PayPal Holdings, Inc. Credit Card Complaint

Closing/Cancelling account

PayPal Holdings, Inc. Credit card department,

Closing/Cancelling account Oregon

Paypal continued to harass me about opening a credit account, so finally I applied and opened an account in - 2015. Less than 2 months later I received a notice that my account was closed because Paypal had not updated my new address. I received the notice at my new address. I contacted them and was informed that they would reinstate my account but that I was forced to allow them to run a " soft credit '' report in order for them afterwards to reinstate my account, so I hesitated, but then agreed. We had an agreement. I also filed a seller complaint against a merchant who misrepresented an ad where I received merchandise not resembling the ad 's description. I faxed all relevant documentation to Paypal timely. Instead, the letter I received from them in - stated that my account was closed and the dispute was closed ; the letter was also very vague. I immediately contacted Paypal and that is when I was forced to submit to a soft credit check then my account would be opened. They never re-opened it and the dispute was never properly followed up on. I have made several calls since then


to - - ''? When I was speaking with her, the line went silent for a long while ; I thought maybe we were disconnected, but she was just playing hoodratty games and giggling at my dismay and disappointment with the illegal treatment. I terminated the call with her at this point. Called back later, spoke to - who then transferred me to - where all he did was say " I 'm sorry you were told that, or that, or that this happened to you '', but he refused to correct the matter and gave me the very same fax and dept. to contact about disputes and customer care that I had previously been dealing with. I informed him that Paypal behaves like a bunch of monkeys in a circus, aping one another while upsetting and treating customers with such illegal and dishonest behavior. I finally had to hand up on him also. He, nor anyone at Paypal would rectify the situation. They hire anyone without any problem resolution skills and then one is referred back to the very same dept. that presented the confusion and illegal conduct in the first place! I even reminded - of the settlement and lawsuit last year by the CFPB and he did n't seem to care. Paypal need be cleaned out and intelligent, mindful and law abiding reps and supervisors need replace the dumbed down and unlawful scraps they currently employ. They need to reinstate my account and refund my disputed amount ASAP or else. Thanks.
