I would also recommend that you stay away from Paypal like all the other people on that website is saying. Paypal freezes your funds for 180 days for unknown reasons. You could always exchange your Paypal funds into Bitcoin funds in the Currency exchange board. So, if you don't want somebody disputing their payments to you, or getting your account frozen for 6 months, then go ahead and convert all your Paypal funds into Bitcoin.

Great advice! Thanks. I have never thought about this. I use PayPal, but I don't trust them in 100%. Why I should give them the opportunity to invest my money when they froze my account for 6 months.

how can reputable company like paypal doing scam?
i do not think that Paypal is scamming because paypal is very popular and great service for online shopping and i think that there is people against of paypal and they want to spread wrong news about paypal.
these are those people who have get locked their money at paypal without any big issue and paypal do not refund their hard earned money so in this case those people can say that yes paypal is scamming. If someone deposit their money in an account in paypal and trust on paypal for their money then paypal have to take care of them and their money.

They are just misunderstanding to use paypal if their account was lock they need to talk to the support directly in phone or skype much better.. i experience of some issue but they are said their need to verify because they want the maximum protection for our funds..
So they need some verification that you the real owner if you are just earning money already without verifying your account and get lock soon i think they are just asking for verifying so before you can use your paypal make sure that it is verified so that you will not experience somethings like that. paypal is not scam in my experience.

This happens to most of the users as they always show some very shit rules on that basis they can anytime lock the users account with any valid reason and their transaction charges are also high and their payment reversal terms is also bad, that is why it is said Paypal is scam, because users are using the payment reversal for scamming other users

It's not paypal fault but the users. The reversal payment or chargeback could be done only if the requested chargeback have strong proof otherwise it will fail if the proof don't meet the requirement
saying it's scam because having that feature is really wrong and have you ever done or ever tried paypal's chargeback feature?

The users are surely using paypal for scamming people. Because of their dispute and its transactions are reversible and that's the way they are making paypal as medium for their illegal acts. And for those victims they are blaming paypal for being scammed but they don't know that the true suspect are those people who are abusing paypal.

I do not think that is true, the fact is that most disputes are pretty serious and not to scam people, I think PayPal itself is also fine honestly.

Some people can get the impression that it is a scam based on some of the shady business practices that they've done in the past, like (relatively) unexplained account freezes, account shutdowns, and so forth. Overall their site is quite good and it is the most popular online payment service, but there are a few bad cases here and there.

I just want to point out that when PayPal freezes your money, you are essentially giving them an interest free loan.

I've noticed that now credit cards are doing the asme thing. Citi, for example, calls it a "payment float," where they hold your payments for up to 3 weeks.

BTC eliminates these kinds of questions...

There is no problem with paypal but those people who are taking advantage about that move of paypal are the ones who are doing it to the people who are not even new with paypal. That's why many people are complaining about it and just find some other payment processor and as well as the freezing of account which is just fine for paypal has the right to do that if an account does have a suspicious transaction.
We all know that paypal does follow regulamentation of each country, and you get a payment outside your country and without a website or product for those, it will lead into frozen funds, no matter what you say. Even when others companies does accept the transactions, paypal wanna all clear and clean, soo they dont allow to exchange between processors, neither currencies since they have the currencie service and the other one they dont allow.

Yes we know about that even there is no product for each transaction you will make there is no reason for paypal to freeze your account unless then can see some trouble or any transaction that is quiet unusual. Like having a transaction that has big amount and volume within a day, for sure that will make your account frozen.

Paypal is a great company, I'm sure they wouldn't be a scam. If there is a problematic user with paypal of course there is a strong reason, most of them are unwilling to verify data.

Yes, paypal is not a scam, it is just that there are many problems encountered by the people nowadays especially the freezing of the account, but then paypal is one of the good online payment service/method which most of the business uses before and until now.

Part of the problem, as I have just learned from another post, is that PayPal may not operate as well in other countries as it does in a North America. Especially emerging economy countries like in south east Asia. I guess I had originally just assumed policies would be uniform.

i personally have no idea about paypal, because i never used it and having no account in paypay, but it have heard about it that paypal is not a universal forum, but a regional one as its service is not available everywhere. paypal is also banned in our country.

This is my first time that paypal is ban in your country.. can i know where do you live..
Honestly paypal is most trusted payment method that actually has reverse payment if you deal to someone that giving service or item that not actually his offer.. so for me they are just saying its scam but in my own experience never been scam in paypal..

Paypal is not a scam and I vouch for that. I have been using their service since 2007 and never got any problem with them. It's just that they are a bit more stringent than other payment processors as they are legit and don't want dirty money to enter in to their system and nothing else. They work as per the government norms.

In my country, users can't keep their money in to the paypal account. Whatever the money you will receive, it will be automatically transfer to your bank account due to my country's law. But still I use my paypal account to transfer my bitcoins to fiat.
