Budgeting Made Easy.

5
I’ve used Pay in 3 a number of times now. It’s easy to set up with PayPal which pays the initial payment, then equally spreads the cost notifying you of the payment date and monthly amount. It helps me to budget particularly for larger purchases that otherwise I wouldn’t have bought. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend! Reviewed on: 27th June 2025

Useless service provider

Bought a wind turbine, used PayPal for their “buyer protection”. Engineer came for installation, told me it was completely fraudulent product. It was sold as 4000W, produced 11W at max rated rpm. Engineer inspected the “generator” inside and it was not the same as advertised and pictured online. Filed a case with PayPal, they refused to help, closed the case with no option for appeal. After nearly 20 years using and advocating for PayPal for their “buyer protection” without ever requesting it, the only time I ever requested help it was quickly dismissed. I now discourage others from using the service. I would rather pay credit interest than use the service. Reviewed on: 27th June 2025

PayPal is easy to use and especially I love their pay in 3. It’s a simple way to spread your payments without worrying about it and they tell me when it’s due too which helps too. Reviewed on: 27th June 2025
