Unacceptable

1
I doubt this review will win but this company is unacceptably poor. My PayPal credit purchase was blocked leading to several frustrating phone calls and attempts to login to PayPal. Despite repeated requests to download i.d ,which wouldn't work , and a lengthy round of security questions over the phone, l managed to speak to an advisor who suggested l try again in 15 minutes. You guessed it...no luck. Now l have had to cancel my eBay purchase as during my next phone call to PayPal the advisor suggested l wait 72 hours and that despite my repeated confirmation of identity she cannot override the system . This has been a total waste of my time and energy and is unacceptable. Reviewed on: 8th July 2022

Really handy

5
Paypal credit zero percent interest over 4 months is really handy for larger purchases and you know that you're in good hands. Paypal pay in three is great for almost anything as Paypal divides the total and tells you when to pay it, what could be easier. Reviewed on: 8th July 2022

Excellent,easy, trustworthy

5
Paypal is my preferred trusted payment method. The ease of merchants offering PayPal to complete transactions is always a big plus for me. I also feel protected using PayPal in terms of disputes with merchants etc. Reviewed on: 8th July 2022

Best credit option around

5
I love the 0% interest options. That are sometimes available over four months or 12 months. Dependent on the deal at that time. Can use it to pay for 99.9% of items. Great service. Reviewed on: 8th July 2022
