Suing Paypal

I am taking one for the team boys

I have been limited a few times with PayPal but this one is unacceptable. I have violated AUP Previously possibly by being underage when I was under 18 but just made this one almost a year ago (when I was over 18)and was limited AGAIN. I mean who didn't see it coming? I only had $1600 in PayPal but I am sick of them taking money and making me wait 180 days with no reason why. I contacted them about how I can get this information and they told me I have to file a subpoena which means I have to take them up in small claims court.

My main goals for this project are to see why they limited me with legal attorneys and to try to recoup my $1600 from PayPal. If I am able to get monetary compensation then that is a bonus. But this will make sure that that they don't try to run away with my money since it will be attached to a legal proceeding

Day 1:

Sent my demand for payment to PayPal which I know they will refuse so then I can start my small claims court lawsuit.


Also if anyone wants to do their claim, you have to live in US as it would make it much simpler since I don't know international laws on lawsuits and subpoenas. just fill out a letter as I did and mail it to them at the address in the header. Then include as much information about your dispute and the monetary amount you would like to claim back. In most/all states there is a small claims court limit which GayPal makes you sue in small claims court. You can find that here https://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/small-claims-suits-how-much-30031.html
You will just have to do this so you can then file a small claims court lawsuit and subpoena them for the exact information of WHY you were limited.

Info in Demand Letter (DISCLAIMER: I AM NOT A LAWYER AND I DO NOT RECOMMEND YOU REFERENCE THIS POST FOR LEGAL ADVICE)

A. Description of Dispute [info here]

B. Request for Relief (if blank, TBD)

C. Requested Monetary Relief (if blank, TBD) -
Relief Payment Request: $1654.99 -
Requested Debt Relief: $0.00

D. Next Steps
If this dispute has not been resolved within your contractual pre-arbitration notice period, if any, I may automatically file a Demand For Arbitration with the American Arbitration Association or JAMS (as applicable)

Thanks for starting the thread and good luck! I'm curious to see how this plays out.

Good luck man!

Finally, someone is doing something against gaypal. Good luck with this!

You sure they haven't states in the ToS that if you violated the terms once, you can't create a new account, if you do they'll limit that too, even if the new one doesn't break ToS.

Anyhow; best of fucking luck. 1600$ is nothing to them, but it's still a defeat if you win it in court.

Love you, bro! @blackwalker - Hope it all works out.

if gaypay will be sued , i will give 3 days free food to poor peoples

Well, that part was weird because then I asked them if I could create another account just to try to play dumb and yolo'd it. Then they told me that this AUP violation was just for this account and I could as long as I don't do the same behavior again.... The same behavior which I don't know what I did lmao

Good luck bro!
but remember this is PayPal they will show some small letters text on their TOS, that you checked 'Agree' when you opened the account, there it will say that they have the right to freeze your funds for 180 days without no reason...

You just said you were under 18 when you made the account, that's a violation. But if you have proof of them saying that, you will win in court without a doubt in my mind.

I don't get all the Paypal bitching.. Whats the problem? Just don't break their tos. Send ID documentation if you get limited and they will remove the limit in a few days.. Been using Paypal for 10 years and never had any issues. Been limited 2 times, sent ID first time and it was fine. Second time I had to send proof of address.

Success to you is all I can say

I will enjoy the day you get limited for something you don't know what you did and they wont tell you unless you file a subpeona. Not my words, theirs

My main reason is to find out via subpoena WHY they limited me. If I get monetary compensation, that is a plus.

Wish you all the best!

Keep us updated

10 years its been fine. For the past 3 years, I have had transactions for over $500k. I don't see any reason why they would ban me. If they limit me again, why wouldn't I be able to just send in the requested documents again?
Everyone having Paypal issues have one thing I common, they have previously been banned for breaking tos.

Good luck
