Hi, I just joined the forum. I have been selling on eBay since 2003 and have experienced many of the horror stories eBay and PayPal have thrown at honest sellers.
However, I would like to thank this forum for new techniques I have picked up on. Excellent work. Getting back on again takes a certain mindset, but once you get in that frame of mind thee is no need for anything but the stealth way.
I was just reading this thread and thought what a great service Secure Trust Bank are providing.  Seems too good to be true! I was looking at making an account with them for the £12.50 fee and using the details on PayPal to get past the "Verify Bank Stage". You add the bank account and then have a choice to use up the £650 wthdrawl limit and if you want this extended to another £650 you must wait a whole year.
But if you verify the bank account, PayPal send 2 small deposits and then you enter these you will get at least to the £1900 stage. I have not had a stealth PP bank verify in a while.
In the UK they force this direct debit set up to verify bank accounts. I understand this can happen with Secure Trust, but in the past this has been done with the general high street banks and works, but a few days later PP remove the bank account due to the names not matching up and that is a wasted bank account.
My quesion here is: do Secure Trust let this non-name matching problem go under the radar and the Secure Trust account will remain on the stealth PP, or do PP recognise the non-name matching themselves and remove the account?
Just concerned as it is not a free set up.
