I would follow JamesNorth's advice. A debit card requires your real name/real address/ real ssn....in other words...your REAL information

If you are going stealth (which is probably why you're on this site), then why would you go that route and get shut down in a day? Your option is a VCC, which will pass the AVS verification.

If the details on ur debit card do not match your stealth name address than you cannot use it, that simple

the debit card would fail the AVS system.

The address on the card differs from the stealth address.

We suggest not using these cards to make the process of creating stealth accounts easier to do.

In the past days, there have been posts explaining the reasons. Here are the threads below

Are you trying to verify the PP or confirm the PP?

amysol · #7 08-04-2013

I have one bank account that is attached to a stealth address that is with a bank where the names do not have to match (suntrust). So for one stealth account I was going to use the bank accout and the debit card. I don't think my ssn is associated with the debit card. Paypal can't just go around asking banks for the SS# of any debit card number they get their hands on.

Is it safe to use the debit card if the address is stealth?

The Debit Card address must match the Stealth address or Paypal will decline the card. Best to use a Gift Card or VCC.

No, it is not recommended to do what you are thinking of doing.

The address difference is the issue.
All the posts in this thread explain the reasons.

If you are trying to find a way to get the money then withdraw to that bank and use that debit card to use at the ATM etc.

Use one of the links to add the cc, but do not use the debit card for pp, only for withdraw once the money hits your bank.

amysol · #11 08-05-2013

Ok, i hear you all saying don't use the debit card with pp...but I don't understand why. Sure, if the address doesn't match the stealth account address don't use it...but when it does match, please explain why we don't still use it in this instance. It's one thing to just "do as your're told" but I also want to make sure that I am understanding what I am doing. :-)

Ok so you understand a debit card requires your real information and you want to use your REAL information w/ Paypal...that's fine, totally your decision.

BUT you just posted that you don't trust Paypal. So WHY give them your real information? You're either operating stealth or not...you can't do it halfway.

Also keep this in mind when you encounter issues such as chargebacks or claims. If they don't get paid, guess where Paypal goes to collect funds. And god forbid if it gets turned over to collections...it will show up on your credit report.

But to each their own...

But the only real information on the debit card is my real name, and it doesn't matter what name you put when verifying a credit card, they don't check names to match on the card and on the paypal account. Only zip codes.

Sandy D · #14 08-05-2013

Do you think all of this people would waste their time answering you if they did not think it would help you?

Why even use your debit card? So many reasons not to and so many ways around not having to use it.

Tell us why you want to use it so badly when you do not need to at all.

I have 100s of accounts and only use a debit card on my real account and dont need to and wont use it on a stealth account.

Why use it when you do not need to?

Most everyone here understands why give them real info or a chance to get your real info when you do not have to?

I surely dont want someone buying from me on a stealth and having access to my personal debit card number. Especially paypal.

But you asked this question earlier this morning.

http://www.aspkin.com/forums/credit-...verify-pp.html

You need to read more in the areas you seem to not understand.

There are MANY post and threads about the questions you asked in two different threads today.

Use the search button and type in Vanilla Visa and you will see lots of answers to all of your questions.

If you logically think this, why dont you just go with your choice and report back?

Lot of advice has been given

amysol · #17 08-06-2013

No reason has been given to not use a debit card with a stealth address. Why would I want to use it? Hmmmm, let's see. Because it's free, it's easy, and it's a step that is already completed from opening the bank account.

My questions were....

1. Why not use a debit card?

2. What form of payment is best to use when opening an ebay account? Bank account or cc/prepaid?

Those two questions look totally different to me, but that's just my opinion.

So this makes the most sense of all on the topic.....

This horse has been beaten enough.

As rsot put it, you can feel free to use your method and report back to us at a later date on your progress. Best of luck,

rsot · #20 08-06-2013

Simple thing is to use cc/prepaid card and follow the normal uses by many stealthers here /done

Sandy D · #21 08-06-2013

This poster has asked for advice and members have responded who have the skills and knowledge to explain it clearly yet the poster feels we need further explanation.

This poster then asked in another thread how to use a VCC so he-she then understands there is no need to use a personal debit card.

We are beating this horse to death with us trying to help this poster who has several threads asking pretty much the same questions.

I also agree the poster needs to try her own methods and report back to use her findings.

My last 0.02 is why would you ever need to use your own debit card when there are so many alternatives.

Fees? If 4.95 activation fees to use a vcc are an issue and cannot be handled as part of a business expense or 8.00 to buy one from our fellow members cannot be absorbed then I suggest you need a higher profit item or something.

You do not need to start multiple threads about the same issues. Three of your threads are basically the same thing and could have been asked in this one thread.
