Question Has anyone ever written to Paypal in Luxembourg

My wife has a couple of issues with them and the e-mail response is poor and doesn't help so she wants to write to them, I only have the addr in Luxembourg and wondered if anyone had ever written to them and got a response

Cheers

Hi

I wrote to them for a con-merchant's name and address so I could sue in the small claims court. Didn't get a reply. I put the matter down to experience (I paid about £100 more than an item was worth but didn't discover I'd been conned until after sending in the feedback. It was very cleverly done). I would not take a second chance offer again!

I'd say you're wasting your time. Sorry.

Just phone them up..I did

I had a unresolved case in the resolution centre (nearly 2 years old) when I got scammed by some ebay thief.
It stays on file until I decide to release it, but the system didnt tell me that, so I just phoned them up to enquire.

expect to wait in a queue for ages though

i have had major problems with PayPal!!

they are trying to take me to court for an unpaid invoice since January. i paid this bill and provided the reciept they sent me but the emails i get back dont answer the questions that i have asked. they ignore the fact that they can see that i have paid and have called in Intrum Justitia to collect the money from me. the collections people have the proof i paid, which they accept but Pay Pal wont acknowledge the fact

i have had my account suspended for 10 months now...

Paypal ( .co.uk ) arent based in Luxembourg ( their registered office for all of Paypal is there as its a VAT dodge - Paypal are owned by Ebay, and their VAT is charged at Lux rate as well ) - they are in Ireland - wont help you get any sense out of them as most of the phone monkeys dont have a clue about how Paypal works !

Good luck.

The most mercenary company on earth who screw people over daily.

All they want is their money, just like their owners ebay.

I have had dealng with both ebay and paypal in a professional manner and neither give a toss about the people that they facilitate getting ripped off.

The wife has called and yes they are clueless and showed no interest in helping her out, just told her to open another account !

Hence she would like to write to them and have an adult read her letter and respond accordingly, looks like we wont be holding our breath then.

Thanks for the responses.

I got a letter from a debt collecton agency a few months back. I rang them up and said that if it went to court, I had enough evidence to tear paypal apart, heard nothing since.
I reckon its just a ploy to scare/bully you into paying. Paypal are bigger scam artists than half the scammers on ebay.
