Don't people realize that PayPal will get their money back...through us by raising fees or something.

CoolGuy · Jul 28, 2004

Obviously but once money is going to given to people they go blind of everything else.

Where does one stand if, in response to a Buyer Complaint, Paypal replies that the item purchased is not "tangible" and closed the case, hence causing a monetary loss? What changes if a credit card chargeback was ultimately made and the financial loss reversed through the bank?

I filed my claim awhile ago should be getting monies soon.

jaydons · Jul 29, 2004

I understand fees will probably be raised, but they will be raised regardless if I get a payment for claim, why not receive the claim money to compensate for the raised fees.

Webtwink · Jul 31, 2004

Wilfredo · Aug 1, 2004

What is this shit about ?

Raf · Aug 1, 2004

Wow, this should be some pretty interesting news.

Wilfredo · Aug 1, 2004

Will the money be paid to youre paupal account ? ;D

Haha, people dont bite the hand that feeds you.

Raf · Aug 1, 2004

Yeah thats what Im wondering, but they will most likely recieve a cheque if they win the case.

csmaster2005 · Aug 1, 2004

it says on the site that the money will be deposited into your paypal account unless you specified for a check in which they will take a $1 deduction.

Anyone know how much we'd get?
Also, what's benefit of filing long sheet vs short sheet?

RareIQ · Aug 2, 2004

Long sheet is if you have had problems with them I believe, otherwise its just around $ 50 for the short form.
