VCC - Minimum amount needed?

[RetroRedneck]

Hi.

Re eBay/Paypal UK and a VCC; what's the minimum amount I should have loaded on the VCC for verification purposes? Can I get away with a couple of quid?

Thanks.

VCC is to confirm, not to verify a PayPal. A bank account is used to verify PayPal. Very different things so need to be careful with the terminology.

I always go with £5 on the VCC for confirming. If you are using entropay you can just transfer the unused funds afterwards.

Thanks. The great thing with Entropay is that you can transfer a min of £1 to a new card - from another one that's already topped up (instead of the usual £5 via bank/cc).
