[HeardIt]

As I know, PayPal wants us to contact seller first . Did he photoshop that he wrote to Meta and then he sent it to PayPal as a proof?

No mate, just say in PP that you contacted Meta via phone, doesn't require any proof.
Yes you get full ref anyway if they don't reply, it's says also in your claim.

Have one arriving today. So directly to PP, claim EB, and claim contacted them via phone. What about supporting documents? Do I upload anything, the empty box?

>I haven't received the item or service
>The item hasn't reached me
>Contacted through phone, unable to resolve issue
>Claim eb

Does it matter if I turn the device on since the expectation is that they aren't going to reply to the case?

why would you even risk turning it on until the case has been closed? that's insanity. wait the 10 days and don't be impatient
