I made the mistake of buying some expansions for Civ 5 from Steam and using PayPal to pay for it. PayPal put a hold on the $12.48 payment for some reason, and Steam locked my account under the classification of fraud.
I pay over $100 for Deluxe Civ V from GameStop, and now I can't play it AT ALL because of a snafu with PayPal over an upgrade payment. How STUPID is that?
What if I lose network connectivity? No CIV 4 U? DUHHH!
I contacted PayPal and released the hold within hours of finding out about it and yet no acknowledgement from Steam a day later.
Steam even says you can't pay them back with another payment method, and if PayPal happened to reverse the charges your account is permanently toast! What kind of crap is that?
