(Finally).

Didn't see an official post about this and only a rep post on the forums so I thought I'd pass the info along.

Paypal is finally a payment option again, for anyone like me who has had obscene amounts of 401/601 errors. Seems like it's done through Global Collect, so hopefully no more shady stuff like C&B was in the past.

Only took them three and a half months >_>

Mind you, just adding paypal is a step to solution, but before they removed ultimatepay options, SE had refused my paypal payment due to its troublesome system.

Lets hope everything was fixed.

They did say on the official forum months ago that they're working on setting up paypal for payment.

But it's interesting that it took them this long to get it sorted.

SE Team is obviously a bunch of noobs in level 113~117 spark ***.

Prolly the best comparison is that they're a bunch of scrubs.

I dunno what kind of hoops an international cooperation has to jump through with Paypal, but I was in charge of setting it up for a local company that went to homes and did on site services around the house like handyman work and such. It was awesome until the first charge back, then they hit us with 7-14 day waits on all payments because "we weren't able to provide proof that the customer had received the charged services." Took upwards of 3 months of solid usage after that with no complaints or charge backs before we were able to get back to instant deposit. Can imagine they had to take some time to work out terms and such to avoid situations like that. 3ish months for a no name company I get, but for a larger, international, traded company, it seems a bit extreme.

Not related to SE but in regards to the example.

A signed off completion of work added to the bottom of work orders should be sufficient. Just one line and a spot for a signature.

Paypal in general can be a big itch both on payment and being paid. They tend to work on a authorized debit first basis, which requires by laws/regs much more hoops than credit transactions.

Killer timing on this for me. This past billing period I was getting spammed with 401,601 on my credit card.

Tried my credit card today still wouldn't work after working no problem for the last 6 months, but paypal worked no problem!

A reloadable card like the Walmart or money network card can be used as it is attached to a bank.
