To all members tell Pay Pay to Keep our Plug-In

After September 22nd the PayPal Plugin will no longer function!


Why? PayPal says to better serve us!

 

I love the way companies will take away something you love, and say it is to better SERVE! You!

 

I call BS

 

If you do not know what the PayPal Plugin was, it was a way to:

Auto Fill address in forms (which I used Constantly)


But the most important is to Generate Random Credit Card Numbers for a secure Transaction!

 

This was So AWESOME I could shop online secure and knowing that even if the place I bought the Item got hacked, I could delete the Credit card I generated and have no worries.

 

With out the CC Generator, if I see a unauthorized bill, I have to report it and go throw all the time wasting steps to clear the fact that I didn't buy it.

 

How is removing this feature HELPING US?

 

Please PayPal Do not take away are Plug-In

 

Respond to this thread and write to paypal

We need to keep this to keep us SAFE!

Sheesh - get a grip.

 

Go get the Paypal debit crd - works like a debit and a credit card.

 

Runs circles around the plug-in.

Not a RANDOM Generated Credit Card..

 

If you don't know what you are talking about, you really shouldn't post...

I see no difference between a random-generated number and a regular one.

 

Move with the times - paypal's not going to change their minds.

If you don't know the difference between a random generated Credit card and a static one, I am not going to be able to tell you, Again If you don't know what you are talking about, it is best not to post at all...

The Auto-generated Card was awesome! It was the main reason I used the Plug-in. The auto-fill address is ok too. I have another CC that offers the same thing, but I have to pay them every month. PPPlug-in took $$ directly from my PP account balance OR my linked bank account. But I guess I'm preaching to the choir. Who can we write to that will actually care??

 

BTW, my PP auto-card would not work today - wouldn't let me log in... maybe they have already started to disable itSmiley Sad

Wow you are right I can't get into it either It says bad password.

 

I agree this is an awesome feature that we need.

 

What next take away the Random Generator Second authentication key? 😞

 

Disabling this is not a thing to "Better" serve us.. 😞

I don't know I wrote to support asking them to PLEASE don't disable it?

 

Who knows? All I know is this **bleep** I loved my Random Generated CC  Espeically on Sites I wasn't sure of exactly...

 

My guess is that Paypal wants VENDORS to use Paypal in their website directly.

(But for Repeating Subscriptions the Random one is Great, because if you have issues you just cancel the temp CC instead of Canceling your WHOLE card and waiting for a new one...

I agree - it is perfect!

 

I can't seem to get through to support today. I think they have left the phone off the hook....
