I've been running a fully verified PP (limits removed) now for over three months and all was well. I made a few withdrawals - nothing out of the ordinary the other day on only one of the three cleared. I received these emails from PP:
----------------
EMAIL 1
----------------
Dear XXXX,
You recently tried to transfer funds from your METRO BANK bank account.
METRO BANK declined your funds transfer.
Because METRO BANK declined your transfer, this transaction has been cancelled.
Yours sincerely,
PayPal

...and shortly afterwards:
----------------
EMAIL 2
----------------
Dear xxxx,
An electronic funds transfer from your PayPal account to your bank account was declined by the bank. Typically, this happens for one of the following reasons:
The bank account number does not exist or is otherwise invalid
The bank branch listed in your PayPal account does not exist
The bank does not accept electronic withdrawals
Other reasons not specified by the bank
Before attempting another withdrawal to your bank account, please check that you have the correct information from your bank, and update it in your PayPal profile if necessary.
Yours sincerely,
PayPal

...and finally:

EMAIL 3:
----------------
Dear xxxx,
On 31 Jan 2016, we tried to transfer £29.77 GBP from your bank account ending in 2567to fund your payment to
UK-eBay-EOM-Fees@ebay.com. This failed because your bank account is closed. As a result, we’ve disabled that bank account from use on your PayPal account. For further transaction details, please log in to your PayPal account at xxx and click ‘History’.
"How to make future payments with PayPal"
If you don’t already have another bank account or card linked to your PayPal account, you need to link one to fund your future payments. To do this, please log in to your PayPal account at xxxx , go to ‘Profile’ and then click ‘My Money’.
Yours sincerely,
PayPal

Now my bank account is not closed - It's absolutely fine. I logged in to it and the first of four withdrawals had cleared. I can only assume that METROBANK BASIC CASH accounts no longer like mis-matched names. (Thoughts?)
I then went ahead and added my Halifax Easycash (never used with PP before btw) and I am currently waiting for the deposit. It has now been two days - should I not have received to £0.01 into the account by now? Also, when i try and submit the Direct Debit mandate i get a screen that says:
----------------
We're sorry. We're not able to process your request. Please try again later
----------------
Is this because I haven't yet confirmed the account via their deposit code or should i be worried?
What are everyone's thoughts on this?
Am i just being impatient or is something up?
Thanks
