Paypal Credit

MrSilk

Hi All,

Does anyone else have a Paypal Credit account?, if so have you used to to purchase goods from eBay.

Their website states it can be used on eBay however I don't want to proceed to purchase something and find out Paypal Credit isn't an option, or can't find the option to purchase using Paypal Credit.

They have an ongoing offer at the moment where you spend £150 or more in one transaction and you have 4 months at 0% (usually 17.9%).

Hi, i think you must link your PP account with your Ebay account. Then at checkout you must select Paypal and if you have Paypal Credit account, then it will show as an option for paying.

Maybe I'll try it for a small purchase first to see if it shows up, thank you for your response!:)

You basically checkout using paypal and it auto links to the card

I have PayPal credit and when you go to purchase you can make sure that it's highlighted on your PayPal credit account instead of bank account or credit card before you confirm payment.

Only if they use paypal as a payment method.

Seems obvious now, but also I can't seem to find the answer to this:

If I pay a friend over £150, does that qualify for the 4 months interest free?

This text sounds like it doesn't but I'm really not clear:
Sending or receiving money between friends and family within the UK (in GBP) :Free when funded by the sender’s PayPal balance, bank account or debit card. If you use a credit card to send money, a fee of 3.4% + 20p applies.

You don't get the option using the send money function, so this would not work.

Slight warning. When you have used PayPal credit the first time, when you make future purchases from eBay, when you click to pay via PayPal it will default to PayPal credit rather than take payment direct from your card or PayPal balance. Fine if you have a 0% deal, but if you mistakenly use it and your account is interest bearing you will end up paying extra.
