  Old  Another reason why Paypal sucks

Hey Guys,

I bought the ImagePush.com package from sixmode 10 days ago exactly, so I talked it out with him and sent the payment (which would charge from my bank via paypal), and according to paypal it went ok.

I received £100 GBP today for some work that I'm doing for a customer and I log in to cash it into my bank account when I see the magic minus symbol next to the balance of 0.57p.

I check the logs, and it took 10 whole days for paypal to charge my bank card for the payment to chris, which wouldnt happen to paypal paid it and put my account in the negative balance without informing me.

What an utterly terrible service.

It's beyond a joke, After what happened last time (account got froze due to suspicions of money laundering) I'm really disheartened.

I think paypal is very good, ok the charge high fees, but you would if you owned paypal which is the leading payment processor.
If we didn’t have paypal, let’s say paypal was not invented...then the internet would be a whole different place, it would be very a lot harder to trade online for an example.

Before you all hate me, just think about it....paypal is a very good service really, ok it has its faults but so does so many other companies.

Just my 5 cents.
