I'm really put off by the fees they charge. I have had my go rounds with them as well. They tried to say I had suspicious activity back a couple of years ago and froze my funds. The only activity that happened on the day they claim it took place was two purchases at a gas station. One at the pump, the other inside. BULL! Then they wanted my statement. Well I think they are too nosey! I hope they enjoyed browsing through my statement and seeing my personal information and the companies I had made purchases with that month. I was NOT happy about their accusations of suspicious activity and it only involving a less than 10.00 dollar total spending in one day, from a debit card associated with the banking account on file with them.
Paypal doesn't care! So many people use it, they don't care if a few amount of people leave each day, jsut because they get more people signing up then leaving.

I'm very nervous about using paypal as a seller - paypal seem great when everything is going smoothly, but I had them lock my account a couple of years back and there was no communication or explanation. I set up another account after a while and that one has been OK, but I'm considering getting in to selling stuff on eBay again and I couldn't afford to have my account get locked when I had a high balance these days :/
Rendyi what if you use your Visa card?Check whether paypal will cancel it again since you already have your mastercard cancelled 3 times.....
I don't think you can even call what they have customer service. PayPal sucks majorly, but they are the biggest and there's nothing you can do. Sure you could tyr some alternatives like neteller, firepay, stormpay and whatever else, but PayPal still are #1.
anybody tried the google payment does it work and when is it coming to the rest of the word? Still no email from paypal...
Waiting to get my hand on google checkout, too. Only it looks like there is no rush in extending their service to sellers worldwide, sadly.
Big companies do not think like we small do. They have want to learn look at Paypal they are so slow as well. But i understand them it takes time to make quality and in Paypals case they did not do it. Still no email....
