“Personally, I’d love to see an alternative to PayPal.”
So would I have.
I have used PP forever and never had problem until a few weeks ago.
Fellow Fly Fishers and kayakers are constantly selling and trading fly rods, reels, lines and kayaks/kayak parts.
PP has been great there. It has been great until I tried to sign up for a free 2 week trial on Ancestors.com with my new Android tablet.
I apparent signed up with AC wrong and correctly with PP. I was never able to log on to AC. I tried to send a hold to PP, and I never got through. I contacted AC several times and only got long complicated processes to do on my computer, and none worked to cancel the order and start out again. They just billed me for a service never used because I can’t log on.
So I get billed for a $100 from AC for a year’s service, and I still can’t log on.
If I had used one of my Visa cards, that payment would have been cancelled. My credit card vendors want to keep our business. That doesn’t work with PP. Good luck canceling it now and get a refund.
Visa for its high end customers apparently has something like PP that allows you to use your email and a log in without giving out your credit card number charge purchases on line.
I will be checking that out. Like others I get worried when I hand a cc to a waiter.waitress and they disappear from view. Now, I sit so I can see their credit card machine.
Now that is something that's very good to know --tx!
I'd be interested to know how that works.
