What is Paypal charging you?


Paypal is presently charging me a 4.05% fee on transactions, up from 3.95% just yesterday. They keep bumping their percentage fee up on me - it started out at 2.9%.

Unfortunately, the fine print gives them the right to charge whatever they want, so my only recourse is to stop using them.

Just curious - what are the rest of ya'll getting charged?

Not only that some of us may find paypal fees a little high but speaking to their customer service reps is totally useless. I for once was so rudely treated and had my account locked up for quite some time just because CSR supervisor decided to "punish" me for my transaction error. Paypal should revise their customer service attidutes and conduct business better.

Wow Elizabeth, it's really nice of your comments. FYI I've been a Paypal member for 5 years and been through like a few hundred transactions. Sure not all are perfect to the way we wanted it to be but there's always one bad transaction that some folks like to voice out.

Secondly I am a registered Audiogon member with all nice transaction feedbacks. Should you bother to know more? Not neccessarily to let you know right? So what if Paypal read my true ID here and retaliate me as I'm currently an active member (some money holding in paypal). Hey, they did it once. Think I got better things to do.

Lastly I work 2 jobs as a customer service rep for 15 years, enough experience to deal with all sort of irrate customers day in day out. Always been trained to help customers out no matter what.
their customer service is just plain non-existent. You can't email them, they don't publish their phone numbers, .. in short, they suck out loud. Anyone who hasn't gotten screwed yet is living in a state of denial. It WILL happen, and you will change your tune once it does. I'd love to see them get sued/go bankrupt/get legistlated out of existence.

If we had a decent banking system in the USA, intstantaneous inter-bank transfers from account to account could easily happen, done directly by consumers at no cost. This would hopefully put scumbags like paypal out of existence immediately. Look at Europe's bank system as an example - they have had this ability for years. Our bank system sucks and is a joke by comparison.

Golly, lcklcc, if you are a registered member, why then aren't you posting under your member ID instead of an email address?
