I having an ongoing situation with paypal, they decided to hold $500 that belong to me for 2 weeks already!. They don't give me a reasonable answer and everytime I contact them they keep writing nonsense. I need to complain about them. Where can I do this? To the BBB? Where? Thank you. Please, be careful when you use Paypal. They are thieves.

Here's some information on a few of the reasons paypal freezes accounts..
Why PayPal freezes (aka limits, aka restricts) user accounts and how to get it unfrozen (aka unlimited, aka unrestricted).
Knowing why PayPal froze your account has a lot to do with how to get it unfrozen.
Based on others stories and experiences, here are some possible reasons:
you have more than one PayPal account, or PayPal thinks you have more than one PayPal account.
you clicked on a link in an email that you thought was from PayPal, but it really was a phishing expedition.
you moved into a house or apartment that used to be occupied by a con artist who used PayPal to steal.
you got a new phone number, one used by a con artist who used PayPal to steal.
you use an ISP that assigned you an IP that was used by a con artist who used PayPal to steal.
you paid someone, like a con artist who used PayPal to steal.
someone paid you, like a con artist who used PayPal to steal.
your name and/or address is similar to a con artist who used PayPal to steal.
you sold something to someone who questioned it's authenticity.
you bought something from someone who had someone else question the integrity of something they sold to you.
you registered a bank account or credit card that someone else used one time.
you accessed PayPal at a friends house one time, and that friends account was frozen.
your friend used your computer to access their PayPal account, which was later frozen.
you sold an item that is a common item often sold by con artists who used PayPal to steal

you sent more than $2000 to someone. (See Former PayPal Employee #2)

you sent money to someone in foreign country that PayPal considers "evil."
you received money from someone in a foreign country that PayPal considers "evil."
you used your PayPal ATM card in a foreign country that PayPal considers "evil."
your account was "corrupted" by a criminal posing as a PayPal employee. (See Former PayPal employee #1 and WhistleBlower #1.)
and other reasons that only the dark wizard of PayPal knows about. Welcome to the world of PayPal customer service.
Sorry about your trouble but I have no idea who to complain to. I closed my account because of emails I kept getting that said I had purchased something (which were spam from people who wanted my information). Paypal is not to be trusted.
what? you sold something that wasnt as advertised, or buyer changed their
mind? ivestagations take time, that same 500$ is being withheld to the one who complained.
Ummm that email isnt nonsense, its pretty clear to me. Obviously, someone filed against you. If the situtation was reversed and you bought something that wasnt not as described, would you want a super speedy judgement in favor of the seller? No. So just wait and work with them.
Thank you to Jackrider, Thank you Thank you for that link.
I have the same problem. Use paypal at your own risk, they are not a public company, so they can keep doing their old tricks until somone takes action.

Top 3 PayPal Questions
Can PayPal hold my money with no explanation? The answer is YES.
Can PayPal freeze my account for no reason? The answer is YES.
Can PayPal take money out of my account without my knowledge?
The answer is YES.
Yes, by all means go to the BBB. They actually take Paypal Inc. complaints. They are very fast, do it on the internet and file the complaint. Take the rest of your money out right away before filing the complaint, because they'll seek revenge. They are one of the meanest companies, together with Bally fitness..
Forget about the BBB. If PayPal is a member of its local BBB, it will be in good standing as long as it pays its membership fees.
I have never seen a case in which a report to the BBB helped to resolve an issue for a consumer.
I have never checked a BBB rating for a member and don't know anyone else who has. The BBB is an out-of-date institution.
