Product: Checking or savings account — Other banking product or service
Issue: Managing an account — Problem using a debit or ATM card
Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I filed several six unauthorized disputes on XX/XX/XXXX. They were all denied just two days later, when I can confirm that I myself did not make these transactions. I have asked an agent to appeal my case again for the amounts {$110.00}, {$31.00}, {$100.00}, {$190.00}, {$110.00}, and finally {$110.00}. An agent told me an account specialist will review my account, but I will be submitting a POLICE report AND asking for legal advice regarding my lost funds. This has been a very frustrating and inconvenient experience.
