About 3 or 4 years ago PayPal added the option to buy cryptocurrency, which I thought I’d try. (Dumb idea 🙄)
Part of the sign up process was glitched. I retried and clicked submit one too many times, I guess. Now I’ve been unable to use PayPal for years. They blocked me because THEIR SITE was broken, but the web page essentially accuses me of being a criminal and asks for my bank records. No way in hell.
This was just for me to pay others. I can only imagine how awful PayPal is if you are a vendor.
Fuck PayPal.
I wonder if you could sign up again with a different email. Seems like they would immediately know you’re the same person. But, it is glitchy AF. So maybe it will glitch in your favor
I thought about that, but they ask for enough info that they’d be able to identify me. And then they’d probably ban me. At least right now I have the option of restoring my account, even though I have no intention of doing so.
Woops, I should have considered that. I certainly don’t blame you for not wanting to play their little game of sending them all that bullshit. There’s Venmo and other options anyway.
That’s usually how I pay if someone requests money. Venmo is owned by PayPal but my account there works just fine.
