I have seen a few other threads lately about this exact thing. I bet they are....

That's what I was wondering. I'm sure if this is happening then I'm not the only one to notice. I wasn't going to say anything initially either, because there's not a whole lot of alternatives anyway.

You don't happen to remember where you've seen similar complaints lately do you?

I think on reddit just a few days ago in /personalfinance I saw this exact thread where folks accounts wern't balancing, then a few days later they majically are.

I suspect paypal is syphoning off monies only for a short time, and then synching them back up.

I remember an old comptroller friend of mine at a small company (50 employees) would take all the accounts from the day (companies monies, bill monies, shipping monies, salary monies) which were all in seperate accounts, merge them and invest them overnight in stocks and bonds, then cash out int he morning and re-syncch the accounts for the day. Would make millions for the company over the year doing this everyday.. Turns out, if a fairly standard practice in US business to do this.
