There was a thread a few weeks ago which I barely scimmed over which detailed the new paypal fees for personal accounts. I didn't think too much of it because I hadn't sold anything through paypal for awhile. I recently did however sell something and used paypal to receive the payment and I was charged a fee which came out to 2.9%+.30 which I believe is the rate that premier accounts are charged for credit or debit card payments. Before anyone suggests to search for the thread instead of making a new one, I did try that already for about 1/2 hour but I can't find it. Anyway, what are the new fees for personal accounts. I read at paypal that funding something through a bank account is still free and also using a paypal balance is free. I only have a personal account so if someone tries to send me money with a credit card it will tell them that I cannot accept because I only have a personal account. What happened? Any info appreciated.

[quote name='ihadFG']Personal accounts you can receive money from family and friends as gifts with no fees. That's pretty much the only benefit now as far as I can tell.[/QUOTE]
you can do that with a premier account also, i just did it with my bro.

[quote name='ihadFG']Well then I guess there aren't really any benefits to having a personal account anymore.[/QUOTE]
I guess not. I think I will finally upgrade to a premier account since I will be paying the fees for a personal account anyway. Maybe I'll actually sell something on ebay now. Believe it or not I have never sold anything on ebay before. Although, since I was trying to avoid the fees for personal accounts on paypal, now I will have the privelage of paying paypal fees AND ebay fees. Yay me!
