vealchop Posted April 17, 2015 Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 Now that MoneyPak seems to be no longer available, are there any other options to replenish a Paypal account via prepaid cards? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vealchop Posted April 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 I just spoke to a Paypal rep and he said the Paypal Cash card you can buy at local drug stores can be transferred to your Paypal account. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KB Posted April 17, 2015 Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 Whoa so you mean to tell me the only prepaid card Paypal will accept is the one that they collect the fees on? Go figure.... Ken 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panerai153 Posted April 18, 2015 Report Share Posted April 18, 2015 Ken,You know they are going to squeeze you every way they can. One problem to me is thus far they really don't have any viable competition. Others have tried, but it seems like everyone else has fallen by the wayside. If there were legitimate competition, possibly they would develop some flexibility, but since there isn't they ain't!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lacuadra Posted April 23, 2015 Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 I buy the paypal card ( www.paypal.com/cash to load) using any CC at the self check out at CVS. Just a daily limit of 500.00 and monthly of 4000.00 (?) Plenty of cards here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lacuadra Posted April 23, 2015 Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 Whoa so you mean to tell me the only prepaid card Paypal will accept is the one that they collect the fees on? Go figure.... Ken I buy with an airline CC. Thus I redeem for air/hotel miles which minimizes the fee. When I buy ,I buy $500.00 ( more into bags and stuff, this is a new area for me). 500 miles for 3.95 is way less than 1c per mile , that basically swallows the fee.

chronoluvvv Posted April 23, 2015 Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 someone told me that PayPal is one of the biggest banks there is now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KB Posted April 23, 2015 Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 Arthur I think that Paypal and their parent company (eBay) simply buy any competition. And no PP is not one of the biggest banks, we should not allow them such a prestigious title, they would however be the biggest money handlers. Unfortunately not being a bank allows them to set their own rules. Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beachcomber Posted April 23, 2015 Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 PP and eBay are splitting shortly, I just received this email today (Spanish) but it basically says they will be changing their privacy policy due to their split from eBay.

chronoluvvv Posted April 24, 2015 Report Share Posted April 24, 2015 not to get into an argument here but if i remember right PayPal earns on fees and pays on funds (until transferred) with a cheapness usually matched by the big 5 (BankAm, Chase, WellsFargo, USBank & Wells Fargo) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
