pay pal

[BosnMate]

Is there a way to talk to a human on the phone at Pay Pal? If so, would you please let me know how. My bank says they are transferring money to Pay Pal, that I didn't authorize, and my account at Pay Pal only he $15 in it, but that's also gone.

BosnMate,

I just went to the paypal site and here's what you do.....sign in and along the top of the page you'll see a help button....click on that and then you'll see a 800 phone number with a code which will allow them to confirm it's you when you call.

Good luck but believe the hours are standard office hours only.

Regards + HH

Bill

Try 866-571-3012 if not it, maybe they can give you the number. Oh yeah, read the above post first

Yes, find the help button (mine was at the bottom of the page) and it will give you the phone number with a one time passcode.

Paypal service hours:
4:00 AM to 10:00 PM Pacific Time Monday through Friday
6:00 AM to 8:00 PM Pacific Time Saturday and Sunday

I have called Paypal several times, and was always helped right away. And with no strong accents that I can remember.

I used to use Paypal all the time, until they wanted my bank account info.

I had a Ebay transaction fail because Paypal wouldn't pay so I called them.

"We need your bank account number, so we can make a small deposit, you tell us how much, and this way we can confirm that you are you."

Really ?? They go on saying once you reach $2,000 dollars in transactions, you must be confirmed.

BS I say, I ask her for my total.......over 2,000 transactions, in 10 years, for a total over $10,000.

A bit late with this?, I ask. New policy she says.

BS. I pay my bill every month, what's the problem? New Policy, Sir.

Let me talk to your Supervisor. No, he will tell you the same thing.

I figure this is some kind of scam, I wait a few days, make sure I have the real Paypal phone no., call back an get the same BS story.

Options : Make a new account, and you are good till you hit $2,000.

Make a special bank account, just for Paypal

I said screw it, quit them and shop on Amazon now.

"We need your bank account number, so we can make a small deposit, you tell us how much, and this way we can confirm that you are you."

When I added a new bank I had to do that. no big deal with for me. They deposited 7 cents (I think) and then I had to tell them the amount. That way they know the correct account is hooked up.

I used to have a "real" credit card business account, with a creditcard swipe machine. every month they would come up with new "hidden fees" that i had to pay. Then paypal came around and i tried them. that machine went into the trash and I cancelled that service. no extra fees a flat percent of the total + 30¢ deducted at time of sale. I couldn't be happier. and it take a lot to make me happy ;(
