How do you change creditcard, or add another creditcard?
I'm sure it's easy, but I can't find out!

Why? Too expensive? I've used it alot for ebay-items, and
have only positive experiences.

eachother...

well they don't have slovenia listed (at least they didn't a
while ago - haven't been using their services in a long
time), so i used italia as my country (which is the closest
country here) and that worked, but then there was some
confusion, so i opened a new account and it didn't work -
something was wrong with my password so i'd have to do
contact them and so a bunch of things to make it work again.

the only way i can use that stupid service is to open a new
account every time and i don't feel like doing that too
often. i'll wait for them to put slovenia in their list,
perhaps that will cause me less trouble.
and on top of it all, it's the most complicated money
exchange service i have ever seen.

Aye, I've used to plenty and never had any trouble. The
horror stories still come into my mind whenever I use it
though...

so your problems with paypal are quite personal and does not
really relate the service itself.

transferring money is extremely easy and it's all very easy
to use IMO. why is it complicated for you?

paypal is most definitely the worst experience i have ever
had with web. but sometimes, unfortunately, it's the only
service that some people use, so there's no other way for
me, but to go through all that trouble.

yes, it appears to be "me only" kind of problems.

" transferring money is extremely easy and it's all very

as i said i haven't used it in a really long time, but from
what i remember it could be that i ended up with many
accounts and started confusing passwords and
everything...silly really, but i hate paypal for that

not to mention, it pisses me off even more when i read
comments from people who are really pleased with their
services :)

paypal is great

fast and safe

not a single problem

just one, is that I have only 600$ left to spend before I
have to make a real account, which I think will cost me some
money

I had similar trouble with it when I first used it, editing
your account details can get a bit screwy :)

paypal never greets you with "dear paypal user", but instead
"dear [your name]"... there are some eBay hoaxes whining
around too at the moment. they are using a fake URL to fool
the user to input their username/passwords. after they've
received the info they hijacks the account and selling
"non-existant" items.

for the enduser it looks just like a valid account with
positive feedback and all.

i got an email from paypal today (dear my name), and they
are about to launch "paypal europe". i'm too tired to read
it properly now but it probably means that the services in
europe are getting better, and probably Slovenia will be
listed too.
