Can anyone tell me a paypal story that ISNT bad? :P

[Giardino]

I was just wondering if anyone here has been able to continuously open and withdraw money from PayPal accounts without Big Brother coming down on them. I feel like every day I read the forums I just see more and more depressing posts =[

Once upon a time there was a big friendly company called Paypal, all day long Paypal enjoyed helping all the little people make money and ............

No, sorry, it doesn't work:D

[Alps_a somewhatlegend]

yeah I can OP..... they got knocked for $2000 a long long - like long - time ago and thats that - I even spoke to them and they naffed it off (I got lucky though so I dont recommend) but its all good in the hood.

ATM I am running 12 and withdrawing weekly and its all been sweet for 4 mths and I feel the way I am playing, I wont ever get closed

On one of them the other day it got a 21 day pp money hold thingy - I think coz I never really left cash in there, they got a bit concerned maybe thinking I am a possible 'runner' - I will prove them wrong!!! - it no major problem as I will give them what they want - $$££$$ just incase.

Play it wise, play it smart and you will be a winner xXx

Hope so Alps on my part - currently nurturing few accounts for a different game plan.

Here is the thing... We see only the bad stuff. The truth is, 90% of PayPal users will never have a problem with them.

Unfortunately, for those of us who are honest but were flagged in their attempt at rooting out the fraudsters, selling online can be difficult. PayPal is by far the most trusted payment processor on the internet. In many buyer's minds, not accepting them is the same thing as operating a fly-by-night business.

Also, the banking meltdown didn't help things. Prior to 2007, business credit was easy to get. It was all about MORE, MORE, MORE!!! Now it is about eliminting any and all risks, no matter how small.

The fact is, credit card and PayPal transactions are funded by investors. And right now, investors don't want to put their money at risk. So, anything less than "A" rated paper is difficult to finance, if it can be financed at all.

Add to that eBay's drive to lure larger sellers and their disdain for smaller sellers. That is what has created the situation we are in.

Things will change, new services will appear, the economy will get better. But it is going to take a long time. Unless, of course, the USA defaults on its' debts in August. Then, all bets are off.

At the end of the day, all we can do is adapt. I don't like change, I'm an old guy (well, in my mid-40's anyway) but we just have to accept it. There is no other choice. The internet has changed the world like nothing else before it. And we are just at the beginning of the internet age. In 2020, we could be talking about 2011 as "the good old days".

But "the good old days" are never what they seemed to be. It is human nature to remember the good times, and gloss over the bad times. You remember tha happy day you got married, but not the following week when your wife threw a frozen turkey at you. You remember the weekend that you and your best friend had a blast in Vegas, not the time a few years later when he died of cancer.

And, in the case of the stealth forum, we see the problems, not the good stuff. For every post that goes "I JUST LOST MY NEW EBAY ACCOUNT" there are still 20 other new accounts going strong. So don't despair. Life goes on. It always has and it always will.

Another thoughtful breakdown by Jeffweico - like an editorial ha.

Speaking of old days - checks in the mail and money orders in the post /nuff said.

You are allowing yourself to become depressed by believing everything you read. Your choices become negated.
'BigBrother' is hogwash. 'BigBrother paypal' is a company protecting money. Ensure you keep your money protected.

Stealth is a mind set. Hone that brain to be stealth. For everyting bad, there is a counterbalance of good, ergo, success.

Not that I intend to give you the specific number of accounts or withdrawals, but ,yes,I obtain my funds via the medium paypal.
Are there glitches? Sometimes.
Do I panic (anymore) Not really.

How did this happen? I read, re-read and paid attention. I print out their naffin' T&S everytime there is a change. 2 & 2 =4 in a real word. A paypal world that equals 5. There are certain givens, certain myths, and boogey stories all in the name of paypal. Find what works then do it. Simples.

Do I love paypal? Nope.

The way I look at it we need PayPal. It does have its benefits and for now its here to stay.

A wise man once says: " The root of all evil is money " -FandangKango - LOL

Im an old timer and i lose accounts and win accounts. I just keep making and going. Its the only way. I wished we didn't live in a money world, but it is. :(

[Imakemoney]

The simple fact is ebay/paypal need to keep their service user friendly for the beginners to keep their growth...so whatever reactive measures they take to try to cut us out....we will always be able to adapt and find new methods in this community
