I can't be any more clear.

It's not a good idea to ask your customer to open a case when you can't refund them from the paypal balance unless the account is limited.

If you messaged your customer saying you can't get give a refund, and they opened a dispute, the funds should be taken from the held balance. If it's not limited, awesome. Issue the refund and move on.

In the first place... You're talking about 11 GBP? You don't have that in the bank account? Is it a VBA?

You cant send money from my bank account to the customer because it will disclose my real information!

Plus I didn't think VBA's were a UK thing...

Your right on both counts.

In the USA, with a lot of banks, it's just drafting an echeck, and doesn't disclose the information on the bank account. If they do, paypal doesn't care. In my experience. I do it all the time with no issues.
Perhaps that's different with the UK.

Getting bank accounts in the UK is a lot harder from the USA. VBA's aren't as common, but you can get them.

If they opened the dispute, close it, and you should be fine. I'm glad it's not limited.

Just as a fundamental point, when you send funds from your bank to pp a receipt is generated. This financial receipt WILL show the true account holder's name.

I wont say 100% PP doesnt care...they can see and take action if manual review happens. So just be careful on that assumption.

This is true for all banks.

This is not a personal attack at all - just explaining the transaction info given by bank to PP.

Good to know.

Just another point to clarify, there are no UK vba's

Can you add a USA bank to a UK paypal? You can add a USA bank to any country. Oh, but maybe it doesn't verify it?

Yes you can, to withdraw only. Verification works with local banks only.

Are they gonna ask us to add an SSN and what not..??

No. It's just like adding a UK bank.

USA bank is the one verification bank tool that works on ALL pp platforms.... uk, canada, etc...wherever bank verification is possible

Nonsense. Are you high rsot?

From what I understand, you can add a USA bank to any country paypal, but it may not always verify it.

I dont think you meant to post this because I dont believe this is correct.

Not high but I will agree there was a misleading typo here:

What I meant to say that when you can withdraw to bank from a pp account, you can always use a US bank account. Verification is not always possible.

Take UK for example - yes you need to VERIFY it with UK bank but once verified...you can use a US bank account to withdraw.

Fundamental typo error - sorry for confusion.

Suppose I can say goodbye to this account in question as the money was refunded through an eCheque process which will reveal my REAL NAME from the bank!

Anyway to stop this?

Was my fault was a late night and I eventually refunded because they opened a case but it went through eBay! Luckily enough was a brand new account

Not a given you will lose the account if it's the only time this has happened.

This is normally picked up on a manual review so as long as you keep the account clean for a good while it may well be ok.

It happened on one of my accounts a while back but went on to raise limits and submit docs and all was ok, it's now a TRS e/b & p/p combo account and doing very nicely

if you did e-cheque wait and see, you are probably ok....low odds

how stealth is your stealth name ?

you might be able to add your card.

P.m me the answer
