I realize that the debit card has a fee BUT, it definiatly outweighs Western Union's fee AND the high interest your credit card gives you for the cash advance.

The question I suppose I have is; WHY the fuck isn't Western Union and Visa screaming at PayPal? Not that I don't love the service, I think my hate for the formal PayPal company and Ebay outweigh my love for the convenience it provides.

Imagine if Visa told PayPal that all charges were going to be treated as cash advances, I think PayPal would be bye bye because they wouldn't survive on checking account deposits alone.
hahahaha...
Western Union is EVERYWHERE! that's why they're so big.
Paypal works only in 35 countries or so.
how can WU "scream" at paypal? dumb
