Approvals
The following is a change to the terms and conditions just announced. There are others and presumably anyone with an account will get a notification.
Effective: November 20, 2021

" We are introducing an annual account inactivity fee of $20 CAD."


Reckon that could make them a bit of money from folks that have forgotten they have an account or for whatever other reason are unable or discontinue using same.

re: PayPal changes

How long does the account have to be inactive to be charged the $20?

re: PayPal changes

If you have a linked bank account I would quickly unlink it ,if you have no money in your Paypal account they can't get $20.00 but if your bank account is linked they can theoretically keep taking it out?

re: PayPal changes

The web page does not say, but I would assume after 1 year of no activity.
Here is the relevant page.
https://www.paypal.com/ca/webapps/mpp/ua/upcoming-policies-full?locale.x=en_CA&utm_source=epsilon&utm_campaign=A_OW_EM_AH_HR_NI_NI_202108_150985_CA_UA_Updates_2021_LR_EN_CA_en_US&utm_medium=email

Just noted that this applies to PayPal Canada, not sure on anywhere else.

Sheepshanks:

I sent a message to PayPal asking how long the account has to be inactive.

I will report back when I get an answer.

Sheepshanks:

I sent and received a message from PayPal regarding the $20 inactivity fee for Canadians. The fee will only be applied if your account is inactive for one year.

That seems fair.

re: PayPal changes

The $20 charge seems to be only Canada. I received an email yesterday with changes in USA...
