I take online surveys, and one of the surveys that I take uses PayPal to issue its payments. I do not wish to do business with PayPal, as I am not comfortable with giving out my banking information to them. I did receive a payment from them in the past, which they sent to my home address rather than having it deposited in my account through their company.
I put in a request for a cash reward from the survey site that I use, and they issued it through PayPal. I received an email that it had been issued. I then received an email from PayPal saying that I had not set up an account and the check would be sent back to them. I sent them two emails. In the first, on Aug 6th, I asked them to send the check to my home as they had done before, and I have not heard anything from them. I sent another email today, Oct 19th, asking them to send the check to my home (I enclosed my name and address in the event that they had lost it), and I will wait to see if I get a response. I do not think I will hold my breath waiting to hear from them. I just wanted to let others know to beware of sites using PayPal.
