I'm sure it's a problem with PayPal and not you. They don't really have the whole sending money thing worked out.
Is it linked to a bank account, your Subway customer loyalty card or your library card?
Sent from the future.
when friends try to send me money,my paypal account will not allow it
when we called them they said it would allow it
we tried it afterwards and it didn't allow it
why i don't know

I sell high dollar items and tell my clients: A check is the best way and if you want to use a credit card, you have to pay the 3.5% fee Squareup charges me. I get it, I sell $5k+ pool tables to people all over the country and know the fees can be large. 99% of people just mail me a check...

And you sir, should be happy you an I have never done business. I'd have reported your account to PayPal. It's against PayPal's terms of service to force those charges back on your buyer. You cannot mandate a payment type, and you cannot recoup the fees. That is YOUR fee for using PayPal as a selling service.
It's amazing how many people bash a buyer for not covering a 3% fee, but not the seller when they don't want to eat THEIR OWN fee.

If the SELLER doesn't want to pay the fees, then they should "build" the fees into their selling price.
This ain't rocket science.
Don't get too hurt. F/family doesn't force payor to pay fees...there are no fees.
The "friends and family" thing only is free if you are paying from your bank account.
If you are using a credit/debit/gift card, the person sending the money is charged a fee.
But you can't use friends/family with credit card?
You can.
I just sent $400 and it cost me $11.xx on my card.
Please resend. I didn't get it.
Was your transaction total $411 or $400? The higher, I presume?

First, I have ZERO idea who you are and don't give a crap about doing business with you.
I'm nobody, honestly; and you and I will never do business - so we agree there.
Second, I don't use paypal.
Roger that.
Third, I can absolutely choose a payment type I choose to accept.
This thread is about PayPal, so that's where my comment was directed. If one uses PayPal (which you stated you do not), then one does not get to dictate the method by which someone else pays. It's against PayPal's terms of service.
Fourth, I prefer a check and like I said 99% of the people I deal with send me a check....
It's 2020, and about the only thing for which I use a check to pay is my local water bill. Preferring a check this day-in-age is silly.
You can try an jump in all you want. Using Friends and Family as means of doing business is bullshit.
I will. And, you and I agree on the last statement.
