Opening new bank today.. but

[JDixon]

Hi guys going to go open a new bank account with virgin today, for a new eBay/PayPal adventure.

Just a few questions if you don't mind.

- Since my bank account is going to be in my name how should i go about eBay/PayPal name address? Will it matter if i join with ⊗⊗⊗⊗ info and my bank account says different?

- Once i hit the 1.9k limit on PayPal what info do they ask me for? Proof of address?? Utility bills etc? Is it hard to get hold of some ⊗⊗⊗⊗ ones?

Thanks in advance, much appreciate the help! The feeling i get when i lose a eBay account with thousands of pounds of stock waiting to be sold is sickening!!

opening bank should obviously always be in your legit info, pp dont see the name you have on your bank account so you are cool. You just have to see if the account with virgin allows mismatched names. Search the forums to see if there's any info. I dont know about virgin bank account.

once you hit the £1900 yes they will ask you for proof of the stuff. You just supply it to them

Dont worry everyone on the forums has been in your place. thats why we are here to work with each other

good luck mate

Thanks for the feedback, good to hear they cant check your bank info!!

What aout the verification letter eBay send out for requesting higher limits, any help on how i would do that with stealth info!

cheers taj!

if you have no access to the address then make sure you dont request the letter, if u do have access then go ahead otherwise just keep maxing out your limits and within 90 days your limits should increase.

Or make sure you have an accessible address for stealth accounts.

Where's the plan for returns of items? that needs to be covered.

1. Make sure your bank account is fresh and in your real name (registered)

2. Do NOT change the name of your pp account - when you enter the bank details, keep the name as the STEALTH name.

3. MAKE sure your bank accepts deposits in stealth names. Check with forum posts here

All the best

I have been doing returns emailing them direct and getting them to deliver to my "supplier" which is me at my banned address.

E/B P/P can't monitor my gmail. Or over the phone.

Be careful if you have a case and they add tracking for the return though
