There was a time I was excited to get a PayPal account owing to all the (perceived) hype around it.
I made one and linked my card but rarely used it. Once I had to pay to an online merchant and for some reason the card didn't work so I hooked up my savings account. Months go by and since I never came around to using the service again, I wanted the account closed.
But before that, as a personal preference, I wanted to manually remove the card and account link. The card worked fine but it won't let me do it with the bank account. Took 3 separate chats over a week to get it done and I finally closed it to never look back. I have no idea of the dark patterns exist anymore.
Now I just use cashapp to send and receive money with my friends. Left such a salty taste in my mouth, I'll never give PayPal any business anymore, just seems sketch.
