Pay Pal is a Piece of Crap

[hello]

It's called capitalism. They're in business to make money. It's not theft.

So you are saying a customer can't be ripped off, it's always just capitalism..?

There's no capitalism without customers. And customers can be POS's too.

That is not an answer to my question.

Here's the total conversation by CajunPopeye. He's referring to fees on exchanging currency:

I had a dispute that paypal ruled against me in spite of proof of the dispute
Amex ruled in my favor and refunded the money due me

My same issue with PP. They refused to review or accept the proof I offered, and it was impossible to reach a real human to discuss my claim. They firewalled me out completely.

I used to do many transactions on PP but they lost me as a customer forever. As if they care!

This seems to be the way. Customer service has gone offshore if not completely offworld. Unless you know and can contact actual people in the right departments, you'll get the A.I. prescription.

I don't need the stress and spending hours trying to sort things out online or on the phone can be very stressful. No thanks! I can survive without AI.

like it or not all customer service will be with a.i. to start soon in bigger companies. already you have to go thru laborious pressing buttons to get to even close to where you can address your issue. and must know tricks to get real person.

This, besides the annoying neutering, is bad security. Even if you've made it to a real person, you have to volunteer personal info to, and cooperate with, somebody you've never met. Service indeed.

Good tidings, Pay pal made it good and did the refund, however i had to repeatedly contact them and do a lot of bitching . I'm thinking it wasn't them is was the transaction with china Ali express that went bad, no communication. I've owned a lot of well made Chinese products and have dealt with some of the finest business men, but now our governments, don't agree. .So I'm guessing there will l be a lot of scams coming our way from China. UI still have business partners there, however, the tariffs are killing our trade. Hopefully we reach an agreement or we make the products here, Maybe a repeat of history, like the industrial revolution.

its take your chances dealing with third world countries or countries that dont like us much.

the tariffs are because they have them on us for similar goods or others. and we have to match it or more, or dumping too cheaply to put our companies out of business. so they can raise prices later on. or we get too much the worst of it. it hurts some but long term better deals come out of it.
