A Plug for PayPalCredit

I like to take advantage of sales and promotions. Last spring, PayPalCredit - not PayPal - had a deal where you would get seven months interest-free on any purchase. I bought a ukulele. In the following months, I bought other things, and I sent in payments randomly. After having a bad experience with Bank of America and a similar promotion, I thought I should call PPC and make sure I was still avoiding interest.

Sure enough, all the payments I had sent went toward the purchase of the uke. It was just about paid off, so I completed the transaction over the phone. With BofA, it was virtually impossible to get the interest-free promotion because of the way they applied payments. That's a bad organization all around.

Anyway, I just wanted to let you know that you can use PayPalCredit with confidence. The phone call went almost immediately to a person I could understand, and she knew what I wanted and took care of it.

Have had similar experience with PPC over the years here. Made several large purchases, paid off with no interest, I also make use of an Amazon store card to stretch payments avoiding interest. No complaints.

FWIW - My first 27" iMac I purchased from the Apple Store using Barclays credit card for the purchase, I think it was 18 months, no interest - made minimal payments till the last month then paid it off at once. When I wanted a newer 27" iMac a couple years back, Barclays refused me a card :) Put it on the Amazon Store card!

It's always good to hear a good referral from a satisfied consumer.
