I do not like it. I had pending payout from two paying sites, about 30 dollars.
And now paypal froze these sites money.
The sites want to go on with alert pay. I do not want to get alert pay, they charge 1 dollar per transaction.
Dumb thing is, I am an upgraded member at both sites, otherwise I would quit. The upgrade was quite an investment.
Probably will have to run ads as reembursement.
I start to dislike paypal, the blocked sites were well paying sites.

I know what you mean. Paypal is getting rediculous these days. I have quite a few sites also that cannot pay by Paypal any longer. I am glad that I still have other sites that can use Paypal and can also pay by check or gift cards. I don't like Alertpay, Egold, or Moneybookers.
Grrrrr.

It just seems that every since Ebay took over there, everything is changing for the worse with Paypal.

What the heck? I have one pending payment in my account now from a GPT site, but I have been paid this week by others and they cleared just fine. Is this really true? This is the second message I have seen about this today, but I cant find anything on paypal.com or in their TOS saying anything about it.
Does someone have a source or a link that I can read?

1$ per transaction doesn't seem that bad if you have a lot. So , wait until you earn 50$ per site, then withdraw to AlertPay.
I know you don't seem keen on it, but what else can you do? *shrugs*
See if the sites accept Moneybookers. If they don't, ask them to consider Moneybookers. Their fees are a lot nicer than Alertpay's.

I am also extremely miffed at this situation also, because I always use what I earn in PayPal, for buying stuff on Ebay.
Now I have to start with Alertpay, which I was told has slightly charges, then I will have to transfer t to my bank, to then transfer back into paypal. Incurring charges all around.
Why can't it be possile to transfer money across these different payment processors ?

What sites did they freeze? There is usually a reason for such action taken against an account, not always a bad one. I have had this happen to me once, but webb mistress worked diligently until her funds were available again and payments promptly followed. She kept us aware of what was going on and has never let her members down by not paying. I pray you will be blessed with the same positive results. Please keep us posted?
