Why does Paypal "suck"? - Pharmacist - Feb 11, 2016

I've been using Paypal for about 3 years now, the first year I never had my address, or anything, and was getting $250 payments a week on it.
Now I have it verified and all, and I've dealt with chargebacks, I've only lost one chargeback of $30 in the 3 years.

So why does anyone say it sucks? I've never had a problem with them.

Because booter owners and crypter developers use stealth PayPal accounts that violate PayPal's policy. They have no ground to complain if they've used fake information expecting an issue-free experience.

Some people just don't have good experience with Paypal, a lot of people don't like it because of some of the unnecessary limitations. Also plenty of people just get screwed over with chargebacks & disputes.

Sounds about right..
I have 2 accounts tho, one is my private and one is my public-personal, and I've lost a few chargebacks on the personal, but I've never been limited and I've never had my money taken away unfairly.

If you sell on eBay, they take crazy fees.

It's just to process the money too, they make money from doing nothing. Lol.

Because the average HF member violates their AUP(acceptable use policy) and act shocked when they get suspended.

People get mad when they get limited by PP. On the contrary, they are getting limited by breaking PayPal's TOS. In return, the users who get limited keep making additional accounts. All additional accts get closed. The user is back to complaining. Follow their TOS and you run into zero problems.

In this thread, the truth is being told.

Basically, it's like this:

Pretty much what the users above said but it's annoying because it's the top payment processor of today and using personal info for a payment processor where mostly kids who will dox a fly purchase from becomes a real privacy issue.

Paypal sometimes fucks people over. You just happened to not be one of them. This isn't just HackForums related, either. You can go on Reddit and in general people will hate Paypal. Once they fuck you over once, you're done. It might never come to you, but it will to someone else. It's a shitty service with way better alternatives to it at this point. Hell, you can see even Omni limited his acceptance of Paypal around here. It's just an overral bad service when you compare it to everything else that already exists.
Their only ground was that they were one of the first online payment processors, and all they got at this point is brand and a huge client base for being the first on the market.
I foresee them starting to only go downhill from now. As many other people do. Omni included, I believe.

I honestly don't see anything wrong with Paypal, if you follow their rules, you should be perfectly fine.

honestly paypal gets shit for people acting like pieces of shit. they are just a middle man. if someone disputes they have no idea what happend and just look at the proof

i also never had problems with paypal. They just charge enormous fees for sellers

Yeah, it doesn't suck. Using it for 2+ years no, never had a problem
Kids here violate their policy and then go on a rant against them complaining how shit the Payment processor is
If you don't use it legally by their terms you have no rights to complaint against them when they fuck you over.
