After a long battle i got the money back... i hope you do too but that you don't have to wait as long to sort it all out.
Andrew, you'd be amazed at the amount of people that call us not just to say that their paypal accounts were hacked into but that their bank accounts and debit/credit cards were hacked as well.

yet funnily enough, I was in Berlin earlier this year, and tried to take my own money out of my own bank account yet I couldn't because they were suspicious that my card was being used abroad. they rang me to say that they suspect someone's trying to take out money at one of Berlin's airports. I said no shit sherlock, it's me!
but my paypal got hacked the other day - gala online casino or something tried (and succeeded) taking £200. I sorted it out by contacting paypal, and they refunded me.
