“Been using for years ,mostly because you have no choice through eBay , they ,like eBay, have got really greedy with their fees now. However mostly it’s a useful thing to have. But I recently had my card misused without permission by a company, reported to bank who then reported it to PayPal as my card was on there, fair enough. Except PayPal froze my account until I can confirm my card. So I add my new card. But no, they want me to confirm a card that is now inactive and cancelled.so I try. But it obviously won’t let me. Can they help? No. Bloody useless 😒”

“Paypal works very well for me in Kenya. I make and receive payments efficiently. The best part is that it is linked to our local mobile money network which makes it so easy to transfer money from my PayPal account to my mobile money account which is accessible in any part of my country.”

“I recently had problems getting a refund from a seller in China (yeah that old chestnut !). The item was faulty and after numerous e-mails containing pictures and video’s to & fro they told me to return the item “unwashed, unused & in pristine condition”. I replied that this was not possible because when I used it I discovered the fault and could I please have a postage paid label because it wasn’t anything I did that rendered it faulty. They didn’t reply, so that was when I escalated it to the PayPal resolution centre I.D No. PP-D-64161551. Again after numerous e-mails PayPal replied that “the seller has agreed for the item to be returned”. I pointed out that I had got to that stage before involving the resolution centre. They said “read the sellers terms and conditions”. I replied that if I paid the return postage of over £100 the seller could refuse to honour the refund because the item had been used. PayPal’s professional reply was “If I take a television back to a local department store I would be expected to cover the costs of the return”. My point of this review is to warn people that if they purchase goods from overseas they will get no protection from PayPal even if the goods were faulty.”

“Paypal is no pal of mine! So many hacked accounts make this impossible to trust, no matter what they say this is not secure! When you are a victim of fraud they deny accountability. They love keeping your money on hold too, they say it's for security purposes but it's a whatever situation with them. Sold a legit item? We'll review that for 21 days thanks. Oh you want to now withdraw that? Give me another 5 days minimum just to make sure. Someone hacked your account and logged in on a foreign device in India and gone on a spending spree? Na that was you silly, were not liable for that. Customer service is actually shocking, literally people who will just read off a sheet and not actually give you a straight answer - that's if you can actually contact them. It's a shame they are the only way to do business with Ebay Anyway make your own choice. If you fancy your account being on sale on the darkweb then make sure your credit cards linked and be sure to sign up your family and mates, I hear they have a referral scheme.”

“If you like having hold on money for 6 months look no further. Paypal is the most shady operated business I have even felt with . They randomly hold funds for extensive periods of time to collect interest for themselves and give no explanation as to why ! Just yesterday I received a message saying they were done doing business with me for violating there policy (no additional detail) and they were holding my honest $1550 for 6months and then they would let me know how to get it . I contacted several people and finally got someone who had there head on straight . Ended up being a system fluke and they fixed it . You can’t be sending “system flukes “ to people that are trusting you as a bank . I am no longer going to do business with them due to irresponsible business practices and knowing now they can justify taking everything I have with absolutely no reason ! I am canning eBay on that not as well for the same type of practices !”

“I bought an item with eBay (forced to pay with PayPal) and they take the money instantly. Seller cancels the transaction offering full refund, PayPal puts the funds on hold until cancellation is processed. This takes 5 working days (read 1 week!!!) then when transaction is concluded, it’s a further 5 FULL WORKING DAYS to get MY money. I was told by PayPal and eBay that after the up to 5 working days I would get my money. They both are liars. I was also told by my bank PayPal has the capability of paying instantly but they chose not too. They are self accountable and I am looking into not only getting my money faster but how I can be compensated as this has left me with nothing at Christmas. I will keep posting negative reviews on different sites until PayPal takes notice though by the look of it half the internet hates them already.”

“I highly recommend this company for guaranteed protection of your online transactions. Although it took longer than I expected Paypal refunded me for the $550 cost of an item that I returned to an out of the country supplier including my return shipping cost of $15. Very professional people. Great Company.”
