Paypal are cunts.
They charge you to receive money but get tonnes of interest on the probable millions sitting in there accounts before you request a withdrawal.

If, like they did with my brother, they decided something dodgy is going on they freeze your account. They the request loads of stupid details. You know those adverts they had saying "Parents send your poor student kids money with paypal!" Well my mum sent him money every month. Paypal then froze my brothers account with about £600 quid in it. They said to unfreeze it you have to send us proof of transactions. He told them that there were no transactions and that his dear mummy was sending him money each month. They basically told him tough shit and made him wait months before they sent him a cheque.
