I found extra cash in my PayPal account!
A whole dime! All it says is Cash Bonus
What could I have done to deserve such a generous gift?

I have several of those cash bonuses, also! First one was 22 cents. Then, there were others showing up! I'm almost up to 40 cents in cash bonuses now!
So, I started noticing when I pay someone, a statement shows up somewhere along the way that I get a 1% bonus because the seller had a Premier account or something like that. Haven't written down the exact wording. Watch the next time you pay someone!

I stay away from horses... don't trust 'em

I do indeed remember. I went into shock when my son asked for a couple of quarters for the payphone.
SouthernOne: That's it. I did indeed pay someone with a Premier account. Thanks for solving the mystery.

Let me get this straight - Paypal is giving BUYERS a bonus at the SELLER'S expense?????

Eyeofnute:
It's not the point of how much it is. It's the point that BUYERS are given an incentive to purchase from sellers who have a premier/business account.
Just like ebay - everything is for the buyers at the seller's expense. (Like Billpoint - buyers pay no fees and get $1 off their purchase, and sellers pay all fees).
It's rediculous!

Everyone,
Once again, threads concerning PayPal are dominating the eBay Outlook. I am going to lock this thread as well as several others, and ask that you confine your comments concerning PayPal to the one PayPal thread that will be left open in the eBay Outlook, or start a new thread in the Partner Services Forum.
Thanks for your cooperation.
