I deleted when I heard they were levying an inactivity fee in Canada.
I don't live in Canada, but that was a shit move.
Ah yes, charging money for not using a service, makes perfect sense! /s
From what that article says, this fee is only charged to a PayPal balance. I have no clue who's keeping a balance in a PayPal account, but it's not like they're going to charge someone's payment methods.
Not defending them, I just find it surprising that they have any customers this could even apply to.
