Mikeellis297 said:It gets better too. I went to log on to PayPal to delete what is an unused dormant account - found the account has an old phone number linked to it so because of 2 step authorisation, I can't enter the passcode they provide so now I can't log on to delete the account. You can't ring them and speak to someone, you can't contact them unless you log on - it's horrendous. I see there are loads of people in the same boat and their advice: log in and change your details....ahh, but I can't log in so I can't. What do I do?1

Miss_Trouble said:Hi
Havent used Pay Pal for at least 15 years.
Received a letter informing me I had to reactivate my account by signing in and buying something using Pay Pal.
I have until 16th December to do this.
If I DON'T they will charge me £9 for NOT reactivation!
Is this fair? A scam
I dont want it and I refuse to be blackmailed into using something I havent used in years.
Help please!All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.
Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.1 -
