How long to verify bank account?
 

I signed up for PayPal this past Sunday (today is Friday) and got to the point of entering my bank account (bank of America) for the deposit verification. They say it takes 2-3 business days to get the deposits but they aren't in my account yet.

Did I do something wrong? I just read a post dated 2009 that said I should've used a VCC first then added my bank account but it doesn't say why... does that still hold true?

I've been holding off on signing up for the stealth eBay until I verify the bank with PayPal thinking it will hold more weight, but I'd like to start aging the eBay asap. Do I really need to wait for it before starting eBay?

Had this problem myself this week, called in to be told there a system glitch and they did the bank account there and then on the phone.

What specifically did they ask you? TBH, as this is my first stealth I'm quite apprehensive to calling them. Was it simple?

called in said i havent got the code to my bank, he said theres a glitch and he sorted there and then. Only thing i was asked was full name, thats all.
