Hi Siobhan, I had already had a debit card registered to the account in addition to a bank account. Because you insist on a direct debit to verify my account, I obliged, and after this was verified I cancelled the direct debit, and under advice removed the bank account leaving just the debit card. I was incorrrect in what I had said earlier, in that I had been previously used the debit card to pay for purchases through PayPal for a number of years. I therefore can't see the requirement of linking the debit card yet again to the PayPal account. For me there are no charges associate with my debit card to fund PayPal. If you'd prefer me to use fund direct from the bank account, it may be useful to offer an incentive. Regards Mike
