I am trying to send money to a friend using my DEBIT card attached to my checking account. But it is wanting to charge me a fee of over $8. It should be free. Why is it wanting to charge me?

From PAYPAL website:
Sending domestic personal transactions
I am trying to send money to a family member using a debit card and its trying to charge me $8. Yet, according to your website there should be no charge for this transaction. Please advise how to send a payment without a fee to a family member using a debit card.

Did you not read what you yourself wrote, free is you fund it from a bank account or your paypal balance.
But its not free if you use a card, you said yourself you are trying to fund it via a debit CARD.

Yes, I read what I wrote Mr. Smart-aleck! My debit card IS attached directly to my bank account!! I would suggest PAYPAL change their instructions to read that the term "bank account" means using account and routing numbers found on the bottom of a CHECK in order to avoid a fee. Their instructions are not clear.

Strange most folks know that in your wallet you have a section for cards and one for bank accounts and can work out the difference.
Also most folks understand the difference between a bank account and a debit card but I have posted a link to help you.
