I had an issue with paypal a couple years ago when my account for hacked and I called them and they were very helpful. Plain english and more than willing to help work out my problem and sent me a device to log on with a different code each time to help with any future hacking. Good luck Col.

More chance of seeing flying piggys than talking to a paypal rep who has sense.

Paypal are assholes to deal with, good luck to all who have had there accounts restricted!

I find them very friendly on the phone. Useless and ineffective, but friendly.

They F'ed with an old account of mine after I sold an expensive gen, they insisted I prove where I bought my watch from, where it was posted, and demanded proof of value. They locked my account until I sent them all the information they wanted. Took sometime for them to unlock it and when they did they claimed it was for my protection. Locking someones funds is not protection, F them. They claimed my buyer had previous suspious transactions. WTF does that have to do with me??

Wow.
Good thing I have never bought, sold, seen, held, or discussed a replica item.

Shit, I have a few grands in my PP account, retreat, retreat.
What if a PP employee who happens to be a fake Rolex wearer douche bag and uses this forum to find his watches started collecting some of our emails and disabling the accounts to show some activity at work? OP other than the buyer has anyone else asked for your email?

The only way for that to work is to have the same reg email for PayPal and RWI, I would think. These suspensions have to be connected in some way, I don't think it's hunting and pecking.

Can someone with access to the sql database run a query matching your usernames and your email address in a post?

I can't be arsed to try and read hundreds of threads that come back on a limited search through the forum, would be quicker and more accurate to do it via a query.

http://www.paypalsucks.com/ there's a better company to deal with then these ASSHATS! THEY FREEZE, HOLD AND F@#*K WITH OUR MONEY on purpose! I believe the banking terminology is "PLAYING THE FLOAT"! http://www.paypalwarning.com/paypal-float-concept/

Col. Could our dealers set up with the other company that operates similar to PayPal without all the B.S.? http://www.screw-paypal.com/alternatives/alternatives.html

This is nuts. There seems to be a lot of shit flying around here, wonder if there are a few bad apples making life difficult for the rest of the people here.

Good reminder not to use the same email address as your paypal for forum stuff.
