PPG as it used to be referred to made sense. If you had your bank account linked or balance in your account then there were no fees. But if you just had your credit card links you had to state who was going to pay the fees, sender or receiver.
I only have my credit card linked so I have always refused to use PPG - instead I have paid normal PayPal but slightly more so that when fees are removed the seller gets the amount agreed, and I get the protection.
But recently I have done a few transactions where it just asks me for £3 and the seller gets £3.
I don’t get that, there are credit card fees so is PayPal losing money.
I know the recipient gets the £3 and it says I sent £3 but I wonder if it secretly charges my credit card more.
Just about to make another payment so I would like to know. I don’t mind paying fees but not on PPG because you don’t get anything for them.
Cheers,
Nigel
