no fees taken off with paypal?

[roxytoo]

Just had a payment of £200 via paypal come through..........with no fees taken off!

anyone else experienced this?

Someone has sent it as a personal payment from their Paypal balance.

Any hints on how to do that, Helen?

It's a new idea to me.

Or they have paid the fees instead. Log in to your account, and go to Send MOney. CLick the 'personal' tab at the bottom of the form. As long as you fund with your PP balance, or an instant transfer, no fees are payable by you and no fees by the recipient. Not sure I'd want to use it too often though for business payments. I have used it for an occasional deposit refund when it was more than 6 weeks. If fees are payable, you normally get the option to pay them or have the recipient pay them.

OK, thanks - I'll take a look.

That's useful to know! Thanks!

You can also send a payment as a gift and the sender can elect to pay the fees. Doing it that way also means the person sending the money (allegedly) can't reclaim it!!
