~Dan Kap's review of PayPal customer service

GetHuman: So how would you sum up your experience for GetHuman's PayPal customer community? We'll censor any IDs, numbers, or codes and any inappropriate words here out of respect to the millions of other customers using this resource.
~Dan Kap: Agent was helpful and friendly. Only problem is that when he had to put me on hold to look up the answer to my question, I got disconnected after being on hold three or four minutes. But I'd gotten most of my question answered anyway.
GetHuman: Let's quantify your experience contacting PayPal. On a scale of 1 to 5, how easy is it go get help on a PayPal problem?
~Dan Kap: I'd give them a four out of five for ease of finding your way to help.
GetHuman: What about quality of communication. How would you rate that on a 1 to 5 scale?
~Dan Kap: I'd give them a five out of five on communication.
GetHuman: And what about PayPal's ability to quickly and effectively address your problem?
~Dan Kap: For that I would say two out of five.
GetHuman: And finally- any advice for other PayPal customers?
~Dan Kap: Call them early in the day or late. Don't forget any personal or account information you might need for PayPal to know who you are.
GetHuman: Well there you have it. Some useful feedback and words from ~Dan Kap taken from his PayPal customer service problem that occurred on October 28th, 2017.
