PayPal is the best modern-day credit provider

5
PayPal is easily the best credit provider by a country mile. The Pay in 3 option means I can buy things I wouldn't be able to afford in a one off payment, without having to resort to a loan or credit card. Approval is incredibly quick and everything I need to know is on my dash. I use it very regularly and it has allowed me to purchase more expensive items and be in budget. Also, a very quick process for refund in the events where I have had to return an item that was purchased through Pay in 3 - no fuss, just done and they inform me once the money is back in my account Reviewed on: 31st May 2024

Affordable purchasing!

5
I bought a train ticket to go and see a friend who lives in Wales. Travelling from up North my train ticket (with the help of a railcard) was going to cost me £80 for a return. At the time, I could not afford the full price of this ticket - I noticed that I could use PayPal’s pay in 3 and all panic disappeared instantly! It meant that I was able to pay an affordable price over 3 months rather than having a large sum amount of my bank instantly. The money came out instantly and I was emailed each time the money was taken with an update on how long until it was fully paid off! Reviewed on: 31st May 2024

Easy to set up and 0% intrest,

5
Easy to set up and 0% intrest, it is so easy to do and also keeps your monthly out going cash low and manageable. The fact it is just a few clicks to set up is great and clearly states your payment schedule for easy access and also updates on payments made and still to come. I highly recommend this product from Paypal Reviewed on: 31st May 2024

Pay in 3 is ideal for those times where you need to spread the cost of an expensive purchase. Makes it even better being interest free. Will definitely use the service when it’s offered again. Reviewed on: 31st May 2024
