Thread: Sneaky PayPal Policy Change

For those of you who are not aware of this yet, PayPal started charing a fee per transaction starting June. No notice was given, which infuriated many users. At this point nothing can be done except choose not to use PayPal anymore. Thank God for Google that will be offering a similar, free of charge service. The future is FREE! checkout.google.com/

Wow!
That was sneaky! I don't know why they hide these things from users... do they think that we will not notice it? wouldn't it be easier for everyone if they were clear about these issues?
Thanks for sharing Michelleba!

I don't know about you but I hate PayPal.

Every time I need help, or I need to know a fee or anything, their help desk is so badly organized!! I can never find the info I look for, it's like they intently hide the important things.
And the other day I was trying to do a transfer and they started asking all my personal information again. Why?? I had already sent them all that!! I don't like to be sending all my personal numbers over and over again.

I avoid using it every time I can.

Are there any alternatives to Paypal? They charge an arm and a leg, but I don´t think there are any (safe) alternatives

I'm still trying to find good alternatives for PayPal. Until then, more information on shady PayPal practices can be found here:

Thanks for the info, Michelle. I hope google starts providing this service soon.

I use Chase QuickPay.
