    Default PayPal Here

    So (apart from the shocking 2.7% fee) what do we think of PayPal Here?

    Perfect for taking deposits there and then at client meetings and any other time someone says "can I book you for ..." ?

    With the device being provided for free and no subscription costs - just the 2.7% usage fee - is it something you'll snap up?

    As there's no subscription costs this would probably be ideal for me. However, I tried to sign up via the page you linked to and it wouldn't accept my mobile number. It seems as if it's setup to just accept US customers maybe?

    Edit: tried it again without the '0' at the start and it accepted the number.

    Do you take booking payments etc. at fayres?

    Just asking as I hate selling to people at those events. i would rather them go home and think about it.
    i would never commit to something on the day as a groom unless I was really 100%.

    I wouls also rather know the details of the wedding as a supplier as you never know.

    I always take a contact and let them think about it - but then again I am not cheap.
    Just rather meet them again on their own time at the venue when I can give them 100% attention.

    I still use internet transfer and have no issues. Used paypal for a year and knocked up a £1200 charge
    God knows what that would be now - probably £3000 ?? Just done the maths and its pushing 10k

    You think 2.5% is not much but trust me it will soon add up.
