Sony Suspends Thousands Of PlayStation Network Accounts in UK, Allegedly Because Of Issue With PayPal (kotaku.co.uk)

Posted by msmash on from the what's-happening? dept.

An anonymous reader writes: PlayStation Network (PSN) users in the UK who've paid via PayPal have had their accounts suspended. 'Thousands' of users this week received an automatic refund for purchases they made with the US money transfer service. According to game blog Kotaku, since Sony hasn't received money from those users, their accounts have been suspended. Neither Sony nor Paypal have addressed the issue yet.

    The headline in its current form makes Sony look bad, and this isn't necessarily their fault. The headline should read, "PayPal initiate 1000s of charge backs to PlayStation Network Accounts for Unknown Reason Resulting in Suspensions."
