2016 - What methods can I use to withdraw from Paypal?
 

As title, without attaching personal bank?

Re: 2016 - What methods can I use to withdraw from Paypal?
 

Welcome to the forums.

Are you based in Australia actually? You can only withdraw to bank or use funds to buy thing/services/etc

Re: 2016 - What methods can I use to withdraw from Paypal?
 

Hi dweez,

Here's what I do, I have a main PayPal account which is linked to my Bank but not linked to ANY other sites (including eBay). The money that comes through my stealth accounts, I send my earnings to the main account and withdraw the funds to my bank.

Hoping that helps in a way,
Goodluck!

Re: 2016 - What methods can I use to withdraw from Paypal?
 

dweez, bear in mind that what xamp suggests is STRONGLY discouraged here in the forum.

This method will link all your accounts and they will be all at risk. This is a big nono :nono:

Best method is to have a bank account or, as rsot said, use funds for purchasing stuff or services.

There are infos in the forum on the best bank to attach for a AU account.

Re: 2016 - What methods can I use to withdraw from Paypal?
 

Hi
but is that ok if I opened lots of account in one bank? Actually I'm using xamp's way as well : (

Re: 2016 - What methods can I use to withdraw from Paypal?
 

The 2016 way of using paypal is the way been in since paypal started....

Use a variety of methods to get you own fund.

That does include having a bank account.

Confirm if you are OZ based,please.

Withdraw to a bank account. If you have many stealth accounts, try to see if you can use prepaid online bank services to help.

Re: 2016 - What methods can I use to withdraw from Paypal?
 

Opening multiple bank accounts is not an issue as long as it is done smart. Space them out over time and open them with several banks.

Flag was AUSTRALIA

Situation is a little different regarding banks.

:au:

Re: 2016 - What methods can I use to withdraw from Paypal?
 

I'm doing the same thing. How long you been doing this?

Re: 2016 - What methods can I use to withdraw from Paypal?
 

In Australia, there are no prepaid online bank services? Just for info purposes...

Re: 2016 - What methods can I use to withdraw from Paypal?
 

In Aust the only way to withdraw $ from PayPal is to a bank account ie. bsb and acct number. It has been this way since PayPal began. Purpose of which is that should you be naughty, PayPal can ultimately track down the operator by finding out the owner of the bank accounts.

You can open a bunch of paypal accounts, put money into them and then do a "pay a friend" option in PayPal to a single paypal account that is linked to a bank account so you can withdraw the funds BUT you risk locking/limiting ALL the PayPal accounts.

PayPal software tracks every transaction and looks for patterns and links. Simply transferring funds from unverified PayPal stealth accounts to one main account then withdraw is easily recognized by the PayPal system and will be locked down.

You can spend the money out of a stealth PayPal account BUT PayPal really has secret limits (which they dont tell you about) with all accounts and those accounts that have not got a verified bank account attached are some they limit the most.

Yes you probably can put $100 or $200 a month through a PayPal account that is unlinked to a bank account and as you cant withdraw the funds you could spend the money but thats about it. Try putting much more through an unverified/linked PayPal account and you will find it be limited very quickly.

Never link accounts, dummy first guide to surviving PayPal. If your PP is not verified prepare to eat cans of baked beans in the 3-5 business days ;)

If you have your bank account number with an Australian bank, go on google and look for BSB matching the SAME Bank. You then can potentially have over 100 BSB's which can do wonders in surviving this game with PP.

Re: 2016 - What methods can I use to withdraw from Paypal?
 

I tried taking your advise and it completely screwed me over.

Re: 2016 - What methods can I use to withdraw from Paypal?
 

You would be surprised on how much "BAD" advice is given on this forum.

Re: 2016 - What methods can I use to withdraw from Paypal?
 

I know but i don't get how he/she managed to use same account. Tried a number of accounts.

Re: 2016 - What methods can I use to withdraw from Paypal?
 

Because the person who gave you the advice left out some crucial information.

Re: 2016 - What methods can I use to withdraw from Paypal?
 

huh, you tried adding a random bank acc number? how are going to verify doing that?

Re: 2016 - What methods can I use to withdraw from Paypal?
 

They never end up verified.

Their paypal account ends up being looked at because of the incorrect numbers.

But worse is the fact an innocent user has their bank account info used so some toerag, oops stealther, can do paypal. First the other person knows is when their bank locks their account thinking that account has been hacked.
That opens a great can of worms, and trouble.
Touches on ID theft, if you think about it carefully.
:mad:

Re: 2016 - What methods can I use to withdraw from Paypal?
 

That is not what I was trying to do. Another user stated if you change bsb and have the same account then you can reuse. Which is totally false information. Plus why would you deposit funds into someone elses bank. Have a read

Re: 2016 - What methods can I use to withdraw from Paypal?
 

Can be dangerous if the bank account is indeed valid and belongs to someone else...

Re: 2016 - What methods can I use to withdraw from Paypal?
 

You are most certainly not the poster in question.
In any case, I quoted and replied to oompappa.

What I mentioned has happened with bank accounts/paypals.
Happened to an account of mine here in OZ.

I got a fraud notice from ANZ when paypal tried to take back the deposits. Account had no association with paypal/ebay to this day.
:peace:

Re: 2016 - What methods can I use to withdraw from Paypal?
 

Oh i see. I hope you closed the account. Def a fraud issue, they probably tried logging in to your Internet banking. That's only benefit i see if someone adding another person's account.

Re: 2016 - What methods can I use to withdraw from Paypal?
 

well, seems weird a bank would want to lock a bank acc just due to paypal verify deposits being taken back, bit heavy handed...

wonder how paypal knew it was not a the correct bank, in order to take it back, if you did not report it? the numbers were valid after all.....

the only question I had was, what is the point? I mean if you do not have access to the bank you cannot use it to verify, as you cannot see the code....

Re: 2016 - What methods can I use to withdraw from Paypal?
 

ompappa,

Burn and churn tactics.

:sly:

Re: 2016 - What methods can I use to withdraw from Paypal?
 

I don't think you understood what happened. I was under the impression that if i change bsb numbers and use the same account number it will still work. This would help not opening more bank accounts.

Re: 2016 - What methods can I use to withdraw from Paypal?
 

To those reading this advice, please don't....your only going to get pissed when you find out they don't work.

Re: 2016 - What methods can I use to withdraw from Paypal?
 

Account has a fraud alert for transactions.

If I do not respond, then it is blocked for customer protection.

Re: 2016 - What methods can I use to withdraw from Paypal?
 

So looks like there's no other way for money out accept your own bank account?

Re: 2016 - What methods can I use to withdraw from Paypal?
 

what about moving money from a american paypal?
I have a US ebay and paypal accounts, can i link a AU bank to my US paypal?

Re: 2016 - What methods can I use to withdraw from Paypal?
 

Nope, No can do. You have 2 options:
1. US Bank
2. Transfer to another Paypal, in which you run the risk of getting funds frozen.

Re: 2016 - What methods can I use to withdraw from Paypal?
 

or pretty much just buy stuff with the money.
what about sending the money to a gambling account like bet365.com or any others that accept paypal?

Re: 2016 - What methods can I use to withdraw from Paypal?
 

Not gonna work with US PayPal.

Re: 2016 - What methods can I use to withdraw from Paypal?
 

Are you suggesting that using the same ' account number ' and simply 'changing bsb' numbers will

1. Deposit money in the account (no bank errors)
2. Paypal wont link the accounts?

Re: 2016 - What methods can I use to withdraw from Paypal?
 

That is possible. BOQ has several BSBs

Re: 2016 - What methods can I use to withdraw from Paypal?
 

If you look around you can find some people selling Banknotes for collectors a lot of which is still legal tender here in Australia some can be bought a tad over face value.

Re: 2016 - What methods can I use to withdraw from Paypal?
 

mods - can we rename/retire this post and create a 2019 one, and discuss new methods to withdraw funds from gaypal for Australian users/
