So, PayPal and eBay are calling it quits on July first. Romance on the rocks.

Preview of PayPal’s new privacy policy:

“Amendments to the PayPal User Agreement, the PayPal Privacy Policy and the PayPal Acceptable Use Policy

Effective Date: July 1, 2015

PayPal is changing its User Agreement, Privacy Policy and Acceptable Use Policy.  The amended User Agreement, Privacy Policy and Acceptable Use Policy will be effective as to all PayPal users on July 1, 2015.  We encourage you to review this Policy Update to familiarize yourself with the changes that are being made. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THE AMENDED USER AGREEMENT, PRIVACY POLICY OR ACCEPTABLE USE POLICY, YOU MAY CLOSE YOUR ACCOUNT BEFORE JULY 1, 2015 AND YOU WILL NOT BE BOUND BY THE AMENDED TERMS.

…1.10 Calls to You; Mobile Telephone Numbers.

You’d do well to read it through.

PayPal thinks it’s worth robocalls and spam on my phone? Seriously?

Buh-bye PayPal. They forget that competition will appear which will capitalize on that stupidity.
