I just closed my paypal account (I only ever used it for the occasional purchase on Ebay) and told them exactly why I was closing my account.
I’m so glad I don’t need PayPal to supply my living income.
I seldom use it, less now than years ago.
My card has been hacked/stolen twice before via PayPal.
Not sure how secure their system is.
I only use it now as a last resort.
I never trusted it in the first place.
I ditched PayPal when, in my opinion, they tried to rip me off for several hundred dollars. They were not able to seize my money and when they threatened me I told them to FO and never used them again.
Blackrock now controls most corporate decisions.
This is written in a way that even if you just have an account, they can fine you $2,500 if a post or text message comes to their attention.
This is illegal.
I’m not quite sure WHERE one would violate Paypal’s “policy”, considering it’s not a social media platform.
Are they tied to Facebook/Twitter etc???
Is Paypal spying on it’s customers?
WHERE are they talking about “posting” objectional material?
Some? SOME?
it sounds like PayPal should be avoided. If you do anything to offend their liberal sensibilities, they can just seize your money?
PayPal is owned by Wells Fargo, no?
This should be the cause of a massive boycott.
Maybe they mean something like using pay pal when selling a tee shirt with something on it that they object to ?????
SO..... If I send money via pay-pal to promote an anti-abortion organization, or even a church that sponsors gender identity rehab, or a politician who speaks out against homosexuality, then Pay-Pal can fine me?
Did I get that right?
Was disappointed to see paypal still listed as a payment option when supporting this quarter’s freepathon last week.
Given this new policy, it seems anyone supporting this site via paypal may be putting their balance at risk.
All here are haters, after all.
You have to use your head when dealing with these people.
I’ve bought Flare guns with Pay-pal(they shut down anything that looks like a gun).
I’ve purchased all sorts of Pay-pay forbidden things and I haven’t lost a cent.
It does require an ethical person with whom you are doing business with, but crooks get noticed quickly and are usually out of business even quicker.
I haven’t been burned yet.
Just sue them in small claims court. They have no authority to seize anyone's property. Their terms of use is not a law its just their opinion.
I think Free Republic might want to reconsider using Pay Pal to collect donations.
As to illegality, most of BeijingBiden’s activities are, too. But, that no longer matters.
PayPal will re-define improper speech any time it needs a $$ influx. Convenient.
Surely no one parks $$ in a PayPal account?
On July 1, 2015, PayPal announced that it was acquiring digital money transfer company Xoom Corporation.
But they know who you are and where you live. They could report you to the FBI.
