Couldn’t use PP Debit for a month

1
Card declined and I couldn’t use the service for a month even after speaking to what seems like every department on the phone. Then one day it’s working again, I didn’t get a follow up to say what was wrong or anything. Now today I wake up with another decline when there’s clearly money in my connected account.

Works seamlessly

5
Works seamlessly - lots of vendors and retailers adopting the service - easy to use with clear, concise instructions with how payment are split and how they get paid back - with an option to clear earlier if you want to. customer support is very helpful if you get stuck and need a hand as well and pretty easy to get in touch with.

Great for my use

5
It allows me to send and receive money quickly, making it especially useful for online shopping and international transactions. The interface is generally user-friendly, and its buyer protection policies offer an added layer of security. However, fees can sometimes be higher compared to other services, and account limitations or holds may occur unexpectedly. Overall, PayPal remains a reliable option for digital payments, particularly for me who value accessibility and global reach. Reviewed on: 26th April 2026

Pay pal helps Tecnodinosaur!

I have found Pay pal to be my 'go to' for purchasing because it protects, supports and have really helpful people who can sort out your problems. AS a pensioner with little tech saviness Pay pal give me confidence and are always there when I get it wrong. Reviewed on: 26th April 2026

Highly recommend

I've been using Paypal for a long time, and I have never experience any issues spreading out my 'pay in 3' payments, which has been very especially if I did not have the cash to pay in full upfront. I also like the way they immediately show on the credit reference files that I have completed my 'pay in 3' in full. Other pay later companies tend to make it slightly difficult to be accepted on the 'pay in 3', and this can be very off putting. Reviewed on: 26th April 2026
