Buyers Beware (Guangzhou Winston Automotive Supplies Co., Ltd SCAM)

Ordered drop front shoe boxes online from a company using the name UnicornPick
After ordering, PayPal emailed the vendor contact information for Daniel Store Ltd
Checked Youtube and found there were Overseas Shipping Scams
Tried to contact the vendor to cancel order the same day
Found out the information PayPal provided for the vendor was invalid
Googled Daniel Store Ltd for correct contact info and found *******@support.com
Emailed Daniel Store Ltd and they had not shipped the merchandise
I requested to cancel the order and wanted a refund.
They emailed back two days later with 2 Choices:
Charge a 30% restocking fee on merchandise that has not shipped or
20% discount code toward future purchases, if I continued the order
Keep in mind, I have not received any merchandise as of date
Contacted PayPal, but it's been hours and hours of run-around blackholed communication
Can only reach through chat, but it takes representatives forever to reply
Still going back and forth with PayPal to get $104.99 back
PayPal, READ your online Reviews.
It seems you may know or you don't care
Your Customers are being Scammed with your help and protection

Do your Research, company named Guangzhou Winston Automotive Supplies Co., doing business under a variety of names (Daniel Store Ltd, UnicornPick

Their policies regarding fradulant services are non-existent. (literally)

I recently got scammed for hundreds by a website which offers gaming services.

Paypal will do absolutely nothing about it.

Although, I have proof of their fradulant activity (via chat logs, transactions, etc.),
In addition to their own site showing blatant evidence of their own fradulant activity
(the service in question was basically myself paying them by the hour for their work; their site states
Guaranteed duration of time it'll take, in addition to start date, current status, and every other evidence
One needs to explicitly know they are not honouring their own terms, in addition to the legal
Terms and conditions they themselves provide on the website.)

And mind you, these scammers are verified paypal account holders.
I've already found a handful of people online by just googling these guys, who have also been
Scammed. And I'm guessing they too lost money due to Paypal's neglect.

I used Paypal, thinking it would be a more safer way to do transaction online, but they are
Much, MUCH worse than credit card companies.

At least Creditcard companies take into account what has occured and try what they can to resolve the issue,
Instead of just out right rejecting the problem.
(I can't believe I'm actually saying the Creditcard companies are good for something)

Last time I'm going to utilize paypal.
(Not to mention their biased exchange rates also play a factor)

Internet transaction Services like Paypal are lagging behind.
Everything, and I mean EVERYTHING is pretty much available online now.
Anything from food to services can be ordered online.
Thus they need to expand their policies to account for such.
They do not.

I signed up with PayPal a little over a year ago as a means to improve my credit. Everything has been going well until 2023. Seems like since the new year I have been having trouble. This is the second month to where they at claiming that I did not pay my bill which I have ever month and never late. When I noticed the same problem this month FEB 12/23. I called several times and was not able to reach a person for over an hour.
Then finally when I was able to reach someone, The rep seemed like he was so concerned and apologetic to my problem which he said somehow the automatic payment to my account got disconnected from my bank. Didn't make any sense, because Ive had the same bank for years along with other accounts using the same method of payments NEVER have had any problems. So again we processed the payment for me and updated my bank routing number information. So this wouldn't happen again. The payment was successfully processed.
Now today Feb 20/23 I get an email from synchrony bank saying that my payment was not received and I owe double what the previous amount, which means plus a late fee of $30 plus what I owe and the balance of next month added all due for next month's payment.
Obviously, Using my routing number and account no longer works so what am I supposed to do? There is absolutely NO one to talk to. The phone line just takes you through series and series of loops asking the same questions but no live person to resolve the issue. I will be taking legal actions towards this company if I can about my money and will be turning turning them into BBB as soon as possible. I AM SO fed up with this madness. Smh! Thanks for trying to be honest and pay on time but they make it impossible, seems like on purpose and I'm tired!
GET RID OF PAYPAL CREDIT!

Its a big news that Paypal doing fraud business and earn daily millions in illegal ways
PayPal also protect to Fraud

Ho perso il numero di telefono che prima era associato al mio conto paypal, e così non posso più accedere al mio conto e account paypal dal momento che mi viene richiesto di ricevere un messaggio o una telefonata al vecchio numero, che non è più attivo. Nella sezione "aiuto" di paypal non ho trovato nessun aiuto possibile, poichè semplicemente si consiglia di cambiare il numero di telefono dall'area riservata inserendovi quello nuovo, ma tale azione non è però possibile - contrariamente a quanto segnalato sul sito di paypal - per il semplice fatto che quando si prova ad accedere viene richiesto il numero di telefono! Trovo assurda questa cosa, perchè nessuna banca normale fa perdere l'accesso al proprio conto se non si dispone più del numero di telefono originario!

HORRIBLE! Takes 8 weeks for them to mull over a refund... UNACCEPTABLE!
I would not recommend paypal to anyone!

WORST COMPANY EVER! And the sad part is, you won't even see it coming. After nearly a decade with them and ZERO complaints or disputes in my account from customers, they claimed that I was a "security risk" and closed my account without any notice or explanation. On top of it, they froze my money for 6 MONTHS! When I asked what I had done, they said it was "proprietary information" and refused to even give me a reason. Imagine THAT! No bank on this side of the globe would ever have the audacity (or legal right) to freeze funds (AKA hold and use a customer's money to collect interest for their own profitable gain) for that long and without a valid reason! The very idea is prosperous and yet they do it day after day. They masquerade as a sort of bank and "merchant" but they are NOT a bank or merchant and do not have to adhere to the rules and regulations that banks and merchants do... rules and regulations that were set up to protect US the consumers. Think about THAT.

And the very best part is, when they finally do shut you down on that day you won't see coming, your entire financial future (and often times, the future of your online business) will be placed in the hands of some pimpled face, heartless support jerk who is straight out of high school and reading off some scripted paper. That's the courtesy Paypal gives you after a decade of your business.

So yeah, use them if you're desperate and stupid, and probably for a while, everything will be fine but just like that when you least expect it (and probably have the most amount of money in your account) they will shut you down without a warning or even the courtesy of giving you a damn reason. Do yourself a favor and FIND AN ALTERNATIVE!

This is by far, the worse financial service company in the world. The Philippine calling center is a demonstration of the worst customer support in the entire world. They ask your email address 5 times and take 15 minutes authenticating you. Then they can't help you because they can't speak English effectively and the connection quality is bad. So they transfer you to somebody in the same calling center - so you have the same communication problems. If they transfer you to merchant support - tech support workers Speak English, but they not trained, do not have Web sites and they aren't encouraged to setup eCommerce sites. So they don't have a merchant perspective and management doesn't seem to encourage skill development. When you ask basic questions about the API - they don't have a clue.

They say they're sending information to your account - but don't. When you call back to report problems with previous calls - they don't document the failure, and often repeat the same failure over and over.

There is no management escalation. If you complain and demand all day - you might get a callback by a know-nothing manager who has no interest or stake in the company.

I don't think Paypal is going to survive - the number of ruined business, frozen accounts, angry merchants and frustrated developers is going up - not down. This is actually a national security threat - since they can't freeze bank accounts without explanation or 3rd party audit.

It is about time for the class action law suit - and also maybe a buyout.

After trying to work with Paypal 22 years, I have virtually no confidence in the executives and founders to address these terrible problems - after all it is Elon Musk. Everything he touches turns into a confused hell on earth.

DO not use Paypal - switch to a competitor. So sorry Must has lost interest in making this company work. Note - working with paypal almost got Ebay put out of business.

End Paypal.

I prepaid for a rental car with avis using paypal. Avis told me they cannot accept paypal as a payment method because there is no card number to check the last 4 digits on. So the day of vacation avis charged me the full rental amount, plus deposit. After I had already paid in full and should have had a $300 hold on my credit card. So now I have an authorization and have already paid a total of $1,049. This is day 1 of my vacation. I ask for my money back from avis and paypal. Neither company will look at it or try to resolve anything in anyway. I am quite upset at this point. But hey everyone going on vacation with a family of 4 has multiple extra thousands of dollars available to go with right? I end the vacation 1 day early. Lose the money paid for prepayment on the days activites. $260 gone. Come back home and return the car 1 day early. So a total of 6 days. I call avis and they are barely willing to refund me for the day I returned the car early. Only after arguing with the phone representitive for 20 minutes. Now 4 hours on the phone with paypal the superviser named Ron finally looks at the request. He told me for 5 minutes or more that it was not possible to close out the case today. I argued and kept asking him to look at the information from 7 days ago. FInally they agree that I should get my money back and they will send it in 3-5 days

So to be very clear. Paypal advertised Avis as being a business partner that provides "deals" with. You can prepay with Paypal. Once you go to pick up the car Avis says "i need the last 4 digits of the card used to make this reservation". You say Paypal is a digital wallet that doesnt provide the last 4 digits of a card as its not a credit or credit card.

Avis says: we dont accept prepaid reservations without it. Then they charge you the full amount, plus the incidentals fee on a credit card and pretend your prepaid reservation doesnt exist.

These 2 are not very great at their job. They just tell you words without verifying any information. Ever. Feel free to argue until they actually look at the information.
