Paypal is horrible. I lost over $4500 on paypal. They found in my favor but they said we are sorry we could not recover the funds for this transaction. I am trying to work with the FBI to see what i can do about it.
Paypal is no friend to online buyers.
In fact, the company's terms of service even states "(PayPal) does not ensure the quality, safety, or legality of the merchandise received, nor that the seller will even ship the merchandise."
Paypal does not care about the customer or the business. They only care about themselves
Paypal will shut you down at a moments notice for transfering to much money at one time to your bank, If the person you delt with was risky they assume you are too, if the person you did business with scammed someone or did something to someone they will assume you are part of it. and a million other reasons.
Paypal is a ,marketplace for scammers. People know how to get around the system. They will let you buy something and then they send you a package with tracking and signature delievery. You sign for it and find out its not at all what you thought it was but your stuck now because they have a tracking # to prove to paypal they sent it.
I have had the same issues with merchant accounts. NEVER use pipeline data or credit card service interntaional. GO e merchant was another one thats bad. best payment service.
WE use to sell computers. and i tried several different places for merchant accounts. Well we sold mac computers with high end software. So they tended to be more expensive then your $400 knock off at wal mart. I would do good for awhile and boom they shut me down because they said i was out of my normal selling range and my first few transactions were high.
I told them i was selling computers and if they wanted to verify who i sold to call the owner of the CC. They did and still told me i had to ship all product before being paid. I cant do that it was over $15000 in merchandise and i did not have that much money.
Merchant companies are a little less strict if you are retail but when you are internet they are crazy tight. They even told me once that when i signed up i stated my average transaction and my highest and then my monthly average. If at any time i went over that they would have to freeze funds and verify things.
I gave up and started using google but they will do the same thing if you get to many transactions in a short time period unless you have an established history with them and even then they still can.
There has to be a way to take credit cards without so much hassle
