BTW, I discovered something called Zelle, when my tango instructor asked to be paid by it rather than paypal.  No fees and it goes directly into your bank account rather than into a paypal account where you need to eventually transfer from into your bank account.  If Doug can set that up, it might expedite getting money without using paypal. When I was trying to pay someone via check on online banking, WF suggested zelle instead, so it can be easy to set up.

Well...Paypal has instructions for paying without an account but
everything on the page the send you to wants you to download/install
their app.  However, if Doug could create a "paypal.me" link and post
it, anyone going to that link can send him money from several sources
including a credit card.  For example:  You could send money to me at
this link.

paypal.me/inspector6

Any accidental donations will be appreciated  😁😁

I had an account with them a few years ago and paid for a few things with my credit card through the account, re-entering my credit card details each time. After a while I had a message from them saying I could no longer do it that way but would have to link to a bank account.

I have heard a number of horror stories over the years from trustworthy people, including a member of my family, who linked bank accounts and ended up in some sort of dispute which ended with PP taking money from their accounts which, in my informants’ opinions, they weren’t entitled to do.

So basically Paypal can fuck off.

There’s no need for things like PayPal accounts in Europe for person to person payments; we can pay directly and instantly into other people’s accounts with our online banking apps. For commercial transactions the payment providers accept bank cards, and credit cards provide very high levels of protection and chargeback in case of dispute.

I’ve been using it several times a week for over 10 years. No problems. In fact, they helped me retrieve funds from a dishonest merchant.

PayPal is free and safe. What’s the problem here?

Paul

I had an account with them a few years ago and paid for a few things with my credit card through the account, re-entering my credit card details each time. After a while I had a message from them saying I could no longer do it that way but would have to link to a bank account.

I have heard a number of horror stories over the years from trustworthy people, including a member of my family, who linked bank accounts and ended up in some sort of dispute which ended with PP taking money from their accounts which, in my informants’ opinions, they weren’t entitled to do.

So basically Paypal can fuck off.

True here as well for the most part. I can pay right from my checking account, but PayPal is usually easier and just as secure, Paul > On May 3, 2021, at 6:02 PM, Bob Pdml <PDMLBW@hotmail.com> wrote: > > There’s no need for things like PayPal accounts in Europe for person to person payments; we can pay directly and instantly into other people’s accounts with our online banking apps.
