The only problem I have encountered with Pay Pal is my wife had signed up for the account with our home address. When I use it is always says address unconfirmed and sometimes creates a question as to the validity of my being able to use it and it is always says to ship to my wife's name and home address. I tried to get my name on the account as well but they claim they can't do that. So I wanted to get my own account but they say "one account per e-mail address". Oh well, I've learned to live with it.
