Call paypal customer service help8/18/2023 but after a frustrating day of attempting to communicate with something other than a machine, I believe a human may have actually seen my message. UPDATE: Paypal has responded on Twitter and my problem is being "escalated" to a "specialist". Why is this different? I"m hours into this debacle and no closer to logging in - let alone speaking with a human. I can usually get a person on the phone at our bank in less than a minute. This is beyond unacceptable for a financial institution. When this is resolved we will cease using Paypal permanently. Here we are, a business account, needing customer support over an ongoing transaction dispute. I'll keep updating this post as the blast-radius of this epic-fail expands. UPDATE: I am now facing the SIXTH and final available option: I'll try and use Twitter. I have now tried FIVE ways of contacting Paypal and all of them are dead-ends. What a complete customer-service disaster. So how exactly does one contact PayPal support? Paypal appears to have loads of customer support options, but when you scratch the surface, they effectively have none. So chat support is a non-option.ĮDIT I tried sending an email to and instantly received an automated email-response which told me to "use the Help Center". So Phone support is a non-option.ĮDIT: I also tried the non-logged-in Support Chat at. which of course, we can't access because. So Community support is a non-option.ĮDIT: The phone support lines have a frustrating maze of options, all of which (Yes, I tried all the phone-system options over the course of several maddening phone calls) lead to a dead end which says "We can't support your support request over the phone at this time. We can't access Community Support, because that too, remarkably requires a login. We tried accessing the so-called "Help Center", but it requires a login in order to access it, and we can't log in. We have urgent business, and there's literally no possible way to log in to Paypal. The system rejects the input of a new number (with no explanation). Trying to enter a new phone number is not possible. Unlike every other site, there's no secondary email option for 2FA to bypass the old phone number stored on the business account. Paypal, for some reason randomly started to require 2FA on our account today - and the phone # associated with our account is old. Why? Because we can't complete the 2 Factor Authentication phone # verification to login to our Paypal business account. The time of day you call can significantly affect both the wait time, and which call center (domestic or off-shore) you reach.ĮDIT: I'm keeping this post updated as the failures mount. Once you do it you will be connected with a live customer service representative (typical waiting time is about 1 hour 20 minutes – 1 hour 50 minutes). Then enter 2 and say “speak to the a representative”. How to talk to a Live Person in PayPal Customer Service To call when you can't log in: "Call us as a Guest" Have you called support yet?
