While I don't really like PayPal, it is widely used and therefore you have to use it to some degree.

Here are my biggest gripes:

If someone sends money to the wrong address of yours, it is basically stuck there. You cannot send the money to your other one unless you validate it, but you can't do that with the same info. So, you effectively lose that money.

You cannot deny payments being made to an address to avoid above problem. Anyone can send payment to any address they want.

I would and have considered it safe to add funds via credit card or bank xfer. To my knowldege PayPal has never had an incident with this.

I always send money directly with a credit card or from money I had in the account (sent to me by someone else), so I've never added funds to the account. I've used PayPal quite a bit for over 4 years and never had a problem with it.

You all are aoiding natbeys question. Once you register click on add funds on the top. You can transfer funds out of your checking account. It takes three or four days to complete. I have only had pleasant experiences with paypal.

I had two friends lost some money with Paypal and Paypal did not really try and help them out. One of them even had their account frozen and i dont believe he has ever gained access again. This occurred (IMO) at no fault of his own.
