I'm shocked to come accross this post from Upbux's Admin-----they have decided to boycott paypal from their site and he was asking all the members to go for an refund as 85% of the money is in their limited Admin's paypal account---so all those who upgraded using paypal can claim a refund.
I heard a lot about some sites which promote badly against paypal but never believed them coz I had an good impression on paypal (still i do)---but we cannot deny the facts either---there are many(affiliates mostly) whose accounts were limited without any specific reason---
What do you think about the latest happenings with Upbux?????
Here is the link of the Admin post

They were in favour of paypal---until yesterday---he came to know that he would never get his limited account back(no matter how many calls we make) so came with a anti-paypal post---it does give him a back door to escape silently---coz everyone would be thinking of Paypal as the main culprit.great day.
I just cannot believe someone can get away with this. Do you think me and you should go and pay a personal visit?
I think that will make me feel better. TATA.
I agree with you my dear BB, but let us try to mind our manners. We do not want others to know that we can be rude as well. TATA.

hi Winky,they have been harsh on those who have business accounts---and those who involve in fishy kinda sites and hyips.i think paypal is neither good nor bad---they dont get big amounts if they limit our accounts though lol.they do not create troubles for Personal accounts they're quiet safe.great day.

so upset again with what I have read as I opened Upbox today, just last week a lot of mylotters said and suggested Upbux for it is legitimate.
Im still new with the site is very deligent to reach the payout amount.
And now, Im confused also of who is the scammer...???
I still have no experience with paypal yet for I am still new in this online job.
I can tell if its paypal who is the scammer of the upbux..
Hopefully the issue will resolve soon and the members will be paid from
what they have been working..
Thanks and happy mylotting everyone..

Hi sunnycool, I'm also shocked! I don't know what to beleive about paypal because its like number one everyone uses.
But I guess thats why they can do what they did to upbux and I'm not sure upbux can do something about it. I hope this situation gets solved, 'cause I'll be sad to loose upbux.
Well have a nice day, Libna.

hi Libna,As upbux has decided to boycott it---they would be running the site(i dont think it would loose their members trust) with other payment processors like Neteller and ALertpay is always there and some other new options---but the main thing is--- Can golden members get their refund from paypal?
we gotto wait for a while and see if they get a refund or not.
great day.

I think it's likely related to profits. Paypal makes their money on the processing fees and think about the thousands of Upbux, Neobux etc sites that they are processing payments of under $5 to. It seems rather strange tho since Paypal has made their reputation on being the best site to send or receive money.
The other factor might somehow be related to Fraud. Paypal has lots of measures in place to be sure that payments they process are valid to limit any liablity to themselves.
Overall I have liked Paypal but I also know that eBay owns them and word on the web is the eBay is struggling right now. Partly due to the bad economy. And all the changes that they have made to their site and it's rules lately.
