I don't ever remember getting a specific warning that I couldn't link my online credit card to my account, a system that worked great. I will never link a bank account to anything, that's just a recipe for disaster, and I thought this moneypak thing was bs, now I know its non-working bs! What galls me even further is the mastercard application -- I thought (naively) that this could be linked since it is Paypal mastercard -- what was I thinking? This is one stupid-**bleep** business decision under the guise of consumer protection, a scam to get that $5 -- I have not heard one post in praise of this change, just a lot of complaints and people looking for other money transfer services. They have really 'New Coke'd this up, I just don't understand the logic. I thought companies asked their customers what they want; well, successful ones do.......I guess I'm done buying on Ebay and I can only use merchants that'll take my cards directly because Paypal has really **bleep**ed me up and I will not accede to their gouging/lack of common sense.
