Hi
The mystery shopping agencies require details of BACS or Paypal. Does anyone know which one may be better in terms of security for receipt of payment?

No material difference between them. Personally I would go with BACS as the Financial Ombudsman are much better at dealing with UK banks than PayPal and so easier recourse if something goes wrong but it is marginal differences0

BACS, for the reasons mentioned above, as well as the fact that I don't trust Paypal at all. They aren't secure, and are very difficult to deal with when you have problems. They also think that because they aren't UK based, that they don't have to comply with FCA (formerly FSA) guidelines.0

Hi Folks
Thank you for that. It has set my mind at rest.0 -
You don't usually get a choice, some mystery shopping jobs are paid by paypal and others by BACS.0

BACS would be better in terms of cheaper charges.0
