Does everyone get these annoying phone calls from PayPal when using your Debit card? They call me every week to confirm what I have purchased with it. I would not mind if there was an odd purchase but mine are the same every week.

They called me Sunday and I told them to leave me alone. Later Sunday I returned home to a message that said to call them (I didn't). Sunday evening another call from them. All this to ask me if I had used my card on Tuesday and Wednesday to buy gas and groceries like I do every week.

I have now told them if they ever call me I will never use the card again. They sent me an email telling me how it is policy to check suspicious use.

How weird!! I have never gotten a call from them about how I use my card. They must have you flagged for some odd reason.

You're lucky they're just phone calls.

It's not PayPal, by the way, it's MasterCard.

They froze my card on six different occasions because of my purchase patterns. Each time I would have to call PayPal ("Oh, it's not US" ) and be transferred to MasterCard.

This is why I no longer have a PayPal debit card.
