GP mentioned:

>free transfers between bank accounts

does it really matter if it was done through some third party service?

Absolutely, given that Paypal can freeze your money indefinitely for arbitrary reasons (and has a long history of doing so).

Does it for consumers? I thought it’s only for sellers. That’s also been my experience.

Why put another potentially malicious, rent seeking third-party between you and your friend's banks?
