Paypal advice

[Boddie]

I have a friend who wants to pay me £450 by using his credit card.

Anyone know how much this will cost me if I was to suggest he paid my Paypal account.

I seem to remember it costs me to transfaer the funds to my account but does the transaction cost too?

Also, can anyone suggest an alternative way?

Thanks

Andrew

I believe it's 3.4% plus £0.20p. That would be £15.50 total. There's no charge to withdraw the money to your bank account, provided it's over £50.

At least that what it says if you arrange for payment from a credit card to your account, and they only allow two transactions a year for some reason.

What about a credit card cheque?

Couldn't you sell him something on e-bay ......

come to that why doesnt he just get the moola out of a hole in the wall using his credit card and just give you folding

[Boddie]

Because he would have to pay exhorbitant interest and wants to just make the purchase then balance transfer

Depending on who is obliged to whom, if you expect £450 and he wants to use a credit card, he should be prepared to cover the cost.
