PayPal is the biggest payment processor in the world. It makes sending and receiving money very easily all over the world where PayPal services is available. I have been making use of PayPal for at least 5 years now and I have never had any issues with them.

RE: Do you make use of PayPal?

I have a PayPal account too. I started using PayPal in 2015 when I started working online. It was the only major means most website pays those working on their website.

As long as you're working online as a freelancer, you can never do without having PayPal account, otherwise you won't be paid. I have a personal PayPal account. I have heard about business PayPal but I'm not interested in it.

Over 50% of my payment comes through PayPal. I just started a new business and I'm looking for the possibility of using PayPal to receive payment from my clients.

I opened a PayPal account in 2017 and it has been helpful for me in making and receiving international payments. PayPal remains one of the financial platforms that is accessible in most countries.

I wonder what we could have done without having PayPal. Online payment transfers and transactions would have been almost impossible to take care of. God bless PayPal.

After PayPal closed my account fraudulently earlier this year, I decided not to create future PayPal account, I use my friend's own to take Paypal funds and it's easier that way for me.

PayPal is actually very good as long as you try as much as possible to work within their rules and regulations so that you don't have any issues with your account.

It's how you tagged it that they fraudulently closed your account that's got me laughing so hard!

PayPal is a pain in the ass when it comes to limiting and blocking accounts.

They closed one of my PayPal account too even after providing the documents they asked for.

Yes, I still make use of PayPal but if I can avoid using it with another option available, I will use that option ahead of PayPal.

I have upgraded from using only personal PayPal account.

I now also have a business PayPal too for my business transactions and payments.

Unfortunately, there's no other better alternative payment processor that's better than PayPal. It's why we are all stuck with using PayPal.

I was using paypal until recently and one day they restricted my accounts and froze my funds. A couple of clients filed fraudulent cases against me and they froze my funds and then refunded to the clients. I stopped using it

Really? That sucks balls. I just had my account verified and moved to a business account just in case someone sent a donation since it's required.

I haven't though about whether I may sell account upgrades in the future. Unless this becomes a pay-to-post site it's unlikely I will use account upgrades but I thought why not at least have a donate button.

if you are a buyer, there is no better service like paypal because when your seller tries to cheat you you can ask for refunds. However, if you are a seller and if your buyers files a case against you there is nothing you can do. Paypal always sides with the person who sends funds.

This is madness of them. There should be a process with handling charge backs. If you don't answer the case, they have the right to refund and suspend your account but if you follow up with good facts and win the case, they're not supposed to touch your account.

I understand that sometimes sellers try to cheat on buyers but paypal should also listen to seller, but sadly paypal makes money when someone sends payment, so they practically favor those who send funds rather than the ones who receive funds.

They are just being silly. If no one receives money from a sender, they won't make money either. They just have a bad strategy in this one but because they offer what seems to be the best service compared to others, people are forced to used their services.

Yes, I make use of PayPal. I just received a payment of $8 on PayPal for a service I'm to render to someone. PayPal is the best payment processor I have used.
