Super Freak
I recently sold $1950 worth of stuff on eBay (8-10 items to different people). I always transfer the money from paypal account to my checking just in case I get hacked and I like to use my credit card for the rewards and to back me up if paypal pulls some crap.
Well the money is frozen from me for 21 days to ensure no one complains about delivery and issues. I called Paypal about it and they said this has always been going on it just finally is applying to everyone. In a business perspective understand why they are doing it BUT it is so unfair to people. I see people selling stuff to pay bills. Well those people now have to wait 21 days and then wait another 4 days for the transfer then they can pay their bill or whatever.
Is this happening to others?
What sucks is there are now alternative ways of paying on eBay without cash or money order!!!
Its like working 80 hours and getting paid every 2 weeks. Well now its like work 80 hours and wait 3 weeks after that to get paid. F'd up eBay and Paypal.

Now my total is up to $3K. Its temporary but it sucks 8 ( that's not an eight). I told the Paypal rep: "You just worked 80 hours in 2 weeks. Im your boss, Im not going to pay you in 3 weeks just to make sure you dont quit on me. So now you have to work another 120 hours before you see your first check. Thanks for the work in advance." That hit home to her and said wow that does suck! No _____
