"sorry but i do have to disagree with you- i've been using my paypal account for almost 10 years---and have found it to be the safest way to conduct alot of business transactions- and i have dealt with customer service a couple times- they are very knowledgable and fix things right away"
Well, you are free to disagree with me, but I am just telling you about my experience. They stole almost a $1000 dollars from me and paypal was going to have my money tied up for months and treated me as if I was the thief. I called them many times and always with the same unhelpful results. They even denied that my not receiving email confirmations on the fraudulent transactions was possible. They claim it was my email settings or that it went to my spam folder. Neither was the problem and I received all the legitimate emails about my transactions from them immediately so somehow the thief was able to bypass the notifications. The only thing they did is remove the fraudulent names and addresses but even that took a couple of weeks. Thank goodness, for my bank. They did everything that paypal wouldn't and didn't treat me like I was the one at fault. If you have had good results from them, that is great. But I have heard many stories similar to mine. I hope you continue to have good results from them and never have to deal with what I did.
