Paypal all over again

ayma · 05-21-2011, 01:33 PM

I know this is a regular occurance, but again paypal is upto its old tricks.

Recently we sold 15 WSO worth $100 each and received payment via paypal. No problem for over a week. Paid some monthly license fees etc. Paid for an WS, paypal was happy.

Two days ago I decided to transfer the money to our business account, received an email from them saying the are transfering money and the status went pending.

This morning I logged in to find out that they have restricted our account. Why? Well I called them and answer was you have received money from different countries which is unusual!

So when I asked them about large amounts we received from other clients, the agent on the other side had no answer.

To release the money we have to produce invoices etc. Lol

So I have decided to dump paypal.

Now my only problem is that I can't pay for anything on warriorforum since the only method accepted is Paypal GRR

Accepting Paypal for anything other than eBay transactions is not unlike gambling except with Paypal you're sitting at the table with a crooked dealer.

All the problems with PayPal can be very easily solved. Read their Terms Of Service. If you don't agree with them or find anything in them that makes you uncomfortable then don't use their service.

You agreed to their TOS and you choose to use their service, which means that when they do something that you should have already known that they will do then you lose the right to complain about it later.

I haven't had any problems with PayPal recently. I learned that you should always contact them ahead of time if you are expecting a lot of orders (from a launch, new service, etc.).

The only time I ever had my account limited, it was resolved by calling them.

To be honest, I can't be bothered with them at all.

I use Google Checkout, RBS Worldpay, Moneybooker for my other businesses and I have never had any problem with them.

Seems like paypal would freeze your money for any possible reason they can find and I am not willing to pay them a commission and also let them gain interest on my income.

So, there, it's the end of them for taking commission from my earnings. I will however, use paypal to pay for buying on ebay, WF etc.

Thats why it's good to have multiple payment processing solutions. Unforcunately one of the downfalls of paypal is that they can close your account for whatever reason.
