Googlecheckout is a totally different setup than PP. It's much more for the online business than transactions person to person. There is really no other service quite like PP. It's a love and hate relationship (I have had friends lose literally thousands from locked accounts). Remember PP is NOT a bank and they don't have to abide by any of the rules that banks do. The best thing is to always pull your money out when you can, and be cautious.

One way to get around the whole tobacco issue is to get the PP Debit card. Since it's Visa regulated, they can't tell you what to spend it on. But yet, it uses your PP account balance.

No reason at all to let funds sit in there.

I am so sorry I caused this problem.

And yet, Cigars International accepts PooPail.

I was hoping they were finally opening their eyes to how much money they were losing. Guess not.

CI probably carries some kind of bond or contract with PP promising not to sell CC's.

Like I told you when we talked privately it is no big deal. Everything is handled now, I just wanted to make sure nobody else had to go through the same thing..
