Paypal should have a live support 24/7, Do you agree?

    I am wondering why Paypal don't provide a live support option! These guys makes a lot of money from transaction fees, so why they don't think about improving their services by adding a live support feature to the site!

    What do you think?

    Try calling their toll free number using Skype. Fire up Skype and punch in +18882211161.

    But compare to webhosting companies they have very very large number of clients so not easy (next to impossible) to handle live support at their site IMO.

    DON.

    Having a large customer base should be no excuse for not providing live support. They can always have multiple channels operating at the same time. The fact is they care a damn for its customers and are interested in just milking each and every transaction! :mad:
    Their recent fee structure is monopolistically outrageous! :eek:

    You are absolutely right...and you are one member who use this DP support extensively! :)

    Probably high time Paypal acknowledged this service and at least provided a waiver from its fees for such active supporting members! :eek: :D

    Yes I agree, they should have a live support feature. If not 24/7, then at least for 12-16 hours depending on timezones

    Paypal Does Not have 24x7 Phone Support! (Customer Care)
    There Email response is very slow!

    They must have a live chat support like eBay!

    Yup, their phone support is available only for around 12 or 16 hours I think.

    And their email support is also very slow.

    So, it would be good if they provide live chat support like Hostgator. :)

    Maybe we should start a petition online.. Or just make this thread noticeable to them, maybe if they notice that people are interested in that feature, they'll think about including it... who knows !!

    yes its monopoly. They don't need to. They are the best, they are not afraid of losing competition really. Many people don't like talking on phone and don't have fast enuff net cons to run skypee
