Alternate Service besides PAYPAL ??

[DJMiX]

That's it paypal has piss me off once again this Time I refuse to use them with my ebay.

Scum bags remove my listing becuase I have paypal for NON credit as my default paypal payment. I state it in my auction that link is for Non Credit Card and I will accpet credit Card from my other paypal account if the buyer wants to pay with credit Card.

These guys are greedy SOB That want to suck every penny out of you even if a buyer has funds in there account and can pay the seller with a basic paypal.

They are making people upgrading to premiere accounts , I going to file a complaint with my Better buisness bereau, Just how do I go about it ?

also I need a service like paypal any availible?

I headed over to paypalsucks
looks like I going to do some reading and hopefully find something good.

I hate paypal too, but they're almost the only show in town, so to speak.

What ever happened to the rumors of Google starting a similar service?

google pay is coming out within the next year or so I believe, not sure if it's a direct competitor to paypal or not. But anything is better then paypal.

Since eBay owns paypal... betcha it will become more "appealing" to use their service.

but still, monopolies are no good, if there were 2 choices, at least they could share the market

I don't mind paying fees on credit card payments, But I draw the line
when paypal/ebay makes me upgrade in order to list a ebay item and rapes me on fees
that I shouldn't pay from non credit card payments.

Totally agree. I already have to pay eBay fees on items sold, so why should I have to pay more money for money recieved. I swear they rape us with those fees. A $125 item would have ~$9 to fees.

Dude this is BUY/SELL/TRADE section, not for discussion...

 

[hottnucks]

Yeah count me in. I hate PayPal also.

The bottom of my auction states that I do not accept payments funded from a credit/debit card. eBay has'nt said anything about it and I don't have any trouble selling my items.

it's related so stop trying to be a moderator. I'm pretty sure since he's been here for 5 years he knows whats acceptable, at least more then someone with 4 months under their belt.

yeah, i hate paypal too, big bunch of greedy bastards ever since ebay took them over!

and unfortunatly they are about the only ones in the business of online payments!
bidpay went belly up, and i think western union are the only other one available
and there prices are really high i think!

paypal started out as a great service but their fee's are just way to huge anymore
but what can we do about it? it is such a handy service to use! sure would be cool
if everyone would drop them and boycott them for a month or so!

sure would be nice to see someone else step up and give them a run for the money!

Free account that attract people to open an account with them, but most of the accounts are still not verified that is the reason paypal is not winning trust from people as a whole and there are not real competitor of paypal so far who can really beat them in market place.

Is Yahoo PayDirect still around?

I'm sorry double post....

 

[mc00]

I don't trust paypal at all... I wouldn't even leave a penny in there hand... but I have to use paypal because when I buy from seller/forum user they prefer paypal *sigh

 

[intogamer]

Dude ebay/paypal upgraded their TOS a long time ago

Premier accounts required... not really but you can't have someone pay non cc

i hated bidpay with a passion back in circa 2001 or so. they had a flat fee of $8 for all money orders they sent out, and didn't ya know it, a lot of sellers from china only accepted bidpay. so i had to plan out my chinese movie purchases and buy in a group of 4 or so to make it worth it. i'm glad they went out of business and those guys couldn't feed their families.:beer::beer::beer:

I tried that, if they see that they cancel your listing. (they did it twice to me already)

Oh well

http://biz.yahoo.com/paydirect/index.html They have been closed their service.

Still there are good alternative if you are looking in place of paypal like cdgcommerc/2checkout/authorize.net/ google ( need to check review from real users) especially good option for US and if you are in UK, you may consider worldpay, and for EU ChronoPay can be best option.

I despise both ebay and paypal.

Please God let something else come along soon and force them to have better business practices or run them out.
