OMG moment, followed by regret and shame -- for I should have known to avoid using PayPal pre-paid cards! Last week in March I added $20 to their Mastercard. Total cost was $23.95 to load on the $20. (I don't trust the public WiFi in my building, so i'll only use a low risk card to purchase online) Anyway, after loading $20 onto the card, immediately PayPal took $5 for processing (CVS took $3.95 for loading). I (DOH!) delayed in making the online purchase I'd intended, just being lazy. But three days later, on the first of April, PayPal took another $5. SO -- my $23.95 spent one week ago is now worth $10. I basically gave away $13.95 over 4 days of processing fees... Bottom line - avoid using PayPal's Prepaid MasterCard, unless you've got money to throw away, and who does these days?
