Pros: Quick Payments Cons: Bad Customer Service
I signed up for paypal once they opened the internet doors. In the beginning it was very nice to be able to accept credit cards online without a merchant account. Its was all great.
No Fees. No long waiting periods for Customer service...

Pros: Makes online payments easy Cons: Limited to online use -- won't help you take CC's in real life
I was leary about signing up for online payment services and giving them bank account information, but I was tempted by their sign-up bonus, so... I went ahead and gave PayPal a try. So far, I have had no problems with security and am very pleased with...

Pros: makes ebay easier Cons: some people don't want to use their credit card
Finally! Buying and Selling on Ebay is easy! Yes, I loved the $10 referral bonus that paypal offered. They've changed it to $5 for each referral, but I would use it even without the bonus.
Before paypal, a buyer would either have to go out...

Pros: It's free, easy, and lots of people use it Cons: It's not in your pocket

Pros: fast, conveinant, free service Cons: hubby cant have a seperate account
Paypal has been a very handy resource for me so far. I first went to it because I was told if I signed up under someone else I would get free shipping on one of their auctions at Ebay. It seemed like a good deal plus paypal at the time was giving out...

Pros: Accessible, Convenient, Reliable Availability Cons: Lack of Proper Software Design and Corporate Responsibility
PayPal is a wonderful approach to the concept of payment via the web. It meets a growing need. In their haste to get to market, however, I feel they have not adequately protected their users!!
They seem to have a plan for growth. They are...

Pros: I do not have anything good to say about this company at all!! Cons: Not Safe, Holds funds when transactions are denied without cause & will not make good on their mistakes. Wait time on Hold to talk to someone at Paypal was 50 minutes!!
Previously, I wrote an epinion on PayPal that was favorable. I had in the past only used PayPal for small transactions. Until now, when I bid on and won an auction through Ebay for over $150.00 and tried to pay for it, using PayPal. After reading my...

Pros: Easy and convenient Cons: Was difficult for me to set up
I signed up for a X.com account at the beginning of this year. I had won an auction and it was recommended by the seller that I sign up for one, especially since I would get a free $20 for doing so. I received the $20 quickly and painlessly and used it...

Pros: safe, free Cons: only available with a US address
For anyone who has ever bought anything off of the internet, especially EBay, you will relate to this form of payment and will probably, if not already, want to use it. Why? Because PayPal is an excellent source for money transfers. PayPal is safe and...
