I don't really see any advantage in doing that to be honest.

They do it to confirm that it is really your account and that you have access to it.

I prefer the instant verification method myself.
When they send those 2 small deposits they also pull them out immediately which shows up as funds coming out of your account and back to paypal - this could leak the name of the account holder. Doing it via instant verification bypasses this issue.

The purpose of the two payments is for paypal to VERIFY the bank account is yours.
For the UK, ebay actually wants all selling accounts to have paypal as a payment method.
A savings account does not allow the direct debit mandate to work. Avoid this and consider a basic account instead.
Welcome and keep the questions coming as you master stealth. |

Add the bank.
When it prompts you to follow through with direct debit mandate, just click away from the screen.
Bank should be added, just wont be fully functional (wouldn't be anyway considering it's savings account).

Thanks all . i tried a savings account last night and ignored the direct debit part. The number came through and accepted by paypal today. So now i guess i can withdraw money up to £1900 or ther abouts.
Will not having direct debit set up hinder me with paypal in any way? Will i, in time be able to lift the withdraw limit ?
i added a saver last night and ignored the direct debit. this morning i input the number on paypal and went in ok.
Will i be hindered in nay way by not having the direct debit ?
Will I, in time be able to lift the limits ?

Not totally correct @Play
Savings accounts can be used to withdraw funds without any problem, but the DD will always fail to set up. You can still withdraw to the savings accounts though without any issue.

Most of my stealth accounts are connected to savings accounts from all major banks, and they work perfectly fine. Sorry for mistake.

A few years ago I know that there were a few about, but I not come across any recently that will not kick back the DD mandate back after a few days
In the grand scheme of things it wont matter too much though

Always easier to use a basic account.
Saves paypal snoping around in your paypal.

Some banks lets you have several basic accounts, some only let you have one. Savers can be a way around that if you need extra accounts.

I think you may mean the receiving limits
Yes that can be removed even though a savings account has been used.

Work out what a bank can do for you.
UK banks want my fees. I want my choice of accounts.
