PayPal and Bank Account

[Hitman]

Hellooo. You may remember me making a similar thread regarding PP and being under 18... well I've a new question, and you can probably guess what it is.

Seeing as my debit card didn't work with PP, will hooking up my bank account work? I am under 18, so will they do any checks on the account owner or anything? Something weird happened when I signed up for PP... it never asked me for my DOB. :S I can do online banking, so if I hooked up my bank to my PP then I'd be able to send and receive money from and to the bank account (and I'd be verified). Just don't wanna do it if the bank says something or PP does.

Thankssssss.

both debit card & bank worked fine for me even though i'm underage.

I have no idea why it wouldn't work for you.

Yeah, my bank account and debit card work fine. If your bank allows you to use Direct Debit's then you should be OK.

lol I don't think they allow me to use direct debits but I did it anyway... been a few days now, should be done tomorrow (if it works).

Im underage, it didn't ask me for my dob either, but then I almost got busted for being under 18. Anway, I dont use bank or debit, I get my mates to send me cash and pay em back with the real stuff or I earn it by selling layouts, coding, etc...

Mmk, well it's fine so far. All I'm gonna be doing is recieving money from webdesgins and then just sending it to my bank...

I was wondering, what checks to PayPal do when you "confirm your information" to remove limits (spending limits)?

you get unstuck if you go over a crazy amount because they ask for photo ID.

but if you are just buying stuff on ebay or paying for hosting/domains whatever it's fine. to confirm your bank account they deposit 2p or 3p in your account and you have to type in the amount and date that they were deposited.

i think that's how it works. they used to send a postcard with a code on before i BELIEVE.
