Okay, now I'm completely freaked out. I finally got through to the Paypal confirmation page and it has all my correct payment info and order address, BUT the total and ship to address are BOTH WRONG!!! I guess the Paypal site is just completely overloaded at this point.
I was coming to post a similar story.
I kept getting the paypal was too busy message and kept resubmitting the order. It finally went through, but I noticed that the discount wasn't showing up so I canceled it and went back to TRU to try again. This time it went through pretty quickly.
Just as I finished my order, my phone rang and caller id showed that it was a cell number in CO. I normally don't answer unfamiliar numbers, but for some reason picked it up.
It was a guy who asked for me by name, and then asked if I had just ordered with TRU through paypal. He was seeing my order (and all of my info-address, phone, last 4 digits of credit card) on his order screen. His first concern was that he may have been paying for my order, his second was both of our privacy. According to what he saw, it was the order I canceled so he should be okay, but still.
He was going to call paypal and complain. I hung up and called paypal myself. The CS rep's response was less than satisfactory. She totally downplayed the privacy issue- "well, he could only see the last 4 numbers of your card." Hellllooooo, he shouldn't have seen any of my info! Supposedly, she was forwarding all of the information to someone higher up.
I called my new "friend" back and left a message telling him the results of my call. I haven't heard back from him yet. The whole thing is bizarre and to hear it happened to someone else is crazier. I figured it was a weird glitch. I'm not sure if it happening to others is a good thing or bad thing?
