Question about RP LIVE payment method

I chose Paypal to be the broadest possible single solution. But they are expensive on my side. I'm looking at alternatives, but I need to know your opinion.

How important is Paypal in your decision to buy an RP LIVE ticket? Would direct credit card transactions be better or worse?

I'd be happy with a direct credit card charge.

Re: Question about RP LIVE payment method

This is my rant...

I detest paypal! I detest the fact that they are not a bank and because of that some credit card companies have learned the hard way how difficult they are to deal with. I detest the fact that their complaint resolution methods do not work. I detest the fact that they can access your accounts whether you want them to or not and that getting your money back from them is a nightmare. I have had friends who have had their accounts frozen by paypal and have lost money because of paypal's bad business ethics. I detest the fact that I had to set up an account with them and despite numerous attempts at getting them to stop sending me spam, they still do.

Should I go on????

Janet

I think these issues, in a minority of cases, are valid, but they don't really hold any water when dealing with Doug.

My take on it is paypal makes it easy, I would imagine direct CC would effect sales both from the simplicity of papal payments and also new members might feel uncomfortable !

But you could try both on a trial basis and see how is works for you Doug. I for one am use to paying with paypal and find it easier than looking for a credit card each time..
I appreciate some sites can retain your details but I don't like that idea one bit.

So its paypal, as the best option available at the moment for me..

Re: Question about RP LIVE payment method

yes, Doug, it's paypal. I always keep a little "playmoney" on that account, because I don't really like submitting credit card information via net.

Re: Question about RP LIVE payment method

I don't trust paypal, but I use the credit card option rather than logging in to my paypal account (that I started before I heard the bad stuff about them). So either is workable for me.
