Adding funds to PayPal UK to refund buyer

[DigiRake]

Hey guys, I owe someone a refund of £50 but I only have £15 in my PayPal account, how can I get funds to my PayPal quick and easy without using my bank account to disclose my name. I heard of the gift card option, is this correct? If so, which company should I use and how should I go about doing it?

Any information would be much appreciated.

Only way is to either sell a few things or have another PayPal account to send you the rest of the money you need to cover for the full refund.

I think cards can only be used for purchases or to pay fee's. Look like you gonna need a quick sale of some sort. Sending money from another PP account 'may' cause an unnecessary link, so only do this if you really have to. You could also offer the buyer a cash refund, if you run out of time and options.

Thanks guys, is their any other options as at a last resort I'll use sending money from a friends PayPal but it's just a little risky that's all.

Tricky situation.

Do not send money from another p/p account, dangerous move to link them.

You could risk letting p/p take it from your bank account, if this has never happened before you may be ok one time but keep the account nice and clean afterwards to avoid any manual reviews.

Best bet is to try and sell some stuff quickly

Best advice for future is always leave enough funds in your p/p account to cover e/b fees and two or three refunds. Saves a lot of hassle.

Alot of bank don't even disclose your first name in the u.k when money is been transfered.
