I hate paypal with my heart. I run online websites and use paypal for people to send me funds when they buy mobiles.
I've recently been selling iPhones. People pay me, I send it over to my friend in the US, he buys the iPhones and sends them over.
Now they've gone and froze his account saying he's under investigation and I don't know what to do! I tried calling, nobody is 'at liberty to discuss the matter'. I emailed, no reply.
They're messing up my reputation and my poor friend has his money frozen.
What can I do??

now the guy who I send money to is saying that if this isn't resolved, he's keeping the iPhones. What the hell is this?! Why is everyone a backstabber!

I presume that your friend has your money frozen in his account. Have you considered Google checkout?

Im afraid theres nothing you can do really mate, your friend must provide all information about the money to paypal (ridiculous i know!) i bet there suspecting money laundering...

yes I've already moved to Google Checkout.
I hate damn paypal. First they take around 12 pounds per transaction, THEN they lock the money.
Spent 80 pounds on hold with them! (I'm on Doha now so calling international)

As i intimated elsewhere Amnesia, i once had the proceeds of a very expensive digital SLR put on hold by PP once, i had to wait 6 months to get my cash, like all "merchant" accounts, they play by their own rules, which they make up as they go along.

it's just not fair.
After calling them to help my friend, they said 'don't worry'
A few hours later they blocked MY account!
They're acting like thugs!
