You complain mainly to the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS). They will assign you a case number and ask whether you want your case forwarded to PayPal management; you then reply with your consent to escalate. You will finally receive a reply from PayPal’s Office of Executive Escalations saying they are looking into your case, and after some days a full response explaining why they took your money for damages.
Once you receive the full response justifying the debit, you may reply using the templates the community published. Full details of the Singapore route, including the Small Claims Tribunal, are set out on the Singapore page.
