Hubby didn't want me to link our bank account to paypal, so I bought a Wmart money card. It works fine, the problem is the fees. Holy moly, the fees! $3 for this and $3 for that. I bought some things from Amazon and thought all was well. Then today, $1 came out and I don't know what for. When I looked at the Wmart site, it takes 10 days for any complaint to start.
So, what's the best and cheapest way to do online shopping?? I buy mainly from Amazon and Wmart if that helps.

Talked to the bank and am going to do a no-fee checking account with a debit card. That's what the ladies who work at the bank do, too. Just enough in it to cover my shopping and I can move money in as I need it.
Anna, thanks for info on Chase. We just got out of Chase a little over a year ago and went to our current bank. Thanks anyway for your response!! :-)

Just based on customer service alone and great fraud protection with the Chase bank, I'd say go with Amazon/Amazon credit card.
I've been a member sinmce 2006.
Had 2 fraud alerts 3 moths ago when someone hacked into my account from a local gas station and made 2 charges. The fraudualnt charges were caught that same day , tele calls made to my home . I thought they were just tele marketers bothering me and I didn't bother to call back. Chase was right on. Even when I ignored the calls and then made follow up calls a month later when the statement came through, Chase made right- no problems. |

I think that's what I'm going to need to do. I was thinking of starting another account with the bank strictly for online shopping. Only have enough in the account to cover my shopping.
Thanks!

I use Paypal too and have never had a problem. It's the best option out there that I've come across.

I too have had my bank account linked with my Paypal account, and in over 10 years have never had a problem (and I used to sell 5-7,000 a week on Ebay). |

I've had my Paypal linked with my bank account for nearly 10 years & have never had a problem-I would talk to him about doing that-those $3.00 fees are awful!
