**PayPal is the best, without a doubt!** I always use it and completely trust it for all my transactions. The company is amazing and has helped me multiple times to get my money back from scammers and unreliable websites. Their customer service is excellent, responsive, and genuinely cares about protecting users' rights. If you're looking for a safe and easy-to-use app for transferring money or online purchases, PayPal is the perfect choice. I highly recommend downloading and trying it!

It's automatically without my permission chose to make a payment from an account that I didn't tell them to use. It even didn't give me an option to choose which account or card I wanted to pay from. I simply click on pay now thinking that I would be able to now choose the payment method in the next upcoming screen. But no! That costed me overdraft and merchant penalty.

I've used paypal for years to transfer money into my bank and family/friend transfers. This recent update may make PayPal deactivate any linked bank accounts. You can't relink them on your own, even with routing/acct numbers, you have to call PayPal customer service and tell them you'd like to relink or reactivate your previously linked bank account. My bank confirmed they did no such thing, when i called paypal they said they deactivated it for my funds security, just without notice. Beware.
