PayPal: Not so Free five dollars for signing up anymore

by poneyby Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Jan 08 '01
Pros: Fast and Easy way to send and receive money
Cons: New requirements to receive free 5 dollars for signing up and referrals
I have been using PayPal for over a year now. I signed up at first just to receive the five dollars they offer for signing up. I didn't realize how often I would be using PayPal after that. I use it the most for collecting and sending payment for...

PayPal Updated: How to Protect Yourself From Fraud

by netKat Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Jul 24 '00
Pros: Convenient email payment system, great for auctions
Cons: Payments are just like cash, not regulated
If you are a user, or potential user of PayPal, you owe it to your wallet to read this review. PayPal has a loophole in the system for scam artists and you could be the next victim! Although there are over 269 reviews on PayPal in the...

PayPal.com --- A necessary evil in the world of EBay and online transactions

by three_ster Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 50, Feb 16 '06
Pros: no fees for buyers, seems secure in my experience, easy to use if understood.
Cons: hard to contact, even harder to contact a human
PayPal is what can best be described as a bank account on the internet. You can have money put in there, you can withdraw money, and you can have all sorts of monetary transactions completed by using the main PayPal site. In my case, I have used it for ...

Looking for an online payment place? Consider using Pay Pal.

by meleahk Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 100, Sep 28 '01
Pros: Can transfer funds via email, easy to use, pay bills, recieve and send money.
Cons: None that I have found
I have been a member of Pay Pal™ for over 2 years and I really enjoy it. I use it to receive payments from the programs that I participate in to earn money. Most of them use Pay Pal™ to pay me! It's fast, easy and safe to use. They have it set up...

I have read sooooo many reviewers talking about how wonderful Paypal. Let me tell you it isn't all it's cracked up to be. My experience with Paypal has been nothing but problems.... I originally opened the account awhile ago and used it primarily for ...

"Buddy", Can You Spare $.30 plus 2.2%?

by frazzledspice frazzledspice is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Personal Finance, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Jan 06 '01
Pros: Fast, reliable, accurate, convenient service
Cons: It charges auctioneers and website marketers a fee, while YahooPay Direct will serve them for free.
443 reviews have been written about PayPal's online payment service, but, as time has passed, the tone of these reviews has changed from "excited" to "angry", even "betrayed."

I chalk it up to semantics. PayPal...

PayPal, Fraud Alert!! Problem Solved.

by popsrocks Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 50, May 21 '08
Pros: Very easy site to use. Clean way of doing business.
Cons: Nothing worth noting
Many years ago I was actively purchasing Football cards of a favorite NY JET player. I did much of that business through the auction site of E-Bay. At first I was sending checks and money orders and waiting for them to clear before receiving the product. ...

How to lose confidence in PayPal in one easy lesson

by cr01 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Sep 17 '07
Pros: Convenient and easy to use.
Cons: Costs money and PayPal didn't offer me any confidence when things went wrong.
Paypal has to be one of the internet success stories, with millions of transactions going through its books on a daily basis. Although some of Paypal’s activities generate more than its full share of pathological hatred from its users, the website ...

PayPal: Liars, and Dummies, and Nincompoops, Oh My!

by pippadaisy Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 50, Jun 02 '04
Pros: easy to use
Cons: customer service that doesn't understand customer OR service
Why, you must wonder, do I feel it necessary to review an online service that already has 458 reviews? I've been using PayPal longer than I can remember, and today, I have finally encountered the straw that broke the camel's back. ~&~ The ...

Great idea, but Customer Service undermines the whole shebang

by JediKermit Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 100, Feb 20 '01
Pros: Can be a convenient way to transfer funds online--eBay payments, etc...
Cons: If you need to change address or other info, it's a real pain
Can I USE "shebang" on Epinions? Hunh. We'll find out, I suppose.

I haven't tried to use the admittedly impressive broad number of features that PayPal offers; I've only used it to send and receive eBay payments. Even at this shallowest...

Paypal stole $200 from me

by brookelorren Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Jun 03 '02
Pros: Easy way to transfer money
Cons: Don't let them steal your money!
Ah, the joys of Paypal. Accept credit cards. Pay for stuff fast and easy. That is all true... for most people. However, I think I have discovered how Paypal makes their money... by stealing it from unknowing suckers like myself.

Paypal ....A Good Service ........Just Be Cautious!

by twopeasandapod , May 27 '08
Pros: **Allows Sellers to Receive Quick Payment** **Allows Buyers to Make a Quick, Easy Payment**
Cons: **Fees are high**
I originally joined Paypal so that when I made a purchase on Ebay I could quickly pay for it. It was quick and easy. And it did not cost me anything to use it. Then, I began selling on Ebay to make a little extra $$$ since I quit my job to stay home with ...

As fair as the Mafia, Monopoly makes them necessary but you will lose money!!!

by wrldtravler , Sep 07 '08
Pros: Everyone has it on EBay making it convenient for sellers/buyers.
Cons: Frequent charge backs, buyer scams, no protection, loopholes, no customer service. You'll lose $.
UPDATE - PAYPal again wiggles out of a loop hole in its seller protection program leaving me with a $115 loss on an item. A buyer of an item of mine filed a PAYPal claim against me because he claims he didn't receive a bag he had bought from me worth ...

Pros: It's Free! Easy to use, and makes shopping online fun!
Cons: Too many limitations and their server goes down too often
Review of PayPal.com (November 27, 2000)

What a great idea! This is a web-based resource that the "every day" internet surfer may use to make free electronic payments for online purchases or to send payments to others via email. I...
