So, if you are in Canada, the UK, Aus and probably anywhere except the US, this has probably already happened to you. If not, it will.
I went on PP to make a purchase (for one of Dan's superb offerings). Now, note that I have never sold anything using it, ever. Transaction does not go through. Notification from Paypal messaging: we require more information. Please submit a copy of your driver's licence or passport and a copy of a bill with no information redacted. What the fuck? Call them Monday morning. "We need this information in accordance with Canadian banking laws and your account will be frozen until we get it."
I say I will call you back and start calling the Canadian government. In short form, there is no such requirement. Call Paypal back. "We don't care. Give us the information or your account will remain frozen."
Ok then. Change my address to 123 Sesame St, change my name by a couple of letters, unlink all my payment methods, change my email address to one from tenminutemail. Go ahead Paypal, keep my account frozen. I can live without ebay and everybody else takes something else.
So sick of this horseshit. Suck my Sicilian sausage, paypal.
