Has this happened to you, personally? I've had this happen to me three or four times through the years and PayPal was always at least as liberal about it as any credit card I've had in the past.
I've only ever had two, but on a credit card. I do not have a PayPal account because I do not agree with their terms. PayPal might refund your money because they are nice. The credit card companies do it because of law. Niceness can change. The credit card companies are usually nice, since the law only requires them to refund money over $50.
I currently don't have/use any credit cards and PayPal is an excellent alternative for folks like me. I'd have to look it up, but their one-off credit cards are MasterCards and somehow I doubt they'd be able to use that licenses if they were in a position to tarnish MasterCard's good name.
Not necessarily. Visa "check cards" do not have most of the consumer protection. The guarantees are not because of someone's good name but because of laws specifically around credit. David -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
