PAYPAL - HOW TO AVOID CHARGES
mark 2:
Now I've made some payments this week with no charge, one quite a high amount. And I just tried to send a few hundred and they tried to charge and wouldn't let me do an instant bank transfer, leaving the only option as credit card or echeque. So the only option was then the card they charge you for or the shit echeque way that's taken up to 10 days to clear in the past. If you click on the why box of no instant transfer option it says something about the system detecting a risk (because I've spent some lumps already this week?) and to protect potential fraud and eliminate risk. Which is dog shit because it then says you are at just as much risk from the other methods offered so it's just a big swizz to screw you for money. Anyway, with a bit of experimenting I found it accepted a limit of £130 without charging and allowed me to make a few payments of that sum to the same person on an instant transfer fee free.

hows this different from sending a bank transfer?
Sureley if we are trying to avoid using paypal/ebay, then we should actually not use them? ???
