Very good information! Thank you for that. I was curious about Venmo also. It is now written off of my list as something useful!Venmo as far as I know does not have a "goods and services" type protection. It is ment for funds transfer between two known parties. Not for business transactions. I do a lot of dealings on another site and a lot of scammers use venmo for a reason. I work too hard for my money. If they won't accept "g&s" PayPal, I don't need it that bad.
I’ve heard bad things about Venmo. People shouldn’t have a problem using PayPal, cash, or money order. I don’t use Venmo and never will. I’m sad sometimes when I can’t buy something because the seller only accepts Venmo.
People have been fine with me sending them cash thru mail as payment inbetween paper.Cash is not an option for any transaction that is not face to face. About two years ago two of my sons and I bought a backhoe online. My oldest did the bidding and paid online. One of my other sons gave me a stack of cash for his portion. I took it and my cash over to my oldest sons house I left it in an envelope while he was at work. He contacted me later and asked what the hell do you think I am going to do with all this cash? I was bewildered. He said just write me a check. I can take a picture of the check and automatically deposit it in the bank. The bank is never open when I can deposit cash

I’ve only done it with members of forums, so I do check out their profiles/posts first and many I’ve known for a while. Plus a couple are so nice they tell me to wait to send cash until after I receive their item.I'm ok with you sending cash to me too. Just don't get mad when you get nothing in return.
YepI'm ok with you sending cash to me too. Just don't get mad when you get nothing in return.
Well shoot then I signed up on my computer. I use my phone to talk.I asked my bank about it and was told it is strictly a phone app thing. I only do $ transactions via my PC so that scratched Venmo for me.
It may have changed, don't know. This was probably a year agoWell shoot then I signed up on my computer. I use my phone to talk.
I remember the early days of eBay when PayPal was not even an option.I saw that our eBay account just started offering Venmo as a payment option.
