I've been trying to connect my bank account to myPayPal account. I've been told they'll send a small deposit with a code that will let me connect to my account attached to it. It's been over a week now and I STILL haven't gotten a code yet! Does PayPal not want my business? I was making payments through y cancelled debit card (possibility of unauthorized usage) for a big art commission, $117 a month. But I haven't been able to make a payment for two months now and no one at PayPal seems to now what to do? Do I need to start sending money via Western Union or what?

I have responded to your questions twice before, and neither time have you bothered to say thank you OR left kudos or a solution mark.
So I expect someone will respond at some point but I don't bother anymore if folks can't say thanks.
Advice is voluntary.
Kudos / Solution appreciated.

Hello @FMTFuver and @kernowlass,
Welcome back to the Community, @FMTFuver, and thank you for everything you do, @kernowlass!
I understand you still haven't received the confirmation deposits after connecting your bank account, @FMTFuver. I'm sorry to hear about the frustration this has caused you. Typically, you should see the deposits in an average of three to five business days. If it has been more than that, that could mean they were rejected by your bank. You can try requesting them again online by following the steps to confirm you bank again on our Help Center here. However, I recommend reaching out to our Customer Support teams first. They can check to see if we've received any denials. If that's the case, you may need to add a different bank account. You can reach out to Customer Support by selecting 'Contact' at the bottom of any PayPal website.
I hope you can add the bank soon!
