most safe and secure way of sending money over the internet

EDIT: didnt see the first bit lol
when someone sends you moeny it comes into your paypal account but you have to 'accept' payment
then it can either stay there until u wanna use it to buy something, or you can take it directly out ur bank account if you have it assigned to it

hoped that helped, i think thats how it works lol

ive used it for years, i dont really like paypal as their customer service is TERRIBLE and their fees are getting stupid. You better prey no-one pays you by a paypal 'e-cheque' as you wont see your money for about 28 days and you get 3 lots of fees to transfer!!

Its simple to use, you setup a paypal account, some1 on ebay buys something off you, sends fund to your email address you signed upto paypal with and its added to your paypal balance. You then transfer money to bank account or 'withdraw funds' and then wait 4 - 10 working days before you get the £ in the bank.

Customer service & fees are biggest let down.

ive used paypal for about 2 years now.

its diffinatly safe and if you have any problems they do get down the bottom of it and its sorted.
