Adding Paypal Bank Account Instantly
 

Is this safe? I use USAA and have many stealth account's running from different USAA bank accounts. Paypal allows me to do an instant confirm option.

USAA bank has been working well for few ppl - have you done microdeposits in the past? Why not just stick to that then?

Yea I did the microdeposits, its been working great for a few years for me. Just found out you can withdraw immediately to an unconfirmed bank account thats why I wanted to do instant confirm.

Ive never had an issue with instant confirm.
I actually prefer it.
But different people will have differing opinions.

I tried the instant confirm, and I guess since I have so many bank accounts with USAA it didn't recognize which account it needed to confirm and gave me a standard error message request could not be completed at this time.

one time I tried to instant confirm and it told me the name does not match on the account. THAT WAS A FIRST.

but my opinion micro deposits may be safer because they cannot see a name.


what do you mean by withdraw instantly????

clarify please

I added the new bank account and used microdeposits to confirm it and before it was confirmed I withdrew the PayPal balance to it.

Sometimes on the microdeposits they deposit the small amounts into your bank account then withdraw them back out. They would be able to see your name then, right? Or is that considered like a "cancellation" and they wouldn't see your name when the money is withdraw out?

Also, yeah the microdeposits option is the better option. Sometimes the microdeposits are are deposited within 24 hours.
