This is the bit I like that Paypal will protect you was it not for a matter of the small print
This does not sound like your ‘Fully protected’ to me if the seller has
emptied the account and Paypal won’t put their hands in their own pockets to settle a legitimate claim.
PayPal seems to suggest it can be Judge and Jury too but just because they hide this in a 20 page user agreement does not mean it will stand up in a court of law or override your rights as a consumer.
Nice to see the ‘No Warranty’ bit but at lease we got our statutory rights back if only the trading standards and office of fair trading would do there jobs.
Just a word off warning is Paypal forget to say that if for any reason such as you spent the day reading Paypals user agreement and then decided not to continue with the contract then your inbox will be inundated with emails from Paypal telling you to complete the process and it’s no use replying as you are taking to a machine.
Dont think this is a one off case or Sellers are safe
The bottom line is Paypal does not make buying safe and can create even more problems in the process and I believe PayPal is being fattened up by eBay and will be sold off but in the mean time the number of
disgruntled customers will continue to rise.
