Useful in many ways

PayPal is great for sending and receiving money from friends. I often make use of the pay in three option too for bigger purchase, it’s great being able to spread the cost out without incurring any extra costs like you would with putting it on a credit card. Reviewed on: 28th April 2026

Most reliable 5 stars

I rated maximum because I had problems with sellers before and I found PayPal customer service absolutely helpful and polite. I now know that if I have any troubles, PayPal will seriously look into it. I don't feat my money are at risk with PayPal. I stopped using other companies as from all I've used, Paypal is the one I can trust and provides attractive services/plans as well. Reviewed on: 28th April 2026

My experience with PayPal has been excellent.

My experience with PayPal has been excellent. It is one of the best financial services I have used, as it is reliable, secure, and easy to use for payments and transfers. I am very satisfied with the service and I regularly recommend it to my friends and family. I speak positively about PayPal every day because of the great experience I have had.

Love that you are awarded for your purchases.

Love that you are awarded for your purchases. The simplicity of the app and how user friendly it is. I like how it feels personal for me. I feel secure when I use PayPal and love that I can see transactions clearly. The only thing I don't like is that it takes couple days for transactions to come off my card so I need to remember to make sure I don't accidentally spend the money requires to cover the transactions.

Inconsistent acceptances for feature of pay in 3, never missed a payment, credit rating only improved and salary increased significantly 24k-£38,869 in 18 months and still occasionally rejected buying the same or similar value items from a pay in 3 approved retailer . Customer service can’t provide reasoning as to why or how to improve chances of acceptance … total shot in the dark Reviewed on: 28th April 2026

Always extremely helpful.
