Hate paypal
Epassporte is so fucking good
paying all shopping with the plastic card:thumbsup

Juliaa 05-15-2004 05:28 AM

epassporte rocks...paypal sucks (who can expect they will start to closing accounts with any adult transactions)

hova 05-15-2004 05:32 AM

I just empty my paypal every day

hydro 05-15-2004 05:33 AM

im suprised that after all this time paypal has yet to close my account. I guess it helps if you have everything verified + paypal debit card + paypal credit card

Tania 05-15-2004 05:37 AM

bastards i hate'm fuckers :BangBang: :ak47:

Juliaa 05-15-2004 06:08 AM

As you are likely aware, PayPal has been closing accounts for affiliate programs that pay adult webmasters via PayPal recently, even if the account is only used to pay webmasters, and not to process adult transactions. Assholes pussies cocksuckers!! :321GFY

cool1 05-15-2004 06:11 AM

I have been waiting for the Paypal axe to fall on me but so far so good.
Of course I never leave any moneys in Paypal

JFK 05-15-2004 06:28 AM

Stillblack 05-15-2004 06:34 AM

what about ikobo I use them to pay my out of the country people but I would not trust then with more that a couple of hunderd dollars because I can get any one on the phone.

scoreman 05-15-2004 06:46 AM

DH, isnt the bill actually higher because of the recurring lost?

J.R. 05-15-2004 07:39 AM

yeah, that's stupid.. it's not like people are buying porn through paypal.

stev0 05-15-2004 08:56 AM

btw, is it just me or is epassport down?

--edit --

Nevermind... forgot the e at the end of epassporte.com

FreeHugeMovies 05-15-2004 10:05 AM

Don't they hold onto your money for a long time before giving it back?

No, their policy is to send it to you after a 180 day hold (assuming no fraud...) so get in touch with them about that.

doober 05-15-2004 10:16 AM

180 days seems long to me

:2 cents:

lazzlo 05-15-2004 10:20 AM

Still waiting to get mine closed. I don't have a porn address or pay peeps with porn addys.
Question, I wonder if they found someone, say for example a TGP that takes paid spots thru Paypal, if they close the TGP account, will they close all Paypal accounts that has transferred money to to that TGP?

Which is the daft thing about it. It's not actually against their terms to do so but doesn't stop them closing accounts for no real justification. These days it just takes someone with an e-mail addy connected to an adult domain to send/receive money to/from you and you're fucked.

Amazes me that paypal get away with a lot of the crap they do (and they do pull some VERY dodgy shit) yet are still so big. Part of the problem I suppose is that for many there still isn;t a good alternative. Epassporte for example is very limited in many areas if you want to do stuff other than just move money around to other epassporte account holders.

I'm just suprised it took so long for them to shut us down. Good thing my epassporte account and backup paypal accounts are still rocking :)

DH

I dont understand people that let money sit in these things. In the old I had a boss that would call it slapping the check, as soon as the checks came in theey went to the bank. With paypal I do the same thing as soon as the money hits the account its transfered. I only keep $20 in there any thing over that is transfer the minute it come in.

yeah im interested in that question also. Because some people might also use paypal to buy stuff off eBay

graphicsbytia 05-15-2004 10:43 AM

I was told by paypal that they can shut you down if there's a link on your site that goes to a site that breaks their terms of use..

they're desparate

pradaboy 05-15-2004 11:04 AM

I keep getting mails from sponsors that switch from PayPal to Epassporte coz they got shut down... why isn't any sponsor using moneybookers yet? They have a pretty solid system in place.

I've used them for a lot of transactions in the past and they always came thru... even phone support is incredible.

Because is a big fucking difference between Epassporte and Moneybookers. With Epass you can withdraw your funds instant from ATM without having to wait for wire transfer.

I had my paypal frozen too, and it was because of one place that paid for posts. I never asked or signed up to be paid they just sent it on their own. They got shut down.. then I did..

I figure it was traced from them to me , because there were no other infringments on my part.


i dunno about that
I used to allow other webmasters to use my paypal ccount for above said board - and my account never got closed.
sure you're site doesnt accidently link to adult?
you do run design site

webgurl 05-15-2004 12:46 PM

Hey DrinkingHard!

They froze our account with ~5k in it (yes, only time I left more than 100bucks in there) aswell. After 6 months of waiting BBB fixed the issue in 3 days!:thumbsup

tranza 05-15-2004 01:23 PM

I'll be a happy man the day I consider $8k not a big deal...
