After my earlier comment about this issue and not really getting a good answer, I did find that there's still a way to add funds to your Paypal account. It's been awhile now, so I'm just assuming that it's still set up the same way as it was. Anyway - if you follow the links in your account to where you can "Add Money" you'll see that one option is to create a scheduled withdrawal from your bank account. There you can create a plan for adding funds to your Paypal account. Really...why can we do this but not simply add a one-time transfer? They want you to set up a periodic transfer from your bank account to your Paypal account. This is not exactly what I had in mind at the time. I simply wanted to add funds to make a purchase. So, I went ahead and set up a transfer schedule, I just chose once per month (beginning immediately), and then input the total amount I was originally wanting to transfer. Well, after a few days (about the same time it would take for a one time transfer), I could see that the funds had been transferred to Paypal. Once I confirmed this I then went back into the "Add Money" location in my Paypal account and then turned off my scheduled transfer plan. It's kind of a round about way of doing it, but it seems to be the only way to actually get money in my account (without someone making a purchase and adding funds in that way).
