Amen. Your quick sale is their possible chargeback. And if you wipe your bank account and close it, they are stuck making YOUR refund. The term is CYA, and they do a fair job of it. Personally, I'd like to have what they refund for others in a year.

nice post
my paypal account was restricted for 8 weeks, i could take payments but i could not withdraw, spend or close account down, the reason was i recieved a certain amount of payments so they asked me to forward proof of 5 confirmed deliveries , out of all the ones they picked they decided to ask for 3 in the UK and 2 in Australia. 2 of the uk were sent recorded so i thought there was no problem there, but i was so wrong. when we checked the numbers they were showing not trackable until delivered and this was weeks down the line, but the customer had recieved them the follwing day we sent ?.
the 2 in Australia again it showed that the item was in the hands of the australian post but this was not enough to confirm delivery.after over 20 calls 5 faxes they would not budge.Paypal held me ransom until i refunded 2 of the customers . then i had to wait 48 hours to see if everything was ok. well i hit another problem, a customer complained he did not recieve the goods which was a low value item 1.00 ,and we sent standard first class post, so again paypal refused to do anything until i refunded that one because i could not send any proof of delivery. then another 72 hours and last weekend we got our restriction removed,IMO paypal is a good thing for business but i personally hate it becasue you have no control, not like a bank were you can walk in and confront them, with paypal your on a long line waiting and waiting and waiting.so whatever you have right now in your paypal account ,draw it out dont leave it in there.
also one other thing to be carefull about , i know it should not hapen but it possible does,if you were to take a payment for an expensive item and let the customer collect it, you now have no proof of delivery and if this customer was to claim there payment back, then paypal would refund it.

Can you expedite a bit, so that I may help you, have been dealing with Paypal diputes for a long time, but luckily all settled(still have some issues) so have a lot of experience in this field, lol,

Just got my account suspended recently due to some suspicious high value transactions but they removed the suspension just today within 24 hours of me providing them the info they were waiting for.

Its a real pain no doubt but I have to say that I am impressed with their speed once they have got what they need

Any good and reliable well known Papal alternatives for UK users?

I have had a problem with Paypal, I purchased a couple of items off ebid, the seller offered insurance for the items, there address was verified, there Paypal account was verified, I had a feeling something was wrong when I got the item tracking number and when I checked in was wrong, I emailed the seller incase she had typed the number incorrectly, the seller answered after two days saying that was the number on the ticket, when the item did not sow up after a week (was suppose to be delivered within 2-5 days, I contacted paypal for advice, they stated that I had to wait longer for the delivery, I contacted the seller who egnored all emails, so after the items did not arrive after two weeks, I opened a dispute with the seller, after a couple of more weeks Paypall ruled in my favour, but then I was told that there was no money in her account to refund me, but paypal would do whatever it could to retreive the funds privately and because another department was dealing with the account they could not communicate with me regarding the matter, it has been 3 years now, Not one message has ever been sent to me regarding this matter, I cant ask paypal as they will not answer or tell me that they cant decuss because of customer privacy laws.
