Contact address for eBay and Paypal?

Hi,

I've been chasing a refund for a fraudulent transaction on eBay/Paypal since August. Every time I call, I am immediately told that they can see I am due the refund, but so far have only managed to issue part of it to me. Same story every time I ring - they will do the refund in the next few days. Then nothing happens.

Really fed up now, it's been 5 months :mad: So I've drafted a letter, which I wanted to send via Recorded Delivery to get things down in writing a bit more formally.

Problem is I can't find where to send it to. I want to send to both eBay and Paypal, as although it's a Paypal refund, it was eBay customer services that I've been dealing with. Cannot find any address details at all on Paypal's website. On eBay, I can find the following, but was hoping for a UK mailing address:

eBay Europe S.à r.l.
22-24 Boulevard Royal
L-2449 Luxembourg
Company number: R.C.S. Luxembourg B.120781

Please can anyone help? Many thanks.

    Thank you so much, that's such a great help. How on earth did you find this if you don't mind me asking?

    I find it amazing...one of the main things to check for on a 'legitimate' website is the presence of a contact address and telephone number. Yet eBay and Paypal seem to make these impossible to get hold of :o
  • the adress that stevie gave is the uk address of both ebay and paypal, here's a link to a site which gives the addresses, landline (non 0870) phone numbers and email addresses (non autoresponder) for ebay and paypal http://www.iwassuspendedfromebay.co.uk/forum.html

    good luck.

    Hi,

    Paypal appear to have imposed a sending limit on my Paypal account, despite the account activity in the last year being less than 10% of the annual sending limit.

    Tried calling them on the 0870 number, man at other end obviously reading from a script and contradicting himself.

    Tried the email route, auto responder with irrelevant and incorrect information and suggesting that I phone them...

    I have spent nearly an hour looking at the iwassuspendedfromebay link posted by Confused90 above, however I can't see any non auto-responder email address.

    Would anyone be able to help please.
