Attn: Newbies: >> Bank Account Opening--checking/savings!!
 

HI Folks:
Ive now counted 11 pms in the last week about this topic--Please
take note:

1.) ANY AND ALL BANK ACCOUNTS-- Checking/Savings Accounts-- MUST BE IN YOUR REAL NAME! PERIOD.

>> With the PATRIOT ACT--You MUST USE YOUR REAL NAME!

>> There is NO EXCEPTIONS TO THIS. PERIOD.

>>> The BANK Acct "NAMES" ARE NOT SEEN by Ebay or Paypal. Period, (In the USA).

ONCE AGAIN-- If you try to open a bank acct in "Another name"--it will FAIL...

The Account Name--MUST MATCH your i.d. / your address as on file with the Credit Bureau, etc..

> Some banks run a Hard pull Credit report-- Some do a soft pull...
Others just check the 'Check Systems" verification..

>> "IF" you cannot pass the checksystems--then have your MOM, Uncle, Aunt open the acct for you-- AGAIN--in the USA--the Name on the account does NOT matter for now....
>> SO-- Go ahead and try this step again-- this time-- go ahead and open the Checking or savings accts or BOTH--at your local bank---(or online if you do not drive)--

NOW-- after its opened-- USE IT---it works!

FURTHER examples:

a.) Sally JOnes lives at 123 main street NY NY 10012-- she was Suspended,
b.) Sally had a checking acct at Bank of America --acct# 123-456-789--it was NEVER used on ebay or paypal..

c.) Sally Jones , (now Sally Smith--moved-she now lives at 456 Copper st NY NY 10012--

d.) Can she use that OLD Bank acct---YES
**********************************************

NOW-- Lets say Sally JONES ALREADY used that acct with either ebay or Paypal --
WHAT CAN SHE DO NOW?

a.) She can go to Bank of America-- open ANOTHER checking acct-- Or another savings acct--AND REGISTER with BOA AT:
123 Main St NY NY 10012-- + STILL USE IT FOR HER
MARRIED NAME---Sally Smith at COPPER STEET--it will STILL WORK!!!
______________________________________

NOW- what if Sally SMITH--never cleared her ip addy??
>> WELL__
Then, Sally JOnes can go to First National Bank, open a NEW acct--
and ALLOW her NEW Married Name--

Susan Sally THOMAS to use it---it works!
-----------------------------------------

Well- What if Sally Jones lost her i.d. or her Ex-husband wrote bad checks last month + the banks will nto allow her to open another acct?

WELL__ then Sallys aunt MABLE, MABLE JONES will open the acct-- and allow SUSAN S Thomas to use it--IT WORKS!
>> KEY: The BANK ACCT MUST BE IN THE REAL NAME--WITH THE LEGIT I.D.
OPEN a checking or Savings acct

The same Applies for the UK & Australia
 

FYI any users in either the UK or Australia must also make sure that bank
accounts are in legal names. Make sure that you have enough identification
to get an account opened.
In the UK, in some instances, it will be better to go into a bank, and make the
account there. ONE point is to make sure to open an account that will allow
DirectDebit: if no DD no paypal. It is up to YOU to make sure that you set up the correct bank account. Do not be scared to phone the customer service of a bank for assistance.
In Australia, unless you are an existing bank customer, you also need to go to
a bank. There are accounts that can be set up online BUT the bank still wants
to see your documents.

by the way greenbean where you from?

If I told you, then I would have to kill you.

Yes, please I hope the newbies are reading this.

Thanks ebayhateluv

So as I understand this, open an account with a real name and address... then change the address after the account is updated?

Ebay can see the address on the bank account?

Oh man... sigh..

1) What type of account are you talking about?

2) Ebay or paypal cannot see the name or address of bank account. Only thing they see is the name of the bank and account and routing number.

:) Patience, aspkin, patience.

If the name and address can't be seen by ebay/paypal then why was it necessary in the first post for "Sally" to use the various combination of names of her married/maiden, etc. names and the different addresses? Perhaps I'm not reading the post carefully enough, but I'm trying people, I'm really trying here.
I got my new PayPal account up today, new ebay id, and opened a new checking account at my bank, same name, different account numbers. So it will be okay to link up that new checking account with my new PayPal account, so I can transfer funds from PayPal into the new account so I can access the funds. I'm not going to be able to get a debit card for the new PP account, since that PP account isn't in my name, so I'm assuming this will be the only way I can get to those funds?

I WAS going to start a new thread and ask... that quetion about , well you know names, JUST to be a smarty pants,but I was afraid someone might.... uuuuuuh ... welll, come get me.
I know, I am bad, bad, bad, I guess I have had a boring day, or as someone told me omce.... "you are sure easily entertained!!!" SIGH!!.

Just make sure you have same names on paypal and ebay.
Can be anything, but people like to use similar names I.E if my name was Alex Smith i would use

Alexa Smithers

=]] Hope this helps, name's dont matter as long as u have same name on ebay and paypal!!

HI:
Just to Clarify---

a.) I use so many "extra Precautions"--as I am a really Paranoid person..
(I had a stalker last year--that ended up being the man who got be booted from ebay)--
SO--I go overboard on CAUTION..

>> As for the address--I use the variation for the Paypal credit card addition.ONLY>
(Ive done this--Before i got good at using the Virtual ccs.. and registering them..)
__BUT--ASpkin has made it MUCH EASIER for us-- using say SIMON..
For "BANK ACCOUNTS ONLY"--i.e. checking or savings--there is no change.
>> ACTUALLY--My ccnow acct deposits into my bank in City "A", under my LLC, "B",
While the Actual REAL checking acct, belongs to one my llcs, "C":, residing in City "D"..
--SO IT IS VERY DIFFERENT--BUT--they have not said anything,,

Green Bean.....Will you torture me first....

Hits head on keyboard. Enjoys the pain and does not stop. I wonder if the forum should have IQ tests as well as reading tests?

Hits head on keyboard....ah the sweet pain.
ROUTING NUMBER & ACCOUNT NUMBERS ARE ALL THAT PAYPAL SEES... trust us.:rolleyes:

lol GreenBean. Maybe you should calm down. Or take a pill =D

Ok, so I'm registered and verifying my bank account but it says:

Please make sure that the name associated with your PayPal account exactly matches the name on your bank account statement. Otherwise, transfers to and from your PayPal account will not go through, and a return fee will be charged.

It says this at the withdrawal page. Is this not true then? The name in Paypal is ⊗⊗⊗⊗ and the name on my bank account is real of course.

Help! Zanax quickly.:eek:

uuuuuuuh, My ex-husband cannot get his money out of PayPal because he uses the nickname of Pete on PayPal & his real name, which is on the bank account, is Neil David.
Everything else the same, address, telephone number , city , state, ect. So he faxed then EVERYTHING they asked him to.... twice.. and he STILL cannot withdraw his money. all $250.00!!!!! And he has been a member for 6 years with a TON of money going thru.... sells and buys cars. Now what the heck is THIS all about????

$250 that's not a great deal?

Hello,
I'm new to the forum, and my english is (I assume) BAD. I'm from Canada (Quebec) and I have been banned from ebay since few days.
I'm just wondering if Paypal do not verify Name and adresses of Bank Acc owner in the USA only, or it's the same thing in Canada too?
I tried to find the information in the forum but i didn't find anything.
Many thanks for your help

Just_banned,

It tends to be that all they check is the account number is correct.

I actually called my bank and told them I made a Paypal account and accidentally spelt my name wrong lol and I was worried I wouldn't get the money.

Their reply? Don't worry, we only use the Account number to send you money.

Just the answer I wanted to hear. :-)

And I am not in the USA.
