I have had a terrible time with PAXFUL. Perhaps I'm just having bad luck but every attempt has failed - usually because the BTC seller wants to sell far more BTC than the quantity they post and want to sell offline via text message.
Two days ago I tried to buy $250 of BTC using PayPal on PAXFUL. I sent the payment and the seller balked (he said because PayPal requires up to a 7 day wait). I tried to get a Paxful moderator and then cancel the transaction but it had already posted on Paypal.
Now I'm fighting with Paxful and their support is abysmal.
