Paypal Akinika Minus Account

[Mikey_85]

Hi Guys,

 

I sold an item back in November via eBay.

Customer then opened a PayPal case for SNAD in February

and PayPal informed them that the item should be sent back to me,

once it was sent back, they issued a full refund.

 

 

The item arrived back broken and I called them up,

I was then informed to report this to ActionFraud which I did

and to provide them with the Ref #.

 

 

I did this but this was not enough, they want a letter with Ref #,

I am chasing Action Fraud for this.

Everyone at PayPal says something different,

one chap said the Ref # is enough,

then another said I need the letter headed paper from ActionFraud!

 

these guys Akinika have sent an email, of course I have not contacted them but I just had a few questions:

 

Can these guys affect my Credit Rating,

I never had no issues before and I don't want any sort of mark on my Credit Record.

 

Do these guys have any power at all, reading the forums, I see they referred to as potless DCA,

 

Any help would be much appreciated,

 

Regards

ignore the dca. THey have no legal rights whatsoever, and chances are youve been fobbed off by paypals CS reps.

 

Dont worry, they cant touch your credit record

Paypal have never yet to my knowledge taken anyone to court.

 

What will happen is you will not be able use your paypal account - any money paid into it will simply be eaten up by the chargeback. If you have a bank account or credit card linked to the Paypal account unlink them immediately as Paypal will simply take the funds from you this way.

 

Eventually your account will be closed but be prepared for the usual DCA letters and meaningless and unenforceable threats.

All theyll do is go " blah blah blah" shut the paypal account down and thats pretty much it

Thank you all very much,

 

Like the chap on the phone at Action Fraud, PayPal is definitely not PAL LOL

paypal dont understand english law or the workings of the law enforcement agencies. They invent things and get quite shirty when you show them they are talking rubbish as you have now found out. Look up the UK CEO email address and give them some grief.
