Paypal Fraudulent fee charged by Paypal Nationwide

On Dec. 13, I received over $1,600 via Paypal -- payment was late and I had agreed to have it paid via Paypal rather than sent by check. Upon accepting it on the Paypal website, I was informed that I would be charged 4.9% plus $0.30, unless I changed my account to Premier --and then the charge would only be 2.9%, plus $0.30. I naturally changed my account... to find that I was charged $80.34 for that transaction! -- I attempted to reach Paypal (there was no phone number I could see anywhere), I sent them 2 emails which, so far, have remained unanswered.

Not only is this fraudulent, since Paypal doesn't hold true to what they present, but $80.34 for ONE TRANSACTION is tantamount to usury! I intend to file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau, and to terminate my account with them.
