Remove your bank account, even if paypal is limited.

[idiotbay]

hi everyone,

I have read somewhere that you can remove your bank account from a limited paypal.

To do this you have to cancel the direct debit agreement with paypal and then they will delete it from their records. Then after 5 days, you can use it again. I am going to try it, is it worth it ??

thanks

They will not delete anything from their records...You can believe that.

You will just be linking new and future accounts.

yeah if you try to use it with another account it WILL be linked and limited

I understand that any new PP accounts, connected to bank accounts that have previously been linked to limited accounts, are themselves likely to become limited. My question is, what if that doesn't matter? What if I have a paypal account, that was never verified with a bank account before, and is now limited with $xxx in it. Since it is already limited, I don't really fear it BECOMING limited, but I will still need to add a bank account to remove that $.

Can I add a bank account that was previously connected to (and removed from) another limited account? What could the possible repercussions be?

Deeznuts you can no longer add a bank account to a limited paypal to withdraw the funds. This has been discussed lately, if its a stealth account you have a problem. You may have to open a business with that name.

[deeznuts]

do you mean you can't add a bank account to an account that's CURRENTLY limited, or one that was previously limited and has completed the 180 day wait period?

I'm interested to know if I could add a bank account that was removed from a limited account, to an account that was never verified, but limited and since completed the 180 day wait period, in order to retrieve the funds once released.

Are you saying that's also impossible now? =(

you can't do that. once limited you cannot add or subtract anything from your paypal account. everything is frozen. if you had a bank account attached at the time of your limitation, it is best to leave that bank account active so that you can get a wire transfer once the limit is released. otherwise they will send you a check in the name on the paypal account.

In general you never add bank account again once it was used with any paypal previously. It's a waste of efforts and time, so Lakeman is correct. It's impossible to get your money back this way.

This is an old thread...but I just added 2 new bank accounts to limited pp accounts. Still waiting on the 180 days. But it let me add them

how bout a non limited stealth account and i added a bank account just to withdraw the funds then succesfully withdrawn then remove the bank account immediately after withdraw. Can i still use this bank account to any of my stealth pay-pal account and not get linked? (remember this certain bank account has been already removed from my other stealth account)

Yeah but they retain the record that it was used, so you take a chance with that one, as one goes down and they both go down. due to the bank account

Why bother with this sure fire failure? Go into bank, have them change account number. You now have a new account

Just tell them you clicked a suspicious email that you thought was them. Sure, you look stupid, but have a new bank account

[rsot]

pod speaks the truth

[art888]

i did what pod said about a year ago and it worked, i did it over the phone.

USA banking differs from UK banking..UK users can and should remove the DD. Sadly the Yanks dont have the exact same procedure. (Should never have had that tea party )

mmmm but tea is sooo good
