If you "DOUBLE CLICK" the submit button you WILL be charged twice!!!! If you are ignorant of the proper way to use PayPal, please read ALL instructions before (saying PayPal sucks) submitting your request to them. I have a credit card that I use only on the internet and it has a max of $200.00, (for those who won't use paypal). You could open another checking account only for PayPal, placing only the amount of money in, as it should be spent. I do keep some funds in my PayPal account because of the amount of E-Bay business I do and I get 1.03% which is better than the banks and credit unions I deal with. I have used PayPal for 4 years and never had any problems. Also my checking account will not allow any kind of charges, of the same amount, to the same person, in the same month. At no cost to me. (Automatic payments from my insurance, and electric companys have twice double billed me but the bank would not pay. And my service was never interupted.)
