THey get charged a 2% fee for credit transaction, which they pass on to us as a 3.5% fee.

But for bank transfers they do not have to pay enything.

Well, I have 2 funding sources attached to paypal, my small checking account and my platinum credit card...

I am buying textbooks which are fucking expensive, so I am trying to put them on the CC which I will fund from another debit account.


WELL THE MOTHERTRUCKING MOTHERTRUCKERS AT PAYPAL KEEP SWITCHING PAYMENT TYPES TO INSTANT TRANSFER FROM CHECKING!

MOTHERTRUCKERS!!!

THose cheap cock suckers are actually ABUSING a customer just to avoid the 2% fee, WHICH I AM COMPENSATING THEM FOR DOUBLE ANYWAY!!!!!!!!

WHAT. THE. TRUCK.

Is there a third party banking institution that I can use to make payments to paypal account holders without using pay[pal itself? I need to get my books on ebay, but I don't want paypal to keep looting my checking account. (which they won't let me remove...)

I just realized, I make a "fuck paypal" topic at least once a month...

There seriously needs to be an alternative.

Paypal needs to be sodomized... in the eye!

Google Checkout?

Greenzap?

Those are alternatives, but just like Windows, people won't switch.

At least windows doesn't arbitrarily take money out of my checking account...

Sorry, I've never had a problem with them and I've used them hundreds of times for ebay transactions both as a seller and buyer. Their system is set to checking by default. As long as you take a few seconds to click to credit card like I do, there really shouldn't be any issue. I have both my checking and a credit card linked to them. Seriously, just slow down when you're on their page.

Back a long long time ago, in a Galaxy Far Far Away - There were things, relics actually- called "CASH" "Checks" "Credit Cards"

Today these things are barely known- in fact sneered upon- with lines such as "To carry cash means some big black/white/mexican/person who's not the same color of me will jump me!" "Checks are not accepted everywhere" and of course the "OH NOES! CREDIT BE DA DANGEROUS!"

Same here. I never had a problem with this.
