WARNING, PayPal does not protect customers of services.

Most PayPal users may not be aware but if you buy a Service (a repair for example), PayPal will not protect you against a non delivered service.

 

 

I bought a repair service (labor and parts) and the repair was not done, I am lucky that at least I got the items back but they were damaged by the repair service. Claims with evidence did not help as it is simply not protected according to PayPal.

 

 

Do you think that PayPal should give a warning when you buy a service?

Paypal gives you 'some' buyer and 'some' seller protection, that protection is not a 100% coverall so you have to read up on it and then risk assess your own transactions and who you trade with.
