How to get paid now with Paypal ?

    Ok.. Now that paypal is all messed up, which of these methods should we use to get paid ? -

    1. Sending an invoice to clients via paypal - Through Service tab
    2. Sending an invoice to clients via paypal - Through Goods tab
    3. Asking clients to pay using service tab
    4. Asking clients to pay using goods tab + adding shipping details
    5. Not asking clients for payments till this is resolved (Which is BAD for business and good for promoting scams)
    6. Asking them to pay via other gateways (Which is not possible at not even 1% users would accept this option due to Paypal's monopoly in the market..Even I dont use any other gateway so far)
    7. Lets not even think about doing business now since we r not even sure when we would get the money we have withdrawn already !?

    Phew.. Pls advice,
    Jo

    Unfortunately option 4. is the only choice at this time...

    Whether the payment is for goods or services or any thing else, they just want their COMMISSION in every single transaction. They have became money suckers... :mad:

    Exactly, plus their cut of fees remains the same - so why do they even bother ?

    Well whatever your account tab go with Asking clients to pay using goods tab + adding shipping details option as it's best way to get payment! Also we can ask under Service option too as they are making system which doesn't allow money transfer if it noticed as Gift or other option, buyer have to mention subject over their.

    What about affiliate program payments? I receive about 800$ every month from Depositfiles, clicksor etc. What about their payments?

    I think affiliate payments are safe - they r legit and they pay their fees so paypal is happy :)

    Can someone confirm if this happened in the past? i mean, i had heard many times that paypal always performed some stunt every few months, but has this kind of thing ever happened?

    don't panic . If you can't live without them , even they can't live without Indian PayPal account holders. A huge lot of money is from Indians.. yet paypal throws some kind of stunt but by and large this should not be the end of it all. you will get your money and continue your business don't worry right nw - maybe wait till PP throws some other stunt :rolleyes:

    yes many DP members have reported that. However, one of my clients repaid me using the goods option (for the services I rendered !) 3 days ago and transaction still remains unreversed.

    :eek:
