Can anyone accept $30 via paypal for me?

I have a personal paypal account which means I can't accept payments made with credit cards but I can accept payments made with a paypal balance.

Can anybody with a business paypal account accept a $30 payment from a client and then transfer the money to my account?

Paypal say I would have to upgrade my account and then I get charged 3% per per transaction in future.

Any other suggestions?

 

For someone to accept the $30 would actually not net $30, it would be roughly 28.50, and then to send on to you would only net you about $26 in the end - let me know if you need help anyway though.

 

I am happy to take a hit of a few dollars - if you are able to do this I would be very grateful .

 

sure i'll take your money

 

If somebody can do this please pm your paypal address to me and I will get the money sent to you.

Many thanks,

 

PayPal lets you have one personal and one business account. Sign up for one of each so you can accept credit card payments at a fee, and cash payments for free.

 

Really? I never knew that.

Off to paypal to try get another account...........

 

I can accept the payment, but I don't guarantee I return anything

 

But can you use the same bank account for those 2 accounts?

 

I don't know, I've never tried. You don't get PayPal fees from Premium->Personal account, though, right? You could just transfer it over to your personal PayPal account and then to your bank.

 

Thanks for all your input on this. Problem solved.
