    First time user

    After almost 3 years of stay here, I decided to apply for a debit card. Got my card yesterday and signed up with paypal. I can book my flight online

    Bit confuse with paypal it said my account is zero Still coping with this. Need to read more about this.

    Any tips and advise? Do I need to put money in my own account so I can pay thru paypal?

    i think those who know better than me (scouser keith ) would agree, try not to pay for anything with pay pal of value,,, any problems and you might have trouble getting your money back ..

    i think you should always buy any thing expensive using a credit card, you have a lot more protection than pay pal

    Not if you use Paypal and pay direct through it with your credit card, as if PP don't repay for any problems, the CC will.

    Why would you want to book a flight with PP anyway, they charge about 3%-4%

    I think about credit card application but never want to be in debt So Debit card is better for me, I cannot buy without money in my account.

    I think I better pay thru debit card than paypal?

    Thanks Joe

    If your account balance is zero, when you pay you have to change the payment option to Debit/Credit card. The option should be on the page while you are trying to pay near the top.

    Will try that when I came back from roaming outside the countryside . If I can't do it, will surely use debit card . Is that possible?

    Paypal lets you pay direct with a DC.
