This makes for a really interesting read. It seems almost too much to be true but I can easily believe it reading all the various posts on the paypalsucks forum. |

essential stuff indeed never had any problems with paypal though. thank god. |

i heard on the internet paypalsucks is set up by a competitor and you can make that out close reading it and that it's a fact you'll only get in trouble with paypal if you are fishy yourself |

paypalsucks is conspiracy bull |

Yeah, I wouldn't really give much credit to a site with "CLICK HERE FOR OUR PAYPAL ALTERNATIVE" links everywhere. |

i thought that too initially but i've been reading around and it seems to add up. the paypal alternative does seem to be infinitely better than paypal. instead of some shitty online money holder you get a real merchant account. my account has also been randomly frozen. they don't respond to emails and have asked me for about 50 million pieces of personal information (most of which i can't provide. i mean i don't even have a drivers licence) |

not at all saying that i am going to use that 'paypal alternative'. god no. looks horribly tacky |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
why can't i pay with a creditcard directly? or could i do that on ebay? |

What gives that PayPalSucks site away is the massive long posts, exactly what spammers do or crappy marketing schemes, I don't know the psychology of it but it seems like if you think some person has put in so much effort to write so much it must be genuine, or if you read so much of it you feel obliged to agree or ... I always wondered why they write these long tracts, who is going to read all of it, but the technique does spell FRAUDULENT in big flashing lights. |

the only time ive ever sold anything on ebay using paypal, i couldnt get my money at all and i never did. the money just never transferred even though it said it had. paypal are wankers. |

i've used paypal for 2 years or so quite actively, both for servers, domains, paying various people, and i can honestly say ive never had any problems.. i didnt read the entire post on the ppsucks.com forum, but so far i don't see a reason to ditch paypal. |

paypal froze my account... i still don't have it back. But the good thing is it's caused me to go more ligit and mainstream with my pay solutions. It was a hastle at first, but now it's just how i work.... I'm not a fan of Paypal but it hasn't stopped me from doing whatever I need to do |

It's a bit of a conundrum for me. I've never had any problems with paypal and have used it for 3 years and I agree that the links to the alternative company do raise the bullshit flag, but I continually read more and more posts on this and other forums by people who seem to be legitimately fucked by Paypal. I'm almost afraid NOT to close my account because it's just not worth it to have money stolen when I barely have any as it is, especially considering that I only use E-bay a couple times a year now. |

the way to not have to worry about pay pal is to not keep any money in it as soon as you get some money put it in your bank account when you need to spend it it'll automatically withdraw the exact amount from your bank account |

Anyone check the banner at the bottom of the screen? I probably will go about closing down my paypal acount after reading this. I have boycotted all transactions through ebay with american sellers, and therefor have practically stopped needing to use paypal, but that messageboard gives me cause for concern. |

No problems with paypal. I'm on my 5th year now. Used it today on ebay. What really worries me is this "Uberweisung Plus" crap some use on german ebay. It's bank transfer.. IBAN Bic/Swift dick shit.. |
