I believe that's in the ToS. At least in the US, they have a quite restrictive binding arbitration agreement.

- tyingq 5y agoInteresting. I wonder if a small claims court (assuming the balance wasn't too large) would help. Edit: found the text in the TOS: "Holds based on PayPal's risk decisions We may place a hold on payments sent to your PayPal account if, in our sole discretion, we believe that there may be a high level of risk associated with you, your PayPal account, or your transactions or that placing such a hold is necessary to comply with state or federal regulatory requirements... Risk-based holds generally remain in place for up to 21 days from the date the payment was received into your PayPal account. We may release the hold earlier under certain circumstances ..., but any earlier release is at our sole discretion. The hold may last longer than 21 days if the payment is challenged as a payment that should be invalidated and reversed based on a disputed transaction as discussed in the following paragraph below. In this case, we'll hold the payment in your PayPal account until the matter is resolved (but no longer than 180 days)." https://www.paypal.com/us/webapps/mpp/ua/useragreement-full https://www.paypal.com/us/webapps/mpp/ua/useragreement-full
- staticautomatic 5y agoYes it could help. A breach of contract claim would force them to provide evidence that the amount withheld is disputed actually disputed.
