I had set up this account with a debit card. That card just expired. I had closed the account because I get paid via paypal now. I use the mastercard business debit.
The account I am on with my daughter (set it up as her being the primary as she was able to get in to a credit union), well, we've tried to link it to her PP and the deposits never come through. Contacted the cu, they never get them they say. Anyway, the debit card is in her name, so I don't think I can use that as my backup....
Anyway... so because I cannot get customer service to answer my question... will I lose access to my paypal balance if I don't have a backup until I can figure out why the checking won't link? Just the balance. I don't spend more than what is in paypal when I use the PP Business debit anyway.
Thanks.

No, you will not lose your balance, just because you do not have a back up source set up on your business debit card. And if I understood your post right, you can only link cards and bank account that are under your name to your PayPal account for use as back up.
Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂
