I used TD bank with paypal. I didn't have any problems WITH PAYPAL. I did ask them ahead of time if it was OK that the deposits were under a different name and they said yes.
I had another non paypal issue with them however... I opened an account with then in New Jersey while I was living there for 6 months. I specifically gave them my different primary address which was in a different state.
I used my savings account for paypal of course. It was the free savings that was recommended to me as being the easiest option.
So, I get 400$ in it and don't use it much again (limited). 6 months later, I am leaving Jersey extremely late for my flight. I don't withdraw the money, shouldn't be a problem, right?
Get back home, find out that even though I electronically deposited 400$, the type of account they gave me pretty much does NOT work with online banking!
And... my closest TD bank was now 3 states away!
On the phone with customer support I discovered that:
- I could NOT withdraw or transfer the money to my checking in my state.
- If I overdrew on my checking account or debit card, they would NOT withdraw from the savings account.
- Basically there was NO way to get the money in my state.
I thought I was screwed!
Then they mailed me a check when the account closed eventually... which they did NOT tell me they were going to do. And they mailed it to New Jersey! >:(
Luckily I was able to get the check after a while.
So, a little off the subject but thats my TD bank story.
