For the past couple of months I have been getting paid through paypal and when paid by bank account there has been no fees. It is a kids booster club and we have been collecting monthly payments from same people. Today the same payments came through and there were fees assessed by paypal. I don't understand why a fee would all of sudden by assessed on the same payments that has been happening for a couple months without fees.

Its down to how the payment was SENT to your account.
1. If they sent using money > goods / services option then paypal would see you as a seller and apply the new seller hold. They would also charge you a fee.
2. If they had sent using the send money > family / friends option then you would have had the payment instantly with no fee. (However that option is not available in every country).
