioned anything saying that manufacturer cannont open an account.

Due to all this I have been mentally harassed from past 3 months I am running behind them from past 3 months i have received some payments and they put my account on resolution mode (limitations) i have provided all the necessary documents and everything they requested to do so. now they say me to provide the tracking information. if i will not recived the funds how can i provide the tracking information.

i am telling this since starting and now in the end i had to refund to all my clinets and had to be in huge losses.

this company seriously mentally hasrresed me.

The incident happened on 6th march, 2016 at about 1:30 a.M.
My phone no. Is [protected].
I added my bank account to paypal account . They (Shown in the paypal site) assured that they had sent 2 small deposits (Each between ₹ 1.01 and ₹ 1.50) to indian overseas bank x-0884(My account). But when i opened my iob account i observed that the deposits are not small(One ₹ 134.60 and other ₹ 69.02).To confirm the bank account exact deposited amount has to be written in the site.This deposited amount has not been taken. My bank account is not confirmed but ₹ 203.02 has been debited from my account.
I want to return the deposited amount. I am requesting you to pay attention to this matter
( i am going to upload last few transactions of my bank account where last two are for paypal. I will upload also the assurance of paypal about deposited amount.My account no. Is [protected].)

We have opened a PayPal account and ever since its opened, we are unable to receive any payments despite complying to all their requirements. They show email verification pending which is already done. When we call their helpline it they agree that its their technical issue and have a standard reply of getting things resolved in 24-72 hours. Its been over 72 hours and yet we are waiting, and when we call up the helpline, they again tell 24-72 hours.

We are terribly disappointed with the PayPal service and its pathetic support.

Hi, I have received payment from customer last week and requested to release on next day of receipt of payment, they have mentioned that they need confirmation mail from sender and I requested and sent as well. The payment is released from Paypal account after calling twice and the customer care executive mentioned that the payment will credit to my bank account to night automatically. Now the payment is released and I don't have any balance in my Paypal account and the payment which is released is showing sent to bank clearly. Now I called my bank they have mentioned they did not have any info. Now again I called and requested the Paypal persons to let me know the status, they are mentioning on final stage (not mentioned before at all), the are telling stories that the payment will credit after 7 days of period. They are doing some fraudulent with overseas payments. Even they are charging huge money, now i don't know were is my amount. Please take necessary action and provide the information Regards, Kiran
