    Subject: Dispute of Unauthorized Transaction by Paddle.com ************** On June 18, 2024, I was charged for a one-year subscription by Paddle.com **************. This charge was automatically renewed without my authorization. I checked my emails and have no records of Paddle.com informing me of the pending charges, therefore I was unable to avoid the charge. I originally purchased this subscription in June 2023 for an online business I have since closed in December 2023. Despite disabling recurring payments in my PayPal account multiple times, I was still billed for this subscription. On June 18, 2024, I immediately submitted a refund request to Paddle.com at **************** To date, I have not received any response from them. Simultaneously, I filed a dispute with PayPal on the same day. PayPal provided a timeline for resolution by July 3, 2024, and I diligently checked the status of my dispute every few days. On June 24, 2024, when I reviewed the progress on PayPal, I discovered that I was required to provide a response by June 26, 2024. I did not receive any prior notification from PayPal regarding this additional deadline. When I attempted to respond via PayPal, I was mandated to upload supporting documents, but I was uncertain about what specific documents were required. I uploaded my initial dispute sent on 6/18/24. This ongoing issue with Paddle.com has resulted in numerous bad reviews from customers they have scammed out of money. Regardless of it only being $12, it is the principle of allowing companies to nickel and dime consumers to death.This entire process has caused me undue stress and has consumed countless hours. All other companies have processed refunds promptly when similar issues occurred, but Paddle.com has been unresponsive and uncooperative.I kindly request your intervention to resolve this matter. I seek a full refund for the unauthorized charge and assurance that such issues will not recur in the future. Sincerely,***************************

    Upon review of my credit card statment/bill, I saw a transaction for $239.88. I did not make this transaction. The transaction date on my statemnt was 03/21/24 and it says PADDLECOM *************************************************. Under description it says: " ************************** NY for $239.88. Will appear on your Mar 24, 2024 statement as PADDLE.NETRENDRFORASTORIA **. The phone number provided on my statement says ************ which goes straight to voicemail saying "Please record your message" with no mention of who I am calling; hence, I am not leaving a voice mail. I tried the company again at ************ (number listed on the BBB website) and it says "The number you dialed is not in service." According to my phone that is a *******, Ct number for the alleged NY NY business HQ location for PADDLE.I have attached a copy of the transaction.

    - they conveniently don't have a phone number. When I asked for a phone number to reach someone in billing, I was told, "We haven't set up that department to be able to do business over the phone yet.") Different excuse each time.
