Paypal just made it very hard to close your account

It was possible to close it online before. Now, users have to call and they are put on a very long hold because I assume Paypal hopes people just give up and keep the account open.
What a cluster.

That’s a lawsuit right there.
Making it ornerous to quit any service, ESPECIALLY one which can theoretically fine you $2500 for wrongthink, is just asking for a class action.

I'll never understand why a business would want to make a political stand. If I'm running a big company I'm operating like Switzerland. Democrat and Republican money is green.

Just went through this recently with a credit one credit card. I had to call and cancel it out, took awhile. Such a PITA

Glad I closed mine two years ago after my credit card rep told me that it's one of the biggest ways thieves steal credit card info. She said they are often hacked, but they do a good job of keeping it quiet to the public.
On a side note relating to this, she also told me the other big method are restaurant servers taking photos of your credit cards and selling them to thieves.
I did not know this. Guess I need to cancel venmo as well. frick paypal.

PayPal just floated a rule which would allow them to fine people $2500.
The idea is that it would be used to punish people making “false claims” which would have a negative impact on PayPal’s business IIRC.

Last week I started getting alerts that someone was trying to log into my account. Kept up for the better part of 2/3 hours despite me going in and denying/changing passwords so I just unlinked my bank account. Glad I did that after all this nonsense.

Guess i beat the rush of cancellations. I did it at 8:30 am this morning. Whew

I never used PayPal - I had serious reservations about letting a service like this access my checking account.

Can’t you jut cancel whatever credit card is linked to the account? They can frickoff at that point.

Ty. I skimmed it online and realized I didn’t care about this.
Posted on 10/10/22 at 11:04 am to weagle99
Just cancelled my account online with no issue.

t was or people participating in posting "misinformation on social media. Paypal will be the sole arbiter, and decider, of what is misinformation.
It doesn't sound like they will win any of it once it hits court. What are they going to do? Charge CNN $2500, 49 times a day?

No they didn't?
