Balance differences, entropay banning and other questions.

[mynameis]

I've been using my entropay card to send a lot of money thru paypal (quite frequently) and i have noticed the difference between my actual balance and available balance is getting larger (could be paranoid though). Anybody experienced this and also does it take a while for larger deposit to sink into the entropay account?

Also using entropay to send many payments through paypal should not flag anything right? Please share your experiences.

entropay fees?

paypal fees?

currency conversion monetary loss?

I vary payment sources so rarely have the same method.

[rsot]

Sending many payments through paypal COULD flag - it really depends on where they are going...purchases? Should be ok....gambling? dangerous.

You need to provide a bit more details for opinion OP

[GreenBean]

More info would help for sure.

[mynameis]

I send about 3 payments of about £20-25 a day or maybe every 2 days. Nothing too large, but i mean every 3 days i deposit 100 quid.

I send money as a gift to family and friends on Paypal. Havent really used my stealth for ebay selling just yet.

Would it be better to just fund my stealth paypal through a bank account for this? I mean my current method means a lot of fees for paypal and entropay.

Sending money as gift to friends and family for simple I.O.U stuff.

Vary your activity.

Avoid a lot of 'personal/family transactions'.

paypal does not believe in I.O.Us

How old is the account?

[mynameis]

Account is about 1 month old,

Why should sending money for personal reasons flag anything? By the way each time i send i am funding through my entropay card as opposed to my bank account.

What do you suggest about depositing the money through a bank account instead then sending these payments.

[GreenBean]

paypal has a nasty tendency to think that these transactions are sinister.....

I mentioned you should vary payments.

Account is still new. paypal need to perceive you are no risk.

[mynameis]

Funding stealth paypal through bank account should be ok right, how many of these have you done per stealth account you own?

Also, why is gambling payments through entropay a risk, i thought that's what entropay was primarily used for most of the time?

[GreenBean]

I never mentioned gambling and entropay.

[mynameis]

You mentioned that you've used bank accounts to fund stealth Paypal accounts in the past. Any of those accounts flagged for any reason?

The gambling question was intended for rsot from his previous post.

[GreenBean]

I have relatively few issues with paypal.

Strange as it may seem, I am sensible with paypal.



I love paypal

That's good to hear your underlying warm relationship with PayPal however for the majority of us, Paypal is very hostile.

So has your Paypal ever been limited due to making a bank deposit?

[mynameis]

Has anyone here actually been suspended or banned by Entropay? If so, what exactly caused the ban?

[GreenBean]

Suspensions have occurred where users have broken the T&C of entropay.


At one point US based customers were being banned. Much of that was because of online gambling

Is there a reason for these questions?

If you use this service correctly, you have few issues.

The thing is, im trying to figure out if i am using entropay correctly. I mean i send numerous payments through Paypal which are funded by Entropay. I do not use entropay for gambling reasons. Do you reckon that is perceived as a risk for entropay? I should think not. However do let me know what you think.

It's pretty obvious you are using Entropay and/or PayPal for reasons that breach their terms & conditions, so it doesn't matter what other people do or don't do, you are causing problems by the way you are using it.

3 x £25 daily for IOU to friends and family is suspicious and I can't think of a single reason why you would need to do that?

Unless you are honest on here then no-one will be able to full understand the problem and help you.

I cant see how sending payments via Paypal funded through and Entropay card would breach their ToS, what exactly is entropay meant to be used for in that case then?

I am being honest, as always!

[Geegee83]

Has anything happened to your account? or are you just being cautious?

I presumed (wrongly perhaps) that you were here as it's had some sort of problem?

Just being cautious that's all. Nothing has happened to any of my accounts.

Never assume, you know what they say.
