I know that for this site you're suppose to have a PayPal account but I'm wondering who here had a PayPal account before joining MyLot? What do you think about PayPal? I've heard a lot of bad things about them but have had a business account with them for quite a few years with no problems. What has been your experience?

I have been with Paypal for 2 years and have no problems with them. I will definately recommend this to my friend should they need such an account for internet transactions.

I highly recommend PayPal too. Don't you get some sort of benefit for recommending them to others?

I definitely agree with you. I just think that it's a shame that they're not available throughout the world.

I agree. They get their fees from you online then your local mac machine gets their fees too when you take the money out. I hate that. Do you get socked by your bank's fees on PayPal too?

Are you from another country because I'd be interested in knowing what the limitations are.

I don't think that bad things are all from jealousy. I know a few people who really did get messed over by PayPal and they were only customers.

I had to get a business one which I hate. There's fees everywhere I turn. Try to keep your free one as long as you can.

I'm a lot like you. I've had PayPal for quite some time but always rush to take my money out because I fear I'll have a problem some day.

I know it's funny how some people have bad luck and others don't. Isn't it?

I had a paypal account before joining MyLot. I have been with paypal over 2 years now and i haven't had bad experience with them. They are great. I haven't had any problems with them. So not sure what people are saying but my experience has been great.

My experience has been fine as well. I just make sure that I safeguard things and take the money out and put it in my bank account in a timely fashion.

I have had paypal for 6 years now, and have used it quite a bit.. I currently been using paypal now as a form of payment I accept on my webhosting site. Never have I had a problem with paypal. As long as you dont run a pyramid or ponzi scheme or mlm program, you will never have a problem with paypal. :-)

I think that's what my friend was doing now that I talked to them some more. Shame on those people LOL

Yup, shame on those people. See as long as you are doing legal things with paypal, you won't have any problems. Those people that complained about having problems with paypal, don't listen to them. Thats because they did some illegal activities with paypal. lol

I have used Paypal for a few years and also have a business account because I have sold alot on eBay. I have never had any problems with them. I think more businesses online should have the option of paying with Paypal. I like using it.

I think that more and more businesses are using it. It's slowly happening. I'm not sure why it doesn't happen faster though. After all, PayPal has been around for ages now.

I've had a Pay Pal acount for about 4 years and I love it. I've not had a problem with them at all. When I had a question, they were quick with a response. I use it for EBay also.

They do have excellent customer support. That's one thing that I really do like about them.

My work at home jobs also use this form of payment to pay me. What kind of work at home job do you have? I'm a freelance writer.

It is nice to know that the currency exchange rate is fair market value. I never knew that, probably because I don't deal with it hardly ever.

I sometimes think that PayPal blacklists some people wrongly. Otherwise they are good. I'd love to learn more about how you're a blogger for companies.
