PAYPAL gripe

Again another company that ASSUMES one owns a mobile phone.

They have changed their log in system asking for one, well I don't own one. Spent half an hour with some foreign moron trying to get him to understand.

Trying to get someone who speaks plain English in an English voice !!!!!!!! impossible

What is it that companies are so thick trying to say YOU DON'T HAVE ONE .

Of course you have a mobile RS, everybody has, you've obviously just forgotten where you put it...

Re: PAYPAL gripe

I'm finding that too with a lot of the Sites I like to visit. Some I've had to leave as I don't see why they need your number and I refuse to give it to them. Paypal I will give it to if they ask as I need that site to pay for my Ebay things.

Re: PAYPAL gripe

Call me old fashioned ....

I've never used Paypal, I've never used Ebay. I buy things over the internet using debit card. I thought Paypal was primarily (not solely) a payment method for people with no bank account.

Re: PAYPAL gripe

The OTP (One Time Password) is an excellent additional security measure. Most, if not all on-line banks/shopping sites have adopted, or will be adopting the system.

Buy yourself a mobile phone with a PAYG SIM, they're cheap enough. You don't need an all singing, all dancing model, just one capable of receiving text messages.

Re: PAYPAL gripe

I don't have a mobile phone, it's something more to carry around, I spend too much time on the pc whilst at home I want to be free from tweeting and stuff whilst out and about.

Ms d00d carries a mobile, takes my calls/texts. It's not a smart phone so no 'net, no buying stuff.
