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.

Just Redeemed my points to papal balance , but my PayPal balance is still 0. Why?
It takes about 12-24 hours before your balance will update once you redeem your points.

My account had the offer, I saved and used for a small purchase. then later Paypal told me this is the only purchase that will get 20%.

Now my wife's account also has the offer, I saved, however, can't see the pay in 4 option in Pay later. Wondering why?

Did anyone by any chance use TicketMaster to buy any tickets? I tried it on Friday but the final transaction did go through. I did get a pending charge both ways, in my CC and PayPal, but they did disappear today since the actual transaction wasn't finalized.

PayPal terms strictly state that it'll take 90 days to issue the points, which by then most, if not all return windows would close. I personally don't like how PayPal pulled this shady stuff... it screwed me over by not letting me use the 'Pay in 4' even though I was fully eligible. I'm sure someone is going to sue them over this.
People who bought around the 18th or earlier have already reported that they've gotten the points and converted them into PayPal balance, unless I'm reading it wrong.

However, it doesn't matter because the return will undoubtedly be deducted any cashback points that were redeemed.

I know when I bought from Walmart, I had to remove PayPal as an option for payment in my account. That's what triggered pay in four to appear properly.

Are you really sure that this works at Walmart? I did remove the PayPal payment and log into PayPal again several times, but didn't see this offer. I saw this offer at Samsung, but not at Walmart.

Quote from Mijamdeals :
Today's purchase was $400. And that $400 still wouldn't have maxed out the 20% rewards. Only thing I can think of is that the 5% back that preceded the 20% was also included in the $1250 total spend. I didn't max out the rewards total of 25000, but when I include those 5% purchases from earlier, my total spend across both promotions for 5% back and 20% back comes to about $1300.
My datapoint matches that of several others.

I had made ONE purchase around $800 prior to the term-changes.

Reading about the success of others after having received the change of terms email from Paypal, I decided to go ahead and try.

So JUST NOW, I make a PAY in 4 purchase of $500 (so I spent just over $1250 between the two transaction), and now I see pending points for the full $250, AND the offer is now marked as completed. It says "Congratulations! You did it!"

I fully expect the first points to come through as it was before the terms changed. Hopefully, the rest become payable too. Looks like they probably will, but we won't know until it actually happens.

Happy to be done with the deal, and VERY glad that I didn't jump on the chatgpt "infinite money glitch" bandwagon and make multiple $1250+ purchases.

Same for me (2 accounts). Max cashback is adjusted to $250. All purchases are made on the Nov 20th and 21st
Max CB adjusted to 250 total across accounts? Or across all purchases in a given account? Thanks

Thanks.

It seems BestBuy does not have those option thing. I tried to delete all my cards in the account but still don't see Pay in 4 under Pay Later of PayPal.

Thanks. I just bought $1,125 amazon gift cards from Best Buy. 22500 points are pending. I hope it goes through.
Did your order go through? Did you call best buy ahead of time so that they don't cancel your order? Did the points in paypal come through? Thanks

Did they email you telling you that's the only purchase that will get 20% or was there some notice when you tried buying something else with pay 4 later?

Are you seeing 10000 points for second purchase or only 8000 points?
