I am lost as to why anyone would leave thousands in a paypal acct.
for any length of time. I would transfer the money out every few days to an interest bearing checking acct with debit function. That way your money is away from paypal and drawing interest. You can then purchase with debit card on that acct. If your purchases and suppliers only take paypal, You are dealing with suspect sites anyway. Real suppliers use real live merchant accounts. Which take most forms of credit cards and debit cards. If you are saying you dont have a credit card or checking acct. What are you doing in business trying to compete in the real business world?????

Actually most leave their money in the paypal accounts because paypal money market has a higher interest level then a normal bank.

But apparently paypal is not very safe.

I have had my two accounts locked up by paypal even after fulfiling all that they have requested. This is purely stealing.

I am having problems, where I had just been scammed by A CHINESE seller outside of ebay, I did call before i did the transaction, they said that the transaction was fully covered. So I went for it, and now I do not know what to do, paypal will not help me. Would consulting my bank do anything? Or should i contact the police directly.

I followed the link to bidpay but it redirected me to 'Authorize.net' saying that in DEC. '07 Bidpay discontinued services. Do you know anything about this Authorize.net'? I have had a paypal acct for quite a while but now after reading all these posts I'm getting worried. I don't have much money but I want to keep what I do have.

Thank you
Carol

I just checked into ** Link Removed: Only Available to Registered Members** and they want a total of near $80/mo in assorted fees. What's that all about?

Does anyone know anything about Authorize.net that has replaced Bidpay? Or is there an dependable equivalent to PayPal? I would sure appreciate any advice. Thank you
