I want to close my paypal account but can’t.
I have an account with PayPal for about a year and after disappointment with their service tried to close it down.
Turns out that they do not allow that without submitting a person to bullying and intimidation in order to obtain personal and private information!
I had similar argument with them last year when under stupid pretext they locked my account until I provided them copies of several personal documents proving who I am , my confirmed address , passport etc .
Those rotten mongrels tried it again . Under pretext that ” someone ” tried to access my account they are demanding even more personal information including copies of bank and credit card statements .
Such documents give them information who I am working for , how much I earn and how I spend my money – clearly personal information which has nothing to do with ” proving identity ” or similar rubbish they are fond of using as the excuse .
I contacted them in last 3 months several times . Firstly nicely , then less nicely as their responses inspire to search the dictionary for the most vile expressions to describe their conduct and attitude .
Search of postings on internet indicates that I am not alone with my experience . They are terrorist and spying organisation using bullying and intimidation as the primary method of operation .
The Australian public deserves better service that from this American shit and I am hoping that my complaint will help to affirm that they are antisocial organisation and it will be declared as such

Close your bank account that you have linked to paypal and report any credit/debit card as lost that you had linked to your paypal account. This way you don’t even have to worry about closing your account because paypal will not have access to any of your financial information at that point.
apypal sucks is an understatement. Closed my acc a few months ago or so i thought…now get emails re disputed transactions….how I ask myself. tried to get through to piss poor but couldn’t..email or phone. Only thing to do is change cards but would dearly love to be able to actually complain. Will write to my MP….if enough do it?
