Anyone used ffree UK bank account?

[saldownes0151]

Hi just wondering if anyone has used the ffree UK bank account says you can use it to withdraw with PayPal but have to change settings to standing order not direct debit on PayPal!!
Any help

[RosieTosie]

If I remember right, PayPal do not like standing orders only direct debits!

Ffree doesn't accept PayPal transfer, so you can't withdraw.

Ffrees works fine for pp. They just reject the direct debit but the withdrawals go through fine.

Correct. As long as you dont let it get kicked its fine. Re-add via withdraw section.

So sounds like this account is added in the same way as savings accounts, by ignoring the kickback of the direct debit, and just add it again when the withdrawal time arrives

What message did you get?

[saldownes0151]

I haven't tried it as I was just looking at different UK bank accounts and came across it it says it can be used with PayPal as a standing order...
Contacted ffree bank and something they're looking into and hopefully up and running by this spring

Hmm cant make an account online or I'd like to test it out too :(

You're adding it the wrong way then, this message is becoming a lot more frequent for 'out of the norm' type bank accounts.

Tip: Dont use the old PayPal

So is this Ffree bank ok to use? Has anyone else tried it and had good feedback?

[freeuk7]

yes frees is good to use.
Have been using it on one account for more than 6 months now, no problem so far.
However if you opt for the basic account keep in mind you can only have a maximum of £5000 deposited at any one time. Not that you would keep all of that money on any account attached to a paypal anyway but worth knowing.

Yes ffrees is perfectly fine to use. I have been using it for months without any issues at all *touch wood*.
