basically i made a purchase online using my paypal account, but what i didnt know was that they charged my ******* bank account before my credit card, and i get payed friday so now i am showing negative dollars in my ******* account!!!! how do i get them to reverse it?!?!?!?? why couldnt they just bill my credit card like they have before!!!!????

 

sorry, but sounds like you're fugged. E-mail their customer services.

 

i'm starting to read this a lot. You must've bought something more than $200? I was gonna sign up but changed my mind after reading you gotta sign up your bank account for large purshaces. Screw that!

 

no actually i madea pirchase for 60 bucks, thso ******* bastards dont state that they will bill you primary ******* bank account even though you made a payment with you credit card to begin with unless you go in their "help" information and read the "fine" print, and it just so happens this problem is going to be fixed at the end of october but as it stands my damn account is in negative balance!!!!!!!!!! ahhhhhhh!!! i will e-mail them is there a way to contact them by phone SO I CAN YELL AT THEM!!!!!!!!

 

Not to be a dick or anything...but you might want to consider keeping more than $60.00 in your bank account....

 

Before you blame PayPal, and before you click "Send Money" YOU HAD AN OPTION of paying with your credit or deduct the money from your bank account.

Just for protection of my hard earned money, I personally would NOT deal with anyone who is not a verified PayPal user (with bank account on their record) unless I know him/her personally.

 

I just checked again just want to make sure that if YOU were the stupid one.
And YES you were.
When you send money, under "Source of Funds", it would show where the money would be deducted from. And right below that, there is a "Funding Option" where you can choose if you want to pay with your bank money or credit card. It's that simple.

You fucked yourself, not PayPal.

 

The exact same thing happened to me. I thought that the funds would just be taken out of the paypal account. When I went back, I realized my mistake, just make sure you know where the funds are coming from when you pay people.
If you want to get a hold of them, send them an email, I've actually talked on the phone with them before but don't remember where I got the number.

 

At least you realized you mistake and didn't say PayPal fucked you.

!

 

you should be able to get paypal's # by logging in and going to customer service...

I would do it for you but I ******* HATE paypal and I closed my account...too many hassles from that service...

Do any of you understand that they have been around for like 3 years and have STILL YET TO MAKE ONE RED CENT OFF OF THIS SERVICE???

They need to just close and eat their losses...now I hear that they are trying to go public w/ an IPO....where's that link I had....I'll post it if I find it...

 

Word

 

they actaully make 3% on each trade and they hold the money in thier account. I'm sure they get interest on the money that they hold for you. Thats not bad if they have 30 million in thier holdings at 1.5%. + the 3% transaction fee. Thats how much credit cards charge and they are doing quite well.
