Complaint Review: SKYPE

So I recieved 7 emails from paypal this morning telling me that payment had been received by some company named Skype. (now I have never in my life heard of these people AND I haven't ordered anything from paypal in over 2 years!!!) I looked at my paypal account and sure enough there were over 20 charges from my account, some were reimbursed some were still going through. I took a look at my bank account and there it was $90.00 worth of charges, 2 charges at $15.02 and 6 charges for $15.12.

I contacted Paypal and they told me that they guarantee 100% that these charges would not be taken out of my account, because at this point in time they are just "preauth's". They said if they don't come off the bank account within the next couple days to call them again.

I had to call my bank, change my bank account and now have to change everything else that comes and goes into my account, my bills, my paychecks, etc.

This company is a fraud and so is Paypal. They say that they have the highest security, but yet people can still hack in and get information.

After this weekend, I will be closing my paypal account. (I would do it right now, but can't until the "preauth's" have gone away).

This is completely ridiculous and I will no longer be using paypal AT ALL. I would recommend the same for everyone else. If you need to order something, use your card each time, don't save your personal and private information in a paypal account.
