Avoid Aliexpress via Paypal. All, yes ALL, transactions are being processed by Paypal as cash advance! Resulting in Credit Card Issuer inflicting a cash advance transaction fee + accrual of daily interest as high as 28% APR! No way to resolve and all three companies (CC, AE & Paypal) will circle jerk the finger pointing of who is responsible with no solution. Reddit is exploding with many customers getting hit with these fees in the tune of 10's and even 100's of dollars. Avoid!!!

Paying the balance early in Pay Monthly won't violate the terms.

Remove your PayPal account from eBay payment first. Now after making a purchase, it will redirect you to PayPal, pick 'pay in 4' from there.

Reading it again (why do I waste my time I probably read it in more detail than PayPal staff), it doesn't explicitly clarify the previous terms lol. It could be that the "change" is from up to $1250 across multiple purchases to the single purchase up to $1250. They definitely reserve the right to change pending points. But one would think that they'd have changed the pending points at the same time they change the terms. Anyway good luck to all. Legendary promo in SD land.
Prior to today, it was $1,250 per purchase. As of today they changed the terms and it is now limited to one purchase.

I guess we found out who was right about the $1250 total limit, and who was wrong. I guess certain common sense parameters are hard for some to understand...
well.. both camps were kinda right in this case lol

if i cancelled an order which has 25000 points pending, and if i order something else, will i still get the 20% cashback?
Don't risk it. I would think not, especially if you got the email. You're on a list now.

For those who already used this, how do you know if the cashback was successful?
I just placed an order with Samsung for a Q990D system, with Paypal Pay Later, 4 Pay option using credit card
Pay in 4 showed up, and Samsung order showed up on my Paypal account. The Samsung order shows "Points Pending", but points still showing 0 for now. Added this offer earlier today and this is my first order.
I activated the offer yesterday, and made my purchase this morning. In the rewards section, there is a "rewards activity" at the bottom, and it shows my points pending. However, I chose store pickup, and my items are ready at the store.

They should have just changed it to limit to $1250 in total purchases, rather than one single. So now you have people who earned over $1000 in rewards and some who only got $10, because of limiting it to one purchase.

The real crazy deals were if you were able to stack the 20% Paypal bonus with any third-party clickthrough cashback promos on sites. Ali had a few days of 30% cashback on Rak10 so if you were able to stack the 20% Paypal bonus that's like 50% off, assuming you're not paying an inflated "Black Friday" price for whatever cheap Chinese goods you were purchasing.

Damn I wanted to buy an iphone with this deal but none of these crappy retailers are offering deals for "Black Friday".
Fingers crossed on the 44k points on the way.

Terms and Conditions are the rules to follow. They changed the T&C mid game. You can't have nice things because they tweaked the rules.

What a legendary thread and deal this turned out to be!
I'd like to thank everyone for the laughs, but special shoutout to the AI guy and angry kenny. And of course, PayPal, thanks for the $1050!
Let the meltdowns continue

Thank you PayPal for the $200 on my purchases. I only made it to about $1000 before the promo was updated this morning, but very happy for it. Got a pretty nice discount on new car tires, along with getting some Christmas shopping done.
