I have used Paypal for five years with no problems.......paying for items cost's you nothing in fees.

Re: post offices

You have to have a current account to operate a Paypal account.
I suppose if he had such an account he would have sent a cheque

Are you sure you do?
Can you not use a pre pay credit card with Paypal?

Re: post offices

You can pay for something through paypal using a debit card or credit without needing a paypal account of your own. As from 9th July they are also going to start charging.

I did that for a time but had to have a current account first and then have the current account as a 'secondary' to the credit card after I added it
