They do lol. It's illegal for them to provide the service if you're under 18 as you can't agree to a contract, and it's illegal for you to provide false details when you sign up.

Surely they have to return all the money that was in your account at the time?

PayPal come up with ******* policies that are really stupid. - Most of the time it's just to make money out of people, but they are right, it's illegal to do things as the like unless you're over 18.

I don't see why not? He was told that you have to be 18 to join PayPal, so hes effectively breaking the law anyway, so he could be screwed. :P

I'd be on the phone to PayPal getting my account unlocked and paying that £40 off if I was you

They probably will attempt to collect. They will probably harass your parents some more about paying up and then later they start leaving debt collector cards in your door from non-existen debt collectors that are just run by Paypal :P

How did you end up in debt anyway? I'm not one to pass judgement, I'm not sure even why I asked as no matter what the reality is you will say you did nothing :P

I agree, PayPal are the worst money wire transfer service out there and their a bunch of Gold diggers.

My PayPal account got limited as when i received over £1,000 they were suspicious and limited my account.

But now there saying i can't use my account again i don't think because they know I'm under 18.

So I'm going to phone them up and tell them i want my money back. - Their 180 money back policy is a joke, why can't you get the money back in like a week or something? :S

They don't cover for Virtual items which is also a joke.
