Not using Paypal is akin to buying heroin on the street

Not just in Australia

eBay is going to force PayPal also on the Germans. At least they will try. Let's see how eBay will insult its customers in Germany. And how about the "Old Europe"?

Paypal is awful

Personally, I think Paypal is like the anti-christ of online payment methods.

They screwed up charges to my account one time (costing me like $30 bucks or somesuch because they tried to take money out of an account I had deactivated) and getting a hold of them was an absolute nightmare.

It required a concentrated effort to even find out how to contact them - and by contact, I mean 'email hell.' Each email to what they call their "customer service" took them about a day to respond to, with a completely unhelpful, hardly associated-to-the-problem form mail.

Getting a human response took a herculean effort, and when that finally came it, was unhelpful. I never did get my money back and gave up. The person I managed to contact via email would never answer my direct questions. The whole process was infuriating.

If you think I'm exageratting, try to find a customer service number on the paypal site. It doesn't exist. I read that it was only after some litigation (or threat of) that they even started posting that useless customer service email address that used.



concentrated effort, and herculaen
