Paypal sometimes has some weird glitches ./QUOTE]
I'll say, About five years ago, I tried PayPal... well in the sense that I bought a $7.95 item I needed from someone who only had Paypal as a pay option. Paypal deducted $985 from my Checking Account. For two weeks PayPal blamed me for everything from Stupidity to giving my Passward out.
Anyway, about two weeks later they said they had caught the culprit and refunded my money (well, actually my bank had held up the transaction). No further explanation, nor an apology. I asked PayPal to totally delete any records they had of me since I would never, ever have use for them again. They [-]agreed [/-]promised to.
Well, wouldn't you know. Every year I get an e-mail stating their "Privacy Policy." The conversation always goes as it did this year:
(Recognize that the only way to contact them is a silly dialog form)
ME:
customer subject: Why am I still in your records?
customer message: Additional Information: 'I received your "Annual Privacy Policy Notice." Several years ago I asked (begged) you to remove me from your records. You assured me then that you would. Why am I being sent e-mail messages from you?
Let me state my position one more time: Other than that one disasterous time, I have never used your service and never, ever will again.'
THEM:
