Sysadmin Field Notes

Man I hate paypal

December 23, 2007

I'm mystified as to how anyone is able to use them to do anything. A few months ago, they closed my account because of inactivity. Actually, they didn't close it, they just deactivated it. They would let me open a new account with my info until I went through a painful 4-5 step process to close my old account. My favorite step of which was "We're sorry to see you go, what is your reason for quitting?".

So I did that and create a new account. But now I can't use my credit cart because "that number is already assigned to another paypal account." Right, the one you forced me to close.

Sigh.
