Issue: Managing, opening, or closing your mobile wallet account

Complaint:
I have been using Paypal for the past few years to accept payments from clients for my XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX. It is one of the platforms I used, and only use it about 30 % of the time. Payments via the platform typically range from $ XXXX {$6000.00}. 

This month, XXXX, three clients opted to use PayPal to complete payments for my XXXX XXXX for total balance to approximately {$13000.00}. PayPal initially held on to the funds for 3 days before they could clear. PayPal later asked for proof and documentation regarding the nature of my business and ability to provide the paid for services. I provided copies of my professional licenses and driver 's license, as well as links to my website where all the services are outlined. I also explained that the funds are retainers paid for court evaluations. However, PayPal determined that the information was insufficient. Twice they asked for more information. Each time they came back asking for more after discounting my answers. They have not identified their concerns. 

The current requests are copies of bank statements and signed contracts between myself and my clients. I have declined to provide that information, cancelled all the transactions and requested that my clients be refunded. PayPal did refund two of the transactions, but kept the funds for the third transaction of {$5700.00}. Instead, they issued a check from my business bank account linked to my PayPal account while withholding the client 's payment. 

I have requested that my funds be returned, but to no avail. Their actions are doing harm to my small business. I have been in this line of work for 8 years and have worked hard to be able to get such contracts. This back and forth with payments will cause clients to doubt my professionalism and hurt my reputation. 

I am asking for Paypal to refund {$5700.00} as its services were not used for any transactions. I no longer wish to engage with the platform and will be closing my account.

Complaint:
I was trying to initially get a car loan with XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and got denied due to my DTI being too high, which was impossible considering all of my student loans are deferred. I also lost the vehicle to someone else buying it at the price point I wanted and was planning on getting it upon approval because of this. I had someone in the financial industry look into how I could possibly be denied considering Ive worked my XXXX off to build my credit back up and have good credit so I know for a fact I wouldve gotten the loan and was told that the student loans were what was putting my DTI too high. They stated to me that it appeared a student loan was showing as active not deferred on my credit report and stated that it looked like it had been shown that way since XX/XX/XXXX. This information was provided to me on Friday XX/XX/XXXX. I was told to call the lender to find out what code they were showing. I called XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. They stated they didnt see a code but would email underwriting after I told them what happened and someone would be in touch. I then called XXXX first since I saw on XXXX that they were in trouble for coding errors. XXXX stated that they didnt see anything but that my loans were {$0.00} and didnt give any other info but stated I would have to prove its them. I then call Experian to see if they had the same thing. I was then told that not only the loan I was inquiring about showed as active but all of my loans that were taken over by XXXX showed as active and not deferred. Also my private loan from XXXX was showing as active. So I had to dispute starting with them and while I was on the phone with them my mother was on her phone with XXXX who admitted that they had a computer glitch and it reported everyones loans like this. Meanwhile the guy at Experian is on speaker and also my moms phone is on speaker and Experian states that the call is being recorded. I said good because you got him on recording admitting to an error thats affecting peoples lives and explaining it as if its no big deal because theyre sending letters to all credit bureaus about theyre boo boo. I stated to XXXX that I got denied an auto loan and lost out on the vehicle I wanted because of you guys. I also told him I needed that letter now because Im disputing now and I need documented proof. So he tells me to get on the site go to tools and print to send. But I also told him a hard inquiry has also been ran against me and now I have to wait and the inquiry will be shown on my report for no reason.

Complaint:
Wakefield and associates has claimed I owe a debt of {$980.00} originally owed to XXXX XXXX XXXX. This debt was supposed to be paid by insurance as I called back in 2021 to verify this with the dental practice. ( they said and I quote " do not worry about this, the insurance will pay this '' and that was the last I heard from them ) To my knowledge it has already been paid by my insurance. ( on my app i have i can see where there was a payment from XXXX to the dental office for {$980.00} ) Additionally, XXXX XXXX XXXX never notified me of any owed debt via any method. ( therefore I was not given any opportunity to pay a debt I had no knowledge of ) furthermore Wakefield and Associates has not notified me of any debt either. How can an individual pay a debt they are not notified of/aware of? That's not operating in good business or fair practice by either business.
