PAYPAL is NOT a bank, will take your money and freeze your account; they do things like a bank, rip you off, they should be regulated by the government, consumer ripoff Internet

Just to add to the numerous complaints about paypal : Here is mine....

I started selling on ebay about 2 months ago , I sold cell phones and got 10 positive feedback on ebay (go ahead and look (Aphoneforyou ebay id), Paypal called to ask where I got my phones from, 2 days later they limted my account asking for more verification info, i sent all info in ie. utility bill showing residence, cc statement, crives lic. etc.

To date my acccount is still locked with over 300.00 in it, NOT ONE BUYER HAD COMPLAINED TO EBAY OR PAYPAL ABOUT NOT REC any item or any other negative comment.

I believe paypal will lock anyones account to gain interest on that accounts money or just to steal that persons fund.

Keep in mind you ahve JUST as much consumer protection when buying off ebay if you go to your bank and purchase a money order etc with YOUR CREDIT CARD, as it is your credit cards policy that defines your protections. If you do not rec your goods or feel ripped off simply notify the credit card comapny and they will investigate. AVOID PAYPAL AT ALL COST!!
