Perfect PayPal Protection

5
PayPal is simple to use and on certain items over £50 it offers a pay in three instalments at no extra cost. If you see an entry of an amount that you don't recognise then PayPal will investigate and often obtain a refund. Reviewed on: 8th June 2026

First time was great

First time was great. Used it with no issues. The next time the option came up, I selected it, they weren't able to proceed and no explanation was given as to why Reviewed on: 8th June 2026

The best payment method for all transactions

PayPal is a safe platform and you have a multitude of payment methods that suit your requirements and with PayPal plus it’s even easier and great value for money Reviewed on: 8th June 2026

Deal time

I wanted to take advantage of a limited time deal on an item but didn’t have enough funds to cover it all. PayPal Pay in 3 allowed me to bank the deal and spread the cost without penalty. Reviewed on: 8th June 2026

Paying for items in 3 parts

5
I purchased theatre tickets with option to pay in three parts. This was a good way to buy something over time. When the next payment was due PayPal was clear and informative in advising when money would leave my account. I would use this service again. Reviewed on: 8th June 2026

Spreading the cost!
