For the x-th time I got the nasty letter from PayPal limiting my account again. What crime did I commit again? The crime of not being a person sitting in one place doing the same thing. For Paypal traveling is a crime and the freedom hating Paypal is there to "protect" you by limiting or blocking your account.
I wish there comes a day when I can have control and pay for things without someone treading on me like PayPal does. I'm sick of these freedom haters. Who are they to tell me what I can't or can do.
Hay PayPal, leave my account alone! Stop freezing it and torturing me to to jump through all the stupid hoops to get it deactivated which by the way is impossible when you are on the road. I don't have a phone or all the stupid questions they demand which I failed last time till I got organized. I hate this service!
SO WHY USE PAYPAL WHEN THEY DO THIS TO ME?
I don't have an alternative right now. Some of the vendors take only paypal and no credit card. What would be idea is if I could in crypto but that will not happen anytime soon most of these vendors are just Paypal. The good news it's down to 2 I have cut the rest and if the day comes I don't need Paypal I'm shutting them down!
WHAT'S INSULTING IN THEIR EMAIL?
"We need your help resolving an issue with your PayPal account. Until you help us resolve this issue, we've temporarily limited what you can do with your account."
Who gave you the right to limit my account? So now I have to work 1 or 2 hours figuring this shit out to get my account back? Are you paying for my time to do this? Hay Paypal how about 50 Euros for my time that you just did this for me to now do God knows what. And what about this insulting tone, help? I hate when a person comes to me to help me but it costs me money or time! Thant's not HELP!
"We noticed some unusual activity on your PayPal account and are concerned about potential unauthorized account access. "
I'm traveling! That's what's unusual. You see an IP from another country and you block the account. You have done it before idiots! Can't you look at your records? I travel, and to you people it's a crime! How many times are you going to lock my account?
"Please log in to your PayPal account and complete the steps to confirm your identity and recent account activity. To help protect your account, access will remain limited until you complete the necessary steps. "
Any what new hoops did you design this time for me to jump through? I can't wait for crypto to take of so I don't have to deal with scum like PayPal!
"The security of your PayPal account is a top priority for us and we want to work together to help protect it. "
How are we "working together" when you are forcing upon me to spend my time with no compensation for the time you are about to steal from me again!
MESSAGE TO PAYPAL
Let us worry about our security! It's not up to you to block my account! Take a look at crypto, how is it that over a million people can use it and no one blocks my dozen wallets NOT ONCE! In all these years I have not been hacked one time and they have never sent me an insulting message like you Paypal not once!
Why can't you just make a Paypal wallet and let me worry about security, and leave me alone.
FINAL MESSAGE: STOP BLOCKING MY ACCOUNT - YOU ARE HARASSING ME! It's not good customer service.
PS: Dear Steeminans if you know of an Exec at Paypal please forward this from an upset customer since I'm not allowed to email them and when I tell this on a phone to a minimum wage paypal employee he/she is not at fault or can do anything about it, plus I have no phone right now.
OK, I feel better now. Screw Paypal!
why did they limit your a/c? simply because you logged in from different IPs?
They refuse to say most of these companies (just like my banks) just say "unusual activity" and the only thing I did the last few weeks is log in to one time from a country that is not my country so I think it's that! Same last time. I did ask the minimum wage support rap last time he refused to answer saying we can't disclose that information. We are just trying to protect you! It's just annoying! I don't dare use the account when I press pay I'm always thinking here we go it's going to freeze the account again! What's interesting is that my crypto credit card never does that! Not once! I wonder why?

OK, thank you but I'm not clear what this is, are you from Steemit?
I think this security feature is useful for many people, but it should be an option to disable it. Just one more checkbox, it should be easy for them to program that.
I think that is a great idea @ropaga. Hey Paypal, can you please listen to this smart Steemian and make this happen?
