So. A month ago a guy filed a claim on a wii saying he didn't get it. After a month I won the claim.

Anyhow, I go into to my paypal account to withdraw the money. And their system is screwed! When you go to withdraw money it tells you your email address needs to be confirmed. Hmmm ok.

I go into the profile check an email address and click confirm. "This address is already confirmed." Hmm ok.

I call paypal up. "This is a known issue, we updated our system and this problem emerged. We hope to have it fixed by the end of the week." End of the week!!!! What? How stupid are these people!

They still havent fixed the year old prolem where I can't remove a bank account or credit card because "an authorization is still pending" even though there is nothing happening in my account.

Ridiculous.

They just screwed up with a Buy.com order I placed yesterday.
I did the checkout at Buy.com, then was redirected to Paypal, where I paid. Paypal shows that the payment is completed, and I do not have those funds anymore.

Buy.com says that I never paid, my order's been cancelled, and that I will not be charged.

My Paypal account says differently. Hopefully Buy.com answers their customer support e-mails.

Thats crazy Jeff. Paypal is truly a crappy service.

Just a note if any of you have the withdrawl problem. You can get around it by doing this:

1. Add a new email address
2. Confirm it.
3. Make Primary (I dont know if this is necessary)
4. Withdraw money should be working now

I also heard you can't make payments right now either. This should fix that too.
