Thought i would share this because we usually don't hear any of the positives about them.
I just put the phone down after a call from paypal.
They were clarifying a recent purchase they said looked out of character for my account.
Everything was OK but i have to admit with a lot of the horror stories you hear it was nice to know they are making the effort.

It probably rang alarm bells when you made a payment to gimpmasks.com Glynn.

Paypal... keepin' it real... keepin it rubber.

Dave you sussed me

B no they rang my landline 1st but i didn't manage to get to it in time. Then my mobile went off, even though it was international it had the city of origin Omaha NE.
This is one of the paypal headquarters. I just said it was correct that i had made the transaction and left it at that. Afterwards i rang paypal UK to double check and they said everything was above board with the call.

it just made me think of the calls i get, the one's where they say there from your bank, and that they just need to check your details

As a rule Pay Pal are not bad , i've had a laugh with them this week as i transfered a rather large amount across into my bank account only for the site to crash , anyway once it came back on line i checked my balance

it came up as error and the cash was still there

so i did it again only for it to crash again

at this point i thought i was back on RAD

half hour later the sites back up

3rd time lucky so i had another go wooohoooo it went through no problem so i thought i'd check on line the following day as it shows in appro 2 hours now

wow it was showing all 3 transfers

fook in hell result , i rang them last night as it had to be done to check what the fook was going on as it was now showing 3 lots of tranfers in my bank and still on my pay pal balance

well today i've had an email off them saying there having technical issues they can say that again
