The only things I have to say about this is I just got going through it myself and paypal is the worst experience of my life. If you just have a bank account, you wont be able to purchase from over 80% of the places out there without a debit/credit card verified to your account as well "For address verificiation purposes" It took me 3 weeks, to verifiy my bank account, and again to wait for my $200 to be uploaded to paypal. They cashed the Echeque almost a week before they released me my money to find out I cannot use it... I have sent the money back to my bank account and this is what paypal is telling me. " Sep 11, 2012 Transfer To Bank Account Completed (Removed by me) -$200.00 CAD This transaction reads Completed, it has said that for 24 hours, but there is nothing going on with my bank account, I have not recieved my funds back... Some other company is going to throw paypal under the bus soon, and if its a bank, good luck getting copyrights paypal. Anyways when I try to find out more information about my transaction to my bank account. It tells me this now "We can't confirm your bank account because too much time has passed since you added it. To start the confirmation process, click Profile. Then, remove this bank account and add it again." Does say completed, does it not? It is the 3rd week I owned this account, and once I finally get what I deserve back into the rightful hands, I will be terminating my account from paypal, and will never be back again. Worst on-line experience, and worst on-line customer service... I wouldn't even trust paypal with a penny... You never know if you will be able to use it or get it back only having a bank account assigned to your account... P.S. - Paypal is a pyramid scheme business, and I want nothing more to do with it. I haven't had so many problems in all my life, as the problems I was presented by Paypal, I haven't had so much problems trying to spend $200 dollars in my life. I just want the money I tried spending on-line back to my bank account, and then I am gone from this service for good. I advise the same if you only have a bank account. They don't care about hard earned payroll money, they just want fake, give me a bad credit history, credit card or even debit card.
