Last month, PayPal held onto a large sum of my money and made it close to impossible for me to get it back. Today, I thought I'd talk you through how it all went down, how I resolved the issue and what alternatives I'll be using in the future. I was quite nervous making this video so apologies if that comes across at all! Thanks for watching, and don't forget to share your stories below if you have any! ·Links and References Mentioned· Payoneer; www.payoneer.com/ Starling; www.starlingbank.com/ Stripe; stripe.com/ PayPal terms of use; www.paypal.com/ee/webapps/mpp/ua/useragreement-full Consumer affairs rating; www.consumeraffairs.com/online/paypal_02.html Trustpilot score; uk.trustpilot.com/review/www.paypal.co.uk BBC Watchdog Report; www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/articles/B0Ss1cbvMdmsHpn1LkgJZz/paypal How PayPal operates; www.gizmodo.co.uk/2013/01/its-time-to-sort-out-paypal/ Detailed advice on making successful complaints against them (UK); www.thewholesaleforums.co.uk/threads/how-to-complain-about-paypal-in-the-uk.83395/ Number of complaints against them to the Financial Ombudsmen Service; www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/the_number_of_complaints_against#comment-76012 · Support me on Patreon · www.patreon.com/semiskimmedmin ·Connect with Me· + website&blog· semiskimmedmin.com/ + shop· semiskimmedmin.com/shop/ + instagram· instagram.com/semiskimmedmin/ + tumblr· semiskimmedmin.tumblr.com/ + twitter· twitter.com/SemiSkimmedMin + pinterest· www.pinterest.com/semiskimmedmin/ See original paintings for sale in my shop; semiskimmedmin.com/shop/ ·My Filming and Editing Equipment· + Canon 700D/t5i (UK) amzn.to/1WfIk0Q (US) amzn.to/22QND70 + Tripod (US) amzn.to/1OdXVfV (UK) amzn.to/1msvI8J + Adobe Premiere Pro See how I film my videos here; www.youtube.com/watch?v=wM_oXbkqM8U ·My PO Box· Minnie Small Studio 10138, Courier Point 13 Freeland Park Wareham Road Poole, Dorset BH16 6FH *Amazon links are affiliate links.
