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.

    Yeah, sounds like its the same. Do debit cards also have a pin (so you can’t get money put of people once you have stolen it or they put it in your terminal once?)

      Not sure what you mean exactly but yes debit cards usually have a PIN. You have to use it anytime you interact with an ATM or you insert the card into the POS. The only time PIN isnt needed is when the POS has The option for contactless payment. Then it is witout PIN until I think 50€. But at least my bank you can block the card from the banking app if you get the card stolen.
