Pay Pal

Any body use it ?

Any experiences with it , or anything ?
Not even sure how it works, but am
Buying on a site and not sure to use the credit card or pay pal .

Any advice gratefully accepted .

Thanks in advance

 

have used pay pal before its alot safer than credit card. You can get ur money back thru pay pal if ya dont recieve the goods ya payed for aswell

 

Use Paypal.It is the safest form of payment on the net in MY experience.Could not fault it.

 

thanks.
good advice.

do pay pal take your credit card number or how does it work ?

 

I haven't used it myself but a friend of mine had a problem with a fraudulent seller on Ebay and paypal weren't a bit helpful. Basically said there was nothing they could do and wouldn't give him a refund.

In saying that I its widely used and most people don't have a problem with it.

 

Bit of common sense on ebay and you will be safe.Check their feedback and comments.If new or alot of negative feedback then don't buy from them.

 

Hi

As an alternative, NETeller can be quite good also ... just like Paypal in many respects, offers the advantate of a Mastercard debit card too.

Think the charges are similar. NETeller is still used a fair bit for online gambling, whereas think PayPal totally left this world when it was bought out by Ebay.

Neteller is a quoted company, on London's LSE / AIM, can't recall which and is regulated by the British Financial Regulator etc.

check out: www.neteller.com if you want more info.




I think there's also another competitor called Moneybookers but not familar with it to be honest.

 

Again ta to all for the feedback.

Garrett , checked the site Im buying off and it takes CC and pay pal , dosen't mentioned NETeller !

Appreciate this.

 

Yeah I agree with ya there. But its just someone posted that you could get your money back if you don't receive the goods, but from what I hear, thats not the case.

I see someone has set up an "anti-paypal" wesite haha have a look www.paypalsucks.com

 

www.paypalsucks.com

I know it only takes 1 Loo la to set up a web site like that but it does
put a doubt in my mind.

 

True it probably was set up by some lunatic and I wasn't pointing to it as reference for whether you should use paypal or anything, just thought was interesting. As the others have said, once you're careful who you are buying from i think you'll be fine. Is the website you're buying from reputable enough? If so should be grand

i think it is , thats why I was going just to use the CC , then I seen PP and said Id ask here about it. Sure now I dont know my own name never mind what to use !!!

 

but you do use it D13 ?

Ive had a look, I register my debit card with them and then ......

 

thanks, again, for all they help, everyone.

 

No probs with paypal for me have used it for a few years

 

same here.

To be honest, whenever I'm buying anything onine, I just use my Visa card without worry. As I see it:

- there's 90 day purchase protection on most things, if you buy on credit card

- if there's a problem, you get onto your bank tell them yourself & the merchant are in dispute as you've never received your goods etc and they will freeze the payment - the term they use is "it's in dispute". This lasts for 90 days, after which time if the dispute is not resolved, I think you get your dosh back (might want to confirm this one). OK, occassionally, your bank will need a kick to get them to do this, but they will if pushed a little.
