Agreed, afaik most paypal issues came from people who fall in any of those categories: - Those who didn't read the contract - Those who didn't read the contract and actually think that financial companies are there for philanthropy and not for profit - Those who apply to previous categories, had any problem and insist that their ideas are the TOS or creatively interpret the TOS for its own sake. Indeed what they charge could be discussed, and sure there are good customers with real issues not derived of their lack of knowledge, but IMHO just the same that any other similar company anywhere else.
