I went to check my account in paypal and I noticed there was a payment there. It was a bonus of $1.50 given by paypal. I never saw anyone receiving a bonus from paypal. But the fact is that I received it and I have more money there. Have you already received a bonus from paypal? Do you have any idea why they sent it?

That's very weird. I've been a member there since 1999 and the only bonus I received was $5.00 when I first signed up. After that, interest payments on my balance are paid . . . but no bonuses outside that. This is interesting. There's no specific detials in the description?

No, at first I even thought it was a fake email but it wasn't. You can see the images : http://www.shareapic.net/content.php?id=256731&owner=bedgirl and http://www.shareapic.net/content.php?id=2567323&owner=bedgirl I'm not really going to complain lol If they want to send me more bonus they are free to do it but I found it strange.

I don't think it's a bonus. Do you remember when you used your credit card or debit card to get your paypal account verified, paypal charge about $1.50 from your credit card, so when your first time spend the money in your paypal account, they will pay you back this $1.50 dollars.

No, i have not received a single bonus from paypal so far, but i have received many mails from paypal claiming that I have referred them a premier business member and that I will receive $1 as soon as they receive $200 to their account, but still i have not received any, I don't know whether it is because they did not reach that amount or not, only time will tell.

Up till now I've never received any bonus from paypal...but I would like...Why don't you write them asking about your bonus, it's the only way to know why they gave you $1.50.

Well, I could write them but then they could discover it was an error and they would take it from me lol I just found it strange but I'm not worried about it, I won't complaint if they give me more money.

I have never recieved any bonus from my paypal accoutn. Moreover mine is an unverified account. That may also be the reason for not recieving the bonus. Moreover, I have never heard that paypal pays any bonus. Also, when I was browsing through the paypal website, I could see that they do not pay any interests if you keep your money there....

If you have enrolled into the money market account with them then you get a percentage at the end of the month for the average daily balance in your account. Much like a savings account.
