Is Nochex safe?

This isn't eBay but thought someone might be able to help. I have ordered some flowers from Value Flora through Quidco & have an email confirmation to say thanks for your Nochex payment. I paid with my Switch card. If I had have known it would go through Nochex I would have paid with Paypal (it had that option) as it's the same card that's linked to Paypal.

Please someone reassure me

    I haven't had any problems using Nochex. They don't have the chargeback protection that PayPal has but as long as the company you are buying from is reputable you should be fine.

  • I've used nochex for over three years as both a buyer & seller. Never had any problems with them & there are a lot less scare stories than those about paypal.
    Coming soon....

    nochex are excellent for sellers, i've used them for years, however, no-one uses them :-(, maybe once every couple of months someone pays me with it
    money saving my @rse.
    I've spent 10x as much as I would if I had never discovered this website :-)

    My Website usues Nochex for all its card payments, no one has ever had any problems paying this way through my site, its pretty much the same as Paypal but less well known as ebay push paypal heavily.

    I have paid via Nochex. No problems at all. Great thing is, you don't have to sign up for a Nochex account if the amount to pay is less than £100. You can just pay it with no hassle or questions asked.

    The reason why ppl dont use nochex is simply because they arent used to using it and have relied on paypal. Its hard to know where to click inorder to pay someone if your new to nochex. They could do with making ther website more user friendly and more geared towards ebay users.

    Its not 100% safe if your a buyer but it doesnt matter so long as your buying from somone you trust.
