My Go-To Default

I love PayPal because I can trust that my card details won't be stolen if I am buying stuff from an unknown website. Having a PayPal option to pay with also reassures me that the website is legit. I love the different options to pay with Paypal as well. I usually use Paypal credit and make sure I clear off my debt so that I don't pay interest. I have also used the pay-in-three options which is handy for budgeting, or getting something I need now without having to fork out for it all at once. Finally, if I am buying a larger purchase, for instance, I recently had to buy an unexpected ticket to attend a funeral overseas, Paypal has ben a life saver. I have used Paypal since I used to first lived abroad and run a business, it was my assurance that I wasn't going to get scammed when I shopped for the store. Now, I am back in the U.K and it continues to be my go-to option! At times when I have been broke, being able to use Paypal to pay companies like Ocado, Iceland and Waitrose really got me out of difficult spots! My friend's husband was also able to invoice me for a house removal and again, this was a life saver, as it enabled me to move from one city to the next when I was completely broke! By doing that, I was able to secure a job and sort out my finances! Finally, some companies give you credit options (usually interest free) for large purchases, like the Apple Store, which I have used... all of this makes managing my finances easier. SO, thank you PayPal and long may you continue to reign! Reviewed on: 1st August 2022

PayPal, It's the future.

PayPal means life can be lived now not tomorrow. I sometimes wish it also came in the form of a credit card. They are trustworthy, easy to use, easy payment plans, i love it & i use it all the time. Reviewed on: 1st August 2022

Great

easy to use and great way of purchasing Reviewed on: 1st August 2022

Best Payment and credit service online

Easy to use, very user friendly. I use paypal as the middle ware for payment for many services. Reviewed on: 1st August 2022

0% interest for 4 months is a lifesaver

I find it really helpful having the option to pay in 4 / 3. It reduces my stress about paying off a costly item in its entirety , and improves my credit! Reviewed on: 1st August 2022

Easy to understand and all online

PayPal Credit is so easy to understand, simple to apply and to navigate around the website. Regular email reminders so you don't miss a payment. PayPal has been around so long I can trust them. Reviewed on: 1st August 2022
