I just called Paypal and they walked me through canceling the fact that you do not have to sign in to paypal each time i buy something frm fb/ft I now have to sign in each time. thought you all might like to know this

Just to add to this. I cancelled the one for my wife and it took a month and an email form to Facebook to get it back where she could use Paypal. So cancelling this may not be such a good idea. Watching your Paypal account is a good idea all the time.

I also just spoke with Paypal because I had the same concerns. I was told the only way to be forced to sign in for each transaction is to cancel the Facebook billing account and reopen each time. What I learned that put my mind at ease is that if a transaction appears that is not mine, they do have the ability to trace it back to FT and FB and see exactly where it was used. Because of that we are protected. If it wasn't used on MY farm I'd get the money back. Also... Neither Facebook nor Zynga have access to anything in our accounts. The money is transferred on secure lines. If you want to speak with them just click on "contact us" and it will give you a web pin number and a phone number to call. They are very nice to deal with.

I have several merchants that I deal with that have the same thing and no problems. All they get is a code to allow them to complete the transaction without you having to sign in to Paypal. Paypal still sends you a transaction email notice so you know instantly that it has gone through and can dispute it if it is wrong.

Thanks for the great updates Raul!! It would be real nice if we could have a list of ingredients for all the new items. Some are easy enough to figure out but others are not. How about it...a list please of ingredients???

Does this system allow you to pay with a credit card through PayPal? They keep the default at deducting the money from your bank account, and you have to actually go to your PayPal account to change it to paying by credit card. If not, I'm not going to use it; we don't keep much money in the bank account that PayPal is linked to.

Good thing a couple of local stores have FB Credits gift cards. I seriously don't trust the combination of FB and PP with my bank accounts.

I believe you can change your primary payment method in Paypal to a credit card with the bank account as a secondary. As long as it is a confirmed payment method then should go through ok. You might want to put that question to Paypal though. If you can then that would protect your credit card info from FB.

I see a few games shutting down and discontinuing on facebook. Im assuming this is due to facebook's changes? The mobsters game shut down today over there. The Playdom company's not re-imbursing any real life money spent on the game as none of the others that have shut down will.
You spend real money on a game and the game goes poof - you are SOL and out of luck. you wont get money back, and you wont have a single thing to show for it when it happens..

I know many ppl have spent a ton of money buying a lot of premium game item for various games and lost everything when the game went offline for good, so just be forwarned.

I'm ready and willing to buy several hundred farm cash dollars right now, but I can't get the facebook credits with my prepaid credit card, and I'm not willing to use my regular credit card. I've use a prepaid card for over a year now with no problems until we have been forced to buy facebook credits. Being given a new update with you beaut farm cash tools simply adds insult to injury.

If you are giving us 'crab cakes' then pleeeeeeeeese give us an upgrade of crab to catch. I have so many sea coasts at the moment, and we should not be forced to buy more and more to accommodate the crab content.

I guess this will be added to the 'pet gripes' thread, but I am really liking the upgrade, just not the problems which means that I am being shut out of buying the cash to buy the new tools.

why dont u create a paypal account and link your prepaid credit card (debit card) to it

thats how mine is set up and works a treat

Thanks Al, I actually had tried that and for some reason it kept sending me a message saying there was a problem, but it is all sorted now and I have some farm cash again.
