West Union, Illinois | I use PayPal funded by a credit card.
I've never had a problem with them, but a couple years ago buried in the fine print of the agreement was a policy change allowing PayPal to fine me for exercising my right to free speech. Quoting PayPal Breaking the rule against misinformation and hate speech“may subject you to damages, including liquidated damages of $2,500.00 U.S. dollars per violation, which may be debited directly from your PayPal account,” policy already forbade “hate,” “intolerance,” and discrimination, the new one would have explicitly applied to specific “protected groups” and “individuals or groups based on protected characteristics.” Identities under this umbrella included race, religion, gender or gender identity, and sexual orientation.

I think that has been taken care of, but it caused me not to want to allow that company direct access to my bank account. |
