I'm about to join PayPal, and I'm wondering if I should. I've herd a few pro's, and a lot of con's. Please post your expirence, or others that are like PayPal (free). Thanx!

P.S. If this is not the right place to post, please move it then.

the programming discussion is probably not the best place to have a discussion on the relative pro's and cons of paypal..

having said that, ive heard a few horror stories (people having their cash stolen etc)

i think basically the best thing to do is not leave your money in the account there

Yes, this likely is not the right forum for this topic. I'm sure the mods will move it when they see it.

I've had Paypal as a secondary form of payment on a few of my sites for the last year or so. Absolutely no problems. I think you hear a lot of yammering from disgruntled people who have had their accounts frozen, but likely because they have not followed TOS. Take the time to read their TOS and follow their rules. Simple. You won't have any problems.
