adding funds to paypal

[wickedDUDE]

is there anyway to add funds to paypal by credit card anymore?

You have to send the funds to someone else then have them send it back to you

 

[wickedDUDE]

that's crazy.. why did they take that option away? not everyone wants to hook their bank account to their paypal

I think the credit card companies would have complained. Sending yourself money via credit card is considered a cash advance and some people would have been shocked by the higher interest rates from their card company for those transactions.

yeah i think it is around 3-5 % of the amount of cash advance.
but when the paypal dont have enuff fund, it will charge the credit card
straight away rite?is that also considered cash advance?

You could set up an account that you use just for PayPal. If you don't want money taken out of the account, don't use PayPal when you have no money in the PayPal account.
