In October and November
2007 we accepted PAYPAL
but the failure rate was 99% which was frustrating for both
ourselves and our customers, so we discontinued PayPal. We
did try to contact PayPal but the experience was both time-consuming
and painful and in the end we gave up.*

At first they said they could not discuss the matter by email
for security reasons and gave a telephone number that was
of no use. Eventually (several weeks later) they did reply
by email - they simply copied their standard terms and conditions.
This included the well-known fact that we must ship
to the address shown on the PayPal Payments Page. Our actual
question to PayPal was: why is this always shown as "No
address Provided" ? And since the official answer from
Paypal is that we must ship to the goods to 'no address provided'
our conclusion is that we cannot use PayPal.
