Product: Money transfers

Paypal used the a method for payment without my authorization, lack of satisfactory response and security concerns. 
I used paypal for a payment. Paypal at the time of sign up offers various payment options being bank account, credit card etc. This is based on the the understanding that the user like me can choose the desired one at the the time of making payment. However when I paid for the transaction ( Attachment XXXX ) in question it did not give me the option and instead debited my bank account. When I took up the matter with them they responded giving reference to another case number and person. Further when I responded to them ( Attachment XXXX ) highlighting the mistake and security concerns, they have not bothered to respond. Request to take it up with paypal. 
Below are the details of the communication with paypal for referenceello, I am shocked by your below response as it raises fundamental data security issues and does not even remotely address the concern raised by me in the below mail. Following are the basis :1. Incorrect Name/Case No : my name is XXXX XXXX as against XXXX XXXX, indicated in the below mail. further my case no is XXXX as against XXXX indicated in below response ( extract of original mail with case no below ). This raises fundamental question on data security by a payment provider like you. Sharing my personal data with a third party is unacceptable. Kindly clarify the oversight. 
2. When I sign up to paypal, the basis of my sign up is the flexibility of payment sources. However for below payment it did not offer me the said flexibility and without checking debited my primary source of payment being my bank account. This is unacceptable and hence I had requested reversal and it being charged to my credit card. You can not deny me the choice of selecting a payment source when it is part of the service offerred. 

I also demand compensation, as I suspect due to lapse of control at your end you have shared my contact details with a third party ( below mail is an example ). Should you not be able to provide a satisfactory answer plan to take it up with the regulatory authority like Consumer Financial Protection Bueareu ( CSFB ) and press.
