PayPal once again is making it difficult for me to run my business. PayPal is withholding ( for 21 days ) any money above $38000.00 USD in sales. Why? I get penalized for doing well this month, and they hold my money so I can't pay suppliers, etc..

I don't know the exact dates but the first action was the collection agency calling me trying to demand a payment and I let them know it was the fraud they sent it back to PayPal I have no idea what's going on because I haven't heard from PayPal

Last year a friend of mine sent me money via PayPal and when I went to get what she sent PayPal would only return to me what was used via credit cards I had used, they refused to give me all of my money that was returned from my friend, and it was money that should have been deposited into my bank account. Some monies were returned like I said to my credit cards but the rest my friend sent that should have deposited into my checking account and when I asked PayPal where it was and why wasn't it deposited they said they did deposit it and I checked with my bank multiple times, I actually spoke with individuals in person on the phone from my bank and they all said the same thing that no deposits had come from PayPal.

Deceptive Practices and Forced Currency Conversion on Initial Automatic Payments I am filing this complaint against PayPal for engaging in deceptive financial practices, hiding critical transaction options, and forcing non-consensual currency conversion markup fees on consumers. Recently, I authorized a recurring automatic payment agreement via PayPal using my linked international credit card ( Visa/Mastercard ). PayPal intentionally hid the currency conversion toggle during the initial checkout and subscription signup flow. As a result, my very first transaction was automatically processed using PayPals internal, heavily marked-up exchange rate without my explicit, informed consent. When I contacted PayPal Customer Support, they acknowledged that this " locked '' currency conversion on automatic payments is a " well-documented friction point '' where PayPal defaults to its own exchange rate markup. They admitted that the system hides the toggle during signup, forcing users to manually go deep into account settings to change it retroactively for " future transactions. '' However, PayPal explicitly refuses to correct or refund the currency conversion fee for the first transaction, stating that " once the transaction is completed, we will not have any option to make any changes, '' and claiming the process is " correct as per the User Agreement. '' This is a predatory and anti-consumer product design. PayPal is leveraging its interface to intentionally default consumers into a worse financial rate to profit from the conversion spread, while offering no option to avoid it on the first payment. Telling a consumer they can fix a setting after they have already been wrongfully charged does not change the fact that the initial charge was unauthorized in its method of conversion. I request that the CFPB investigate PayPal 's deceptive billing practices and require PayPal to : Refund the excess currency conversion spread/markup stolen from my initial transaction. Fix their user interface to provide a mandatory, transparent currency conversion choice ( PayPal rate vs. Card Issuer rate ) at the exact moment a user signs up for any automatic payment or billing agreement, rather than hiding it to force a retroactive fix.

I haven't tried fixing it because it says that it permanently limited my account and can't appeal it or anything and I depend it on PayPal to get paid and manage my money and I have money on the way to my PayPal account which I probably won't get now and I depended on PayPal so I can pay my rent and other bills they didn't give me any warning.... I uploaded my driver 's license to verify my account & was blocked instantly

My PayPal account got permanently banned after I submitted my drivers license and theyre holding my money. I did nothing wrong. My boyfriend sent me money for rent and they blocked my account after I did verification. I did legally change my name recently and I dont know if that triggered it but they refuse to help.
