Paypal users across the country have been warned over changes to legal agreements that will apply to every user.
The online transaction service has issued emails to users warning them of the changes coming to their accounts.
It read: "We're making some changes to our legal agreements that will apply to you.
“There is no action needed from you today, but if you would like to learn more, you can find details about these changes, when they apply and what you can do if you want to decline the changes on our Policy Updates page."
They add "You can also view these changes by visiting paypal.com/uk, clicking 'Legal' at the bottom of the page and then selecting 'Policy Updates'.
"If you have questions about any of these changes or your account, please don't hesitate to get in touch with us.
"Thank you for using PayPal. Sincerely, Paypal."
It comes as eBay warned millions of customers over new rules coming o the online retailer this month where sellers will no longer be paid via their Paypal account.
New rules from May 31 will see changes to its payment system and new restrictions on controversial listings.
Expenses and fees deducted at the point of sale. Previously these charges have been deducted in a monthly billing statement.
The remaining balance will then be transferred directly to the seller’s bank account, rather than their PayPal account, meaning that sellers will be required to use a bank transfer to claim their earnings.
The changes mean that buyers will have more options to purchase items with, including; Google Pay, Apple Pay and PayPal.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
