if you in the uk paypal topupcard is worth getting mate - free to transfer money from paypal account to it, standard visa card.
takes about a day to load the money onto it - but quicker than moving the money into your own card account from paypal :0)

I do agree that the fraud risk is there.
But on the other hand if PayPal was excepted it could be done only if the payee was the same as the account holder, that does reduce the fraud risk in someway.
Yes it would take longer for payments to go through and I guess it would be a manual verifaction to match accounts to names.
I would like to see a way for PayPal to be excepted on the fact that most of the payments I get are from PayPal so it would make my life easier.
I don't think it would be to hard to add as a payment option, but as said I don't think it would be instant payment system.
But in the end it does come down to the risk of fraud and cost.

Risk of fraud is way too high for them to use PayPal.

It will never happen for a lot of reasons:
1. Too much work involved in integrating PayPal into such a huge company.
2. It takes too much time to credit accounts in either direction; PayPal > Bank and Bank > Paypal.
3. Its too easy to commit fraud by stealing somebody else's account, verified or not.
I'm sure OVH can provide more real reasons but I can only guess these are the main reasons.

I have two servers now, I've confirmed my address via postal mail and payed via CC... But if I could pay my next payments via PayPal, that would be much better for me - easier, and CHEAPER as I wouldn't have CC fees all over the places. I wish OVH could accept PayPal from us users who already are confirmed.
