You can now receive paypal payments without any fees

Are you sure you did not pay via credit card? It was showing up as a fee for me when I was paying via credit card, but once I switched to having the money removed directly from my checking account the fee was removed.

Just to let everyone know...if its over a certain amount of money that you send in this fashion...you will be hit with a fee.I got hit with a fee for sending like this to a board member.The amount was for $100 and the fee came out to like $3.20.Just figured I'd let people know this.

Yea, you can't avoid the fee if you use a credit card so i just send all my money the original way in the case of a needed chargeback

Right.I did use a credit card.Of course I am not sure if you get hit with a fee for using any sort of payment method if the actual payment amount is over a certain amount.I have yet to try that theory.

See the OP. This only applies to payments funded by a bank account or paypal balance. There is no limit on the amount of the payment as far as I know. I've received payments in excess of $500 and haven't had any problem.

It seems like they view using a credit card as a form of payment as some kind of cash advance. Like when you go to the casinos. If you use your debit card, the only charge you the atm fee. However, if you use your credit card to withdraw cash, they charge a fee based on how much you are taking out.
