ahh gotta transfer money to bank account

butter_sashimi 07-26-2011 11:53 PM

Correct me if I'm wrong-- They are trying to get people to close their accounts. It didnt say a hack was planned in Anon's actual statement.

Haha Paypal has removed the answer to "How to close my Paypal account?"

It's safe to say that thousands of people will have closed their accounts by tomorrow morning.

FishTaco 07-26-2011 11:54 PM

i have US funds in my account and right now is the highest the CDN$ has been in a long time. Stupid exchange rate. FML.

Taking screen shot in case my account changes and Paypal can give me my money back.

illicitstylz 07-26-2011 11:56 PM

lol already dried up my paypal balance and my bank account last week... fucking miata, but yeah it feels like just another chain mail style warning

duy- 07-27-2011 12:08 AM

just reopened my account today, gotta buy something from the states. im sure my credit card company will understand that i didnt mean to send x amount of money to some charity company. they do cover you in case your credit card gets stolen so i dont see the need to close my accounts, stock on on toilet paper and wait for fireballs to destroy the world?

Ronin 07-27-2011 12:10 AM

I'm going to keep my open just so I can join the class action lawsuit when these guys get caught.

We're not in much danger. It's like robbing a bank. Our money isn't in danger...only the bank's.

#opPAYPAL is a protest of people closing their accounts not an attack! Repeat NOT ASN ATTACK! stop saying that

- apparently its only a boycott of paypal, no where in their message to paypal do they consider an attack. - due to paypal freezing wikileak's account

"We encourage anyone using PayPal to immediately close their accounts and consider an alternative. The first step to being truly free is not putting one's trust into a company that freezes accounts when it feels like, or when it is pressured by the U.S. government. PayPal's willingness to fold to legislation should be proof enough that they don't deserve the customers they get. They do not deserve your business, and they do not deserve your respect."

Limitless 07-27-2011 12:15 AM

I believe Paypal keeps your credit card and bank information in their database even after you delete them

LsquareD 07-27-2011 12:16 AM

CC removed just in case...

The pending transaction is a glitch in their system. Happened to me twice. You have to contact them for manual removal.

I'm laughing at all the people who panicked and closed there accounts.

Mr.HappySilp 07-27-2011 12:37 AM

Haven't used paypal in ages. I had an issue with them I think about a year ago where I sell my WoW acct on paypal, buyer even select the no refund options so I got the money in paypal transfer it to my bank account and then give the info to the buyer.

Buyer then issue an chrage back claiming the Paypal acct was hack lol. Good thing my bank call me about this when Paypal try to take money out of my acct. So I cancel that bank acct and open a new one.

The people at paypal threaten to report this to my credit report. I simply hung up on them. Never dealing with those clowns again.

Tons of online store now expect your credit card info without paypal anyways so that's where I shop now.

ghosty 07-27-2011 12:39 AM

done and done :megusta:

StaxBundlez 07-27-2011 12:54 AM

taken with a grain of salt...

SkinnyPupp 07-27-2011 01:18 AM

LOL @ the people who are actually closing their accounts :fuckthatshit:

Might as well right? Since the world is ending next year anyway :lol
