Re: PayPal TOS Update - Transfers for verified people only!
People send funds to each other all the time. Family and Friends etc.
So yes it does affect Buyers. I see your point of course. It seems Paypal have a big problem with purchases paid with Paypal balances. |

WTF?!?!
"For business accounts, we are changing the fee charged for our faster withdrawal option to an eligible debit card linked to your PayPal account to 1% of the transferred amount." |

Re: PayPal TOS Update - Transfers for verified people only!
Generally when a real Paypal user is transferring money via F&F it's funded by their bank/CC and not a PP balance.
I'm not denying it will impact buyers but I think it will impact stealth sellers way more. |

| Yeah, I saw that. But I've never done the debit card withdrawal thing anyway. Why pay when it's free the other way? |

Re: PayPal TOS Update - Transfers for verified people only!
They know how to make money, that's for sure.
Do you know what the rate currently is? |

Re: PayPal TOS Update - Transfers for verified people only!
I'm not surprised they are adding some new fees. They are gonna see a decent drop in their income around June when eBay allows an on-site payment options. I'd almost bet they raise their % on sales slightly soon too. |

| $.25 per withdrawal.
I don't know what kind of processing rates PP gets from the networks but I was surprised to see a flat fee when they rolled out the feature. They would have to be losing money if someone transferred a couple thousand dollars to their card and PP only charged $.25. |

Holy moly! Now it'll be $10 to withdraw $1000. Significant jump for people drawing big bucks, often.
Only time I'd ever use it is, if it was on a Friday. My money seems to go into the twilight zone until Monday, when I withdraw on Fridays lol |

| Do you have Chase accounts at all? I get my Friday withdrawals on Saturday with them. Other banks it’s usually Sunday night when they process for Monday. |

Re: PayPal TOS Update - Transfers for verified people only!
I can provide an update here, not sure if you'll like it tho!
Had a second account with the "claim it" issue and tried to resolve it with various calls. Ended up with a manager at the end that could not provide a solution BUT spilled some bad news:
A) There is definitely an update coming (we know that): you will have to provide SS and DOB to have a running balance.
B) There will be a future update that will require SS to open a PP account.
Update #1 seems to be confirmed with the change of terms, I have my doubts on update #2 still, since they would loose a lot of customers. |

Re: PayPal TOS Update - Transfers for verified people only!
Can somebody with a proper english , give a call to paypal and just ask about the update? |

Re: PayPal TOS Update - Transfers for verified people only!
Then again - you have to take anything paypal Customer rep people say with a huge grain of salt since theyre a bunch of monkeys who are always kept in the dark. |
| phaz0rz | 03-07-2018 05:07 PM |
Re: PayPal TOS Update - Transfers for verified people only!
Yeah, but I'm afraid I can trust a manager who's saying the same thing as the UA update in different words.
So the question is can you still run a PP with just a bank account and have all funds transferred. The problem is, that's exactly what a merchant account does.
EDIT: and the other question is, will existing business accounts be alright using their EIN in place of SSN.. |
| slokor | 03-07-2018 05:09 PM |
Re: PayPal TOS Update - Transfers for verified people only!
Guess we will all find out soon enough.
Until then this is all speculation. |

Re: PayPal TOS Update - Transfers for verified people only!
Are Paypal doing this because of Adyen? It appears that is the plan. To tighten things up as divorce proceedings progress.
I have read the Policy Change again and it is clear as mud and ambiguous. As it is meant to be. It simply gives Paypal more power over its user base. From a legal point of view.
So Paypal want an SSN for anyone who has a US account and a running balance for purchases/transfers?
Good luck with that PP........ |
| phaz0rz | 03-07-2018 05:23 PM |
Re: PayPal TOS Update - Transfers for verified people only!
Paypal has to move into the traditional banking/merch account business if they want to stay relevant post-Adyen. Requiring bank-level verification at signup would be a step in that direction.
Slokor is right about this being all speculation. Honestly though I have a good bit of money floating around in unverified accounts ATM and I'd like to be prepared if this starts in 21 days. |

| People will quickly give it...as most of their users are buyers anyway, and you are being ask for an SSN almost anywhere, even for a prepaid card from payonner |

| If of course they actually DO have an SSN from a stealth POV. |

Re: PayPal TOS Update - Transfers for verified people only!
Do you have Chase accounts at all? I get my Friday withdrawals on Saturday with them. Other banks it’s usually Sunday night when they process for Monday.
That's because the Fed handles these transactions, and they don't process credits and debits Friday night and Saturday night. They come back to work close to midnight on Sunday.
Some banks count 'pending' funds as available, Chase may be one of those, but technically the money isn't there in your account until the Fed actually processes the transaction.
If you watch your bank account you'll see that during the weekdays and most of the weekend you accumulate 'pending' transactions. Overnight they are processed and become 'completed'.
will existing business accounts be alright using their EIN in place of SSN
I can't imagine why that would be an issue, and EIN is an acceptable standin for a SSN most places. The bigger question is will they require the whole SSN or just the 4 digits they ask for now... ?
you will have to provide SS and DOB to have a running balance
Which really means you will have to provide SSN & DOB, because they won't let you use the balance in any way otherwise. |

Re: PayPal TOS Update - Transfers for verified people only!
SSN & DOBS must also match a real name/address? |
