    I too want to change to MB. It is getting hard to pay paypal for our personal account also. All the hard earned money gets easily into paypal account through commission and their service is very bad. My issue is not resolved though four of their representatives replied back :(

    I still find its the best which is semi depressing. For years now we have heard something else was going to compete but even now Google checkout isn't rally giving Google any pause to reconsider.

    I wouldn't say so ! PayPal is build to earn money and they don't care about user feedback ( tough, I receive their feedback requests every week ). I had some problems with one of my customers and he asked for a refund - for sure, I would refund it asap without any questions, tough, PayPal refuses to take funds from credit card and asks for a postal check. Isn't it ridiculous if a 10$ refund costs me 20$ + 2 weeks of waiting ?

    Earlier there was no fees on transactions in Personal accounts. But from 3rd june it started charging personal accounts fees for transactions which are or commercial purpose. Though transactions marked as gift or from family members transfer without any fees.

    But, if you mark it as a gift or payment owed, you are not protected from fraud as much as the other options.

    Personal account holders do get charged if they receive credit card payment.

    The gift option available is really risky to be used frequently.

    You guys can save fees by using "Mass pay" option, but i think it does not work with personal accounts.
