Attn U.S. Merchants

In case you don't check your PayPal e-mail account itself too frequently, they made an announcement about a policy update. You can read about it here.

To cut it short if you're not much of a reader:

As of May 15th, 2014, U.K. buyers will have an easier time charging you back because any transaction made with a U.K.-based buyer will fall under U.K. buyer protection. If you don't know how that works, you can look into its main page here and explore the links if you have a vested interest in them.

U.K. buyer protection is more lenient towards buyers than U.S. buyer protection is, so this is just a friendly heads up. Have a good one

 

Thanks for letting us know. I love it when they make our lives harder.

PayPal is one of the worst ways to trade, but it's too widely accepted to not use it. If only BTC was a bit more stable :/.

 

[Boatswain]

thats dumb

 

[Nick 91]

@XoXo - agreed

@ OP yeah, that's stupid, especially within RS trading since theres lots of people from UK!

PayPal doesn't give seller protection for digital goods anyway.
Same for every PayPal holder pretty much

If you buy Moneypak, and give the code to someone can they redeem code outside of US? and is it scammable?

I run a service where I redeem MP cards for a 5% fee. Haven't ever had an issue in $20k+ worth of cards.

Agreed. Never have had an issue with Moneypaks. A very good option for those who still need to dabble with Paypal.

Pretty sure you cant use MP outside of US/Canada. I know you can't here in Australia.

Interesting. Thanks for the info.

You can't use moneypaks directly on your account if you aren't from the US. But there are many reputable members who redeem them for a fee or sometimes free if you use me
