PayPal Lets Company Pull $2500 from Accounts If User Promote ‘Misinformation’
- pilgrimfff 4y agoGood. I'm so tired of all these folks saying that we haven't always been at war with Eurasia.
- nittanymount 4y agois there a legal issue? how could this work?
- znpy 4y agoLikely illegal… However, just to be sure, my paypal account is linked to a debit card, and in the most lucky moment it could withdraw at most 70-100€. Why on earth people keep getting credit cards and giving third parties access to them is beyond my comprehension…
- josephcsible 4y agoDon't you have more protection with credit cards than with debit cards?
- rolph 4y agosuch as disputing charges that were not agreed to by the cardholder. ive seen most banks not even bat an eyelash, at allowing overdraw, so someone makes a negative on your account instead of being stopped at zero.
- znpy 4y agobut this is the crucial point: if you did agree to paypal contract you did agree to such withdrawals. The protection is void and you have to bring the case to a lawyer and go to court.
- znpy 4y agoNah. Supposedly you have them, but in the meantime the money is in somebody else’s pockets, you have to go to court and everything. Good luck with that.
- LinuxBender 4y agoAre any of PayPal's competitors such as Venmo, Stripe, Skrill, Parallel Economy, Payoneer, Google Pay, Apple Pay, Amazon Pay, Square, Shopify also doing this?
- nittanymount 4y agohaha, good question...
- josephcsible 4y agoVenmo is owned by PayPal, not a competitor to PayPal.
- LinuxBender 4y agoAh, thankyou for the correction.
- Flatcircle 4y agoCan’t be real, probably just a misread of the real policy. But if it is real, I can’t imagine a single customer that wants this?
- slackfan 4y agoWatching this get memoryholed in realtime is fucking amazing.
