What's REALLY up with Paypal?? keep getting signups... - GoFuckYourself.com

I thought PayPal didn't do subscriptions for adult sites anymore unless you paid $1500 or something?

I have a site that uses paypal, and it keeps getting signups, the account isn't frozen and they haven't said squat to me.

Anyone figure them out yet? They seem very inconsistent.

Got to keep in mind they have millions of accounts and the time factor to keep up with all that I'm sure is quite a daunting task.

From what I have seen mostly cheaters have issues with paypal and processing.... I could be wrong, but I have yet to see an honest person get screwed.

High chargebacks or stolen content will cause paypal to freeze your account... I have no clue about those who run an honest biz and claim to have been charged. I personally do not know anyone who has had that happen.

My guess is if anyone has been legitimately charged visa/mc fees by paypal its because they are probably high risk somehow, due to questionable business and their record with paypal. Large volume perhaps.

Interesting. The site is legit, our content. Never any paypal chargebacks. I just pulled all my cash out of it just in case, although I have never had issues with paypal. Maybe it is because of my honesty and integrity.

Same here, but if they try charging me, I am dropping the Paypal option to join.

Me too, or put paypal on a mainstream site and funnel the signups through it.

I am emptying my adult account daily now...just in case the hammer falls.

Make sure to do an auto-sweep of your paypal funds to your bank account, then transfer the funds out of the bank account to another (even at the same bank).

Good idea, thanks. I have heard paypal can withdraw from bank accounts of their customers.
