Hey everyone, I used my college e-mail to sign up for PayPal. I haven't been in college for over 3 years at this point. It was a non-issue because I generally don't receive cash, just send money. Well, I received cash from someone the other day and when I went to go transfer it it had to send a confirmation email to my account. And my e-mail no longer exists in the colleges system. They are trying to do a temporary recovery but is there anything I can do to retrieve that money if not? TIA submitted by /u/Lazy-Construction-67 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

To receive international payments do I need to have business account or is a personal account enough? submitted by /u/Not-me_lol [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

I was in quick back to back messages with this guy and finally sent him the invoices, but nothing. I see he has read the message so I waited 4 hours, then asked him if he’d received the invoices and he said yes. That’s it. I sent the invoices about 14hrs ago and he confirmed he got them about 10ths ago and still no payment. How long do you wait before you realize they’ve wasted your time? I have others inquiring about some of the items. So I guess also losing potential customers as well if this doesn’t work out. Update: thanks for the advice, I told them they have 8hrs left (which would be th ..read more

I have a Ko-fi page for my writing, and just as it starts doing well, PayPal decides to hold my money for my fucking work. I'm goddam homeless.

I had a friend pay me back over paypal and in the confirmation message on their end it said "You sent $10.00 USD to *my entire personal email". I don't like that it shares that with people who pay me, is there a way to remove that? submitted by /u/JbluGaming [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Firstly yes I have contacted PayPal several times and yes I have screenshots of everything (it won’t let me attach them). So I bought a train ticket from Southeastern using PayPal on the 15th of April, it was a travel card, so the ticket was £32.65. The money got taken out of my bank account and I got a notification on PayPal that the transaction was complete fast forward to the 18th when I checked my email and I got a notification that PayPal had tried to take funds out of my account funds of £32.65. So I contacted PayPal and I got a refund on that as they had taken it out of my account. The ..read more

I’m looking to make a purchase of some relatively rare disc golf discs from a guy on Facebook. I’ve been talking to the guy for a few days trying to come to terms on price and shipping and all that good stuff. This will be the priciest purchase I’ve made and the guy I’m buying off of is an individual not a business. I would like some assurance if the guy doesn’t ship everything. How does making a claim work? How long does it take to get my money back? Will the seller have access to the money as soon as he’s paid (I would like to dodge the uncomfortable situation of him not having access to mo ..read more

Before replying, please keep in mind the owner of the Paypal account is deceased. We would like it removed just so personal information isn't saved on Paypal nor the email associated to it. I need help taking down a Paypal account that has been banned for policy violations since 2021. submitted by /u/searchingforthiss [visit reddit] [comments ..read more
