Default Re: Merchant accounts & Banks

I have used PayPal for 4 years now and have a verified business account with them. Never (touch wood) had a serious problem. If I have any bugs/gripes they are:
1. The email invoices will still attempt covertly to sign the client up if they have started the sign up process before and given their email address then decided not to complete the process. They cannot pay your invoice until the sign up process has been completed. They should not have to do this as I am a business user
2. They do not like credit cards from Balkan countries, one payment took a month to clear!
3. They will not accept payment from a client if their kids have used their parents email address on eBay as their own address! i.e staying with Dad and Mom whilst on holiday then buying stuff from eBay. Surprisingly this has happened a couple of times to me.

Apart from that, whilst there are cheaper solutions, so many of my clients already have a paypal account anyway which makes life simple. Not one has requested world pay because they have a world pay account.

Not being a bank these days could be a plus!!!!
