Hello guys I just purchased a greendot to pay my ebay fees. Do I use the stealth info to register the card and what about the social security number do i use my real number?
The complete step-by-step guide to get back to selling today!
You need to use a real social security number and your real address on file as they check to see if its real. Don't lie about any prepaid card or you could be banned from the service. Stealth is only for ebay/paypal/amazon/and other websites.
Yeah u cant not use a greendot card w/o a ssn and they check the ssn's now so it has to match the info u used to make the account. Back when greendot first launched i was able to open one under a made up ssn cause they didnt check but now they do for sure. The card fianly got shut down many months later they radmon checked i guess and caught onto it but i used the heck out of it in the meantime :D
So in other words if i wanna use greendot with a stealth account, I open the greendot with my real info and social and use it to pay me fees on ebay and this wont link me to my old suspended accounts?
Only thing is u can only load $250 max on a paypal then u will need a ssn. Only way i see u could add the card to Pp as a bank then put funds from the card to your pp then use them to pay the fee's
Ok but i thought the idea was to not pay my fees with paypal if i add the money to paypal and pay want that be paying my fees with paypal which is not recommended by some?
I dont bout now but use to u could even pay by money order which to me that would be the way to go cause u can use the return address on the envople as ur stealth address and even the stealth name on the money order.
Any prepaid card pp accepts. Vanilla Visa is one. I use pp all the time to pay my fees. I know it's not recommended by a couple but it works fine for me.
Dam looks like i just need to pay with paypal i have the money in there i just didnt want them to link them like some recommended not to, they have it set up to deduct the fees automatically, should i change that. Trying to pay fees outside of paypal seems to be too much of a hassle.
i got mine to pay auto cause it sucks when u forget to pay or something happens and u dont pay then they lock your account till fees are paid then even after u pay it takes a few days to get reinstated where u can sell again
I read that so why do people still pay with their paypals is the things mentioned in that post not true or something or do some people just take the risks involved?
Like Lakeman, I will run with something if it is not broken.
The link above is an awesome piece of info but it does not apply to a few of us who have had a great run without any problems.
A newbie should consider the link and what it states for sure because all it would take is one mistake and something go wrong.
If I were you I would pay it with pp this time and if you decide to not do it change the auto pay to a greendot or something when you have more time. Just make sure you take off pp as the form of payment.
You dont have much choice if you are out of time. You do not want to miss paying your fees.
