Robbed of agreed refund
Just had my third run in with PayPal in acouple months, my other experiences with Chinese are all on here from afew days ago.
This time I recieved a damaged top from ebay, spoke to the seller who agreed they would refund me without needing to return the top , no problem opened case, recieved notification email from PayPal the seller has offered refund do I accept or decline, go to the case to respond. So I go to the case its saying response required, but there's nothing there about the refund, there's no accept or decline buttons but I can type a response. So I type I accept the refund offer hit submit, get an error message no explanation other then cannot be dealt with right now.
I tried for countless times over 3 days to accept the refund, no buttons ever appeared and no matter how many times I tried to type in I accept I repeatly got the error message, it was only for afew pounds and a top so decided it was never worth this much time and effort.
So I hit cancel case...Guess what????
Oh that button works, straight through, no delays, no errors, it asked why I was cancelling the case.. Told them exactly why and if they were that hard up for a couple quid then PayPal can keep it.. Yep that typed in and was sent just fine no problems at all.
Moral of the story, even if you have a decent seller trying to do the right thing, these thiefing g**ts, still make it as near as impossible to get your money back.
