wow... they just did it again for the same charge.

take off the 3 accounts you dont use and the other address. Funny, i always see people complain about paypal that it puts "taxes" on transfers but i havent seen any of those.

You probably got charged NSF on the bank side too... better clear that out, else you will get charged every week (well, depends on the bank and thier T&C - Terms and Conditions).

As for the charges on all your Paypal accounts, seriously man, you need to call and talk to someone. I dont know about you but money doesnt grow on trees nowadays (or any other day). DEMAND for an explanation, and dont let it go lightly until you are completely satisfied.

Edit: (For such reasons, I do the following

- I usually review my online transactions over, and over and over again,
- take screenshots of the orders in addition to
- saving the confirmation page to cutePDF.

I have been using Google Checkout and its worked out pretty well, more and more places are accepting it now which is nice.

Just like, if you have 2 check books, linked to 2 accounts. If the check book that is in your purse/pocket is for an account that has a zero balance, you don't just use it... You go out to your car and get your secondary check book and use that one.

I agree that paypal isnt perfect, but I'd say that the majority of it's CS problems come from the fact that most people that use Paypal just think of it as another online service, when in fact - it's a bank - and you MUST treat it as such.

Been using Paypal for over 7 years and have never ever had a problem. Just a matter of making sure that all cards and accounts are valid. Why do people make a mistake and then complain so much when they are inconvenienced as a result of that?

why do people like you make the mistake of opening your mouth before you read what happened. here ill give you an example of something you missed: "paypal didnt ask me which bank account/credit card to use"

about 3 people verified this..

thanks for trying to be a badass with your "i never have problems cause im perfect."
