Any main bank apart from Lloyds works well

Personally I like Halifax and HSBC

Most uk banks work perfectly fine except from lloyds. They tend to not like mismatch names.

Co-op Halifax or Cashplus work great.

Yes an everyday saver works fine with Barclays
Just wait at least 24 hours after creating it before adding it to paypal.

HSBC is a nice one...personally I don't like Halifax but lets not get into that debate.

Natwest is also good

I like the co-op as I have had an account with them the longest.

Most banks are fine and I wouldn't say any are better than the others. It's just a personal preference based on ease of access, history with the bank, customer service etc

Barclays doesn't do mismatched names anymore. Just had a deposit returned, although it wasn't from Paypal.

Groundhog day.

Nothing wrong with Halifax, they have always been superb for me. As long as you use the accounts properly and don't raise fraud alert flags by using underage minors accounts for ebay and paypal like some here have everything should be fine.

Step 1: Link a known bank that allows alias names. You can find information about this in your stealth guide and here on the forum.
Step 2: Withdraw funds from PP to bank account.
Step 3: Strip Club.

Seriously though, Just don't attach an unknown bank. You won't have to worry about PP getting suspicious. Solve the problem before you create one.
