Cancel and resign up or call them and ask them to change your account to be a regular one...

I just signed up fpr another account with another email and cc number. So I can use the premier account to accept cc on my website and the second personal account to receive money direct from paypal users without a fee.

I guess that means ccbill, ibill etc take their 10-15% for doing nothing too. :D

Don't forget that PayPal is out to make money, if they charged you 0% or just the merchant fee they pay then they'd be losing it...

FWIW, I just use PayPal to receive money. If there's any more than about $50 in my PayPal account then I get it out ASAP!

Excellent idea. I got the premier account for the debit card and to accept cc's, but I hate the 3.8% fee for receiving funds. I've been offsetting the fee by using the debit card which pays 1.5% cash back on all purchases, but still hate paying a fee just to receive funds from family and friends. Guess I'll get free account with a different cc and hope it doesn't violate any of their terms.

Is it possible to get a check from paypal? I have now try 3 time redraw money from my paypal, but they say:

Invalid Bank Account Infomation

And so it cost me $5. I have call my bank and ask them, and they say that i have done my part right. :mad:

Anyone?

If your bank don't work like others they are probably too lazy to do it

PayPal's exchange rate always lags the bank exchange rate for me, in their favour. It's a bit of a kick in the teeth considering that they already charge me a $1.50 withdrawal fee as well as the 'hidden' fee from the exchange rate difference. One or the other is fine, but not both...

Cheers.
