PayPal Holdings, Inc. Credit Card Complaint

Unsolicited issuance of credit card

Unsolicited issuance of credit card New Mexico

Hi! PayPal Credit is engaging in misleading and predatory practices. In paying for an ebay purchase, I inadvertently and somehow signed up for PayPal Credit on a " Promotional Financing '' offer. Rather than using my checking acct. via debit card, which is what I had checked, PayPal used credit on the first " sign up '', and on several subsequent occasions, despite me checking " PayPal '', not " PayPal Credit ''. PayPal checks, then unchecks my choice of payment, and puts the purchase on credit. I have emailed PayPal with my complaint, and received no response. PayPal 's " Promotional Financing Offer '' is no payment/interest free for 6 mos., then they start charging 19.99 % from date of posting, a few days after purchase, if you do n't pay off the entire balance. This reminds me of the medical " - - '' scam, but at lease medical expenses can be paid. No consumer needs a sneaky credit scam to buy stuff on ebay! Please investigate - this is just wrong. Thank you.
