glass22 0 Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 Intrestingly. If you pay by Visa credit card through your paypal account, NOT the bank account option. You have protection on every purchase you ever make through that card. If you get ripped off etc, just ring your bank and have a charge back issued. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
