Given all the horrible things they do, why do people still grant PayPal access to their money?
- jacquesm 16y agoSuitable alternative please? The only one that I have that will work in all these cases is Western Union and their fees are horrible.
- cool-RR 16y agoI think PayPal has become bad enough to justify taking the "suitable alternative" search to the next level. Like considering a change of career or company strategy.

- loewenskind 16y agoHorrible compared to just being robbed?
- jacquesm 16y agoGood point.
- viraptor 16y agoInternational payments. I cannot pay for my Romania-based vps in any other way really. My debit cards don't support 3D-secure, credit cards fail 50% of the time (already had problems with that), bank transfers are not supported. There's simply no alternative for me. Fortunately this and ebay are the only services that require me to use paypal anyways.
- sireat 16y agoCurious what would be the advantage in having a VPS in Romania? That is, unless you are developing something for Romanian market or have it setup as a convenience for Romanian developers you hired?
- viraptor 16y agoIt's cheap :) I'm using http://www.intovps.com/ http://www.intovps.com/ - they do have US sites too, but from UK I have lower ping to the RO datacenter. I'm quite happy with them and every time I had to contact their support, I've been satisfied with the response.
- jasonlotito 16y agoLack of any alternative. And before you post an alternative, make sure this alternative has the same feature set that makes PayPal useful. And it's not credit card processing.
