Help me figure out what's up with my PayPal $5 Reward

[/usr/bin/]

Pretty simple... I can't pay using friends and family without a $2 fee being associated with it.
Everyone else has a 0.26 cent fee but for some reason paypal wants to charge me $2 extra.

First person to help me solve the issue will get $5 Friends and Family (after the issue is resolved)

You were caught.

is it international?

No, my PayPal is Canadian. I have US currency.

They will add fee's forever now because someone reported you abusing the system. You have to call them and maybe they will fix it.

Are you sure? Someone reporting me? How would that work out? I have a business PayPal and my email is public for it ?

It happened to me before. Not sure if its a report. Not sure how they catch you exactly. But I got a warning on mine saying that if I keep doing it they will start giving me fees.

i would not recommend asking them for any form of help unless your account is verified or they will lock it asking for id and stuff

That's interesting I never received a single warning ;c Couple days ago the fee was 1:1 what I was sending... if I were sending $5 via FnF fee would be $5, total i'd pay would be $10... but now it's back to a fixed $2 so i was wondering maybe their system glitched or something?

I had a friend that this happened to because he only sent with f&f, and after he had alot of transactions to different people they added a fee. This should be because their system detected you "abusing" ( in their eyes ) the payment system. Your best bet is to call them.

Well time to make up a b.s excuse and tell PayPal i was giving money away to people online for free

Tip: Say you were giving way the money to friends and family, not people online for free.

hmm.. Won't they be suspicious why I have soo many different friends all over the world? And why is saying giving away bad? ;c

I think because you don’t use a bank account number like a check

My PayPal is Verified, and I do have a bank account linked also it used to work before.

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is why I'm fine with being paid in G&S. If you keep sending F&F to dozens and dozens of different people, eventually it's gonna tick them off.

I rarely use it though..Like maybe twice a month.. plus I process ton of G&S payments they shouldn't care >.>

strange, then... Someone or something must have attracted their attention. I also use it rarely.
Perhaps you sent it to someone who got busted for doing business with F&F transactions, so they decided to bust you right along with him.

Hmm I don't know the most recent people i dealt with are Derrian and BabyChicken so unless they have the same issue, I got no clue what's going on.
