No. They have been in the business for a very long time. They are one of the most trusted payment partners of many sites. If there are some things that are not going well, it could be your fault but if not just submit a ticket or report. If they are just a scamsite, they shoud've been gone a long time ago.

Most of people complaining about paypal are people cheating themselves. They create fake accounts with proxies, fake details, unclear verification process used, then once paypal catch them they like to complaint. Often paypal lets you use your fake account, it doesn't mean cheating works, but the fact is while you're able to use your account their system is just monitoring you during a period of time, then after sometime boom. It's like some vcc were able to be used with paypal for verification and others, but then once people abuse it, paypal block the card, then you can see people searching for another vcc that will work.
It's true sometimes their system and their TOS can be unfair, but most of the complaints found online are not clear and not telling the full story. You never find someone complaining about paypal because they cheated.

Completely agree!
I usually laugh on people when they say, "I thought Paypal was credible company but it limited me." which would rather be read as "I was not expecting Paypal to be such watchy and when I was trying to fool it, it limited me."
In 10 out of 10 cases, the mistake is on user end. Paypal is a financial company and it has to be very up-to-mark with its ToS and policy.

I have had an issue with Paypal and while I was trying to look for a solution on the internet, I came across this website (https://www.consumeraffairs.com/online/paypal_02.html) where everybody is complaining about Paypal. Most of the complains were actually similar to the one that I have. I thought Paypal is a credible company but now I have started feeling worried about my funds stuck in the accounts.
Actually it's not a scam, paypal
but a way of working that used by paypal is insufficient. So many users who complained.

Read and understand the terms of service. If you follow the rules, you'll be fine.
Yeah terms of service is a must that every user should be aware of, before making use of the service rendered by PayPal. There are users who have lost big amount even after following the process that's been designed by the team. For this we cannot say it a scam as one in thousand or lakh gets such issue which are mostly solved.

I dont think Paypal is a scam, its just that it has a high charges to users. And, many people already used this Paypal globally. Maybe people think its a scam because they find it difficulty to used the service.
agreed, though it can't be denied that many of their client was complaining in terms of their services.  But it does not mean they scam there customer. Maybe there must be some other reason why some of their customers facing difficulty it can be they're customer did something violation or breaking their rules, something like that.
yes ,and paypal is not to handy for sone people but in terms of using it and have available funds you can contact their support if any problems occur ..Paypal is not scam depending also their rules and agreement if you violate one like you said.
Those people who said paypal is scam doesn't know the rules or they didn't obey the rules so they are keep telling that paypal is a scam because their account might be freeze by the company and they didn't get their money back. In terms of any company that offering a service like paypal, i don't think that they are scam because if they are scam then no one will trust their company and they will not have a user at least.

I get good service from PayPal. I have never had any conflicts with the administration of this service. But I did not make big payments through this system. Can they only block large amounts?

Any amount can be blocked/frozen for whatever reason. Thing with larger amounts is that they may raise a certain form of suspicion, in which PayPal will force you to submit proof of source in order to unluck the funds. In most cases things get sorted pretty quickly, but there are examples of things taking weeks to get solved. Especially in case PayPal deems your proof insufficient. But it's all in their TOS. If you make use of their service, you directly agree to all their terms, and thus these actions should be expected in one way or another. It may be annoying, but there is no point in complaining. You signed up there.
PayPal has had succeed for reasons, because it was anew ide and people needed a way to sue their money on the internet and they saw a future in it so they supported it and it became popular, but over the years it became old fashion and the world developed and new things appeared  and people have new priorities.

I think bitcoin is a new idea and it will be the same, so PayPal is not that much of a scam when you think of it but it is more has changed on what it used to be, and I hope that it does not happen to bitcoin as well.

I don't have paypal, i only have bitcoin but if you want to ask me if paypal is scam then i would probably say no because if it is a scam then there will no people using it as their online wallet for their money to do transaction, paypal is not scam and there is no news in the television that says that it is a scam.

This depending on the experience of a person who use paypal. For me it is not scam and it is reputable site.

I dont have any problem on it the only problem i encountered was nit using it for a long time then my password doesnt match so i have a long time trouble chamging the password then it keep saying invalid password even my password is already okay.

Yeah it really depends on the individual. Someone might have a negative experience using them, others seems have a good experience using paypal. Personally, I don't have one so I don't think they are scam. Maybe paypal are just too strict in their implementation of its services that's why people are seeing them as scam.

I had paypal and it never failed to do any transaction, i had heard there are many people said that paypal froze their account without any notice, I think there always are reason why paypal did that and paypal is a big company and very trusted to do million dollar of transaction every year, so I dont believe paypal is a scammed
yes i think different people have different experience about paypal.  for some people people paypal is good as they are getting good service from paypal, while according to some people paypal is not providing such a good service or in some area even their service is not available, therefore people there do not consider papal as good. as in my areas the service of paypal is not available and therefore i cannot say anything about paypal. either their service is good or bad.

Paypal is an excellent payment system. It has been working for many years. But Paypal very rigidly watches that people do not use it in illegal schemes. Often people themselves are to blame for the fact that their account is blocked

People accusing PayPal of being a scam are often those who violate the TOS or deal in illegal activities, and then face clawback of their funds when PayPal wises up to them, or the counter-parties they are dealing with report them. As a large financial institution, PayPal is regulated. There are plenty of remedies for anyone feeling "wronged" by PayPal, be it through regulators, or by filing a civil action to recoup their "scammed by PayPal" funds. The reason this doesn't happen is because PayPal is following the law, and the aggrieved users are not.
