like:
On , we attempted to transfer from your bank account, ending in 4360. This transfer was returned by your bank on 22 Jan. 2009 for the reason below:

This is an invalid bank account number.

As a result, this bank account has been disabled from your PayPal account. Please contact your bank for more information or add a new bank account. Please do not contact PayPal because this is entirely an issue between the account holder and their bank.

Yours sincerely,
PayPal

Did you recently try to withdraw money from that bank account and it didnt have sufficient funds to cover the amount? If so thats why. Are you using a bank account that Paypal deems 'suspicious'...if so, probably why.

you can't use those internet saving accounts with paypal anymore

you'll have to go down to the bank and open a normal account and it will work

**aspkin** · #8 02-10-2009

You can, just some like ING give you more problems then others.

But WaMu works fine, E*Trade works fine, etc.

ebay, maybe YOU have to do that.

B4 you you come back at me with an argument let me say their usage has been tested & accounts for paypal have been created in this way.There are internet savings accounts or online bank accounts in the UK that can still be used with paypal. These allow the Direct Debit mandate. This means that the paypal deposits will be accepted and the bank account will stay in good standing. And yes, you can go into the local branch & create an account there.

Any user from the UK has to determine correctly which particular bank account to use. It is not rocket science. If this is too hard for anyone pm me for details

i'm not gonna argument with you about this
but sooner or later your gonna get a email from paypal saying some bullsh*t about invalid account number
and you'll have to put a proper bank account on.
even on the accounts which are working fine

My paypal account was set up am i right in saying you use your phoney name but use a bank account in your own name. When it comes to the paypal page for adding bank account. Say i have changed my name to billy bob but my real name is bobby boy when i go to put the bank details on the name part is already filled in as billy bob, do i just fill in the bank name branch location and number even though the names do not match. Is this ok as i did this but my bank account was disabled from my paypal also, its rbs savings account i used. Any advice Please

GreenBean · #13 02-12-2009

Bob, that is what you do. BUT the RBS savings account does not have the Direct Debit mandate. You can bypass this by using a RBS Key account. Since you are already a customer you can do that online.

Kid,we have been going back & forth over this for months. Please tell me how soon after the paypal account was made, did you get the notice of 'invalid account number' because you also say 'even on the accounts which are working fine'. Which banks & which accounts? I am not getting any such notices. The accounts have been made at the branch AND online. Each and every bank account I use supports the Debit Debit mandate. Would like to clarify this once and for all.

On one of my 3 stealth accounts I tried to link a Abbey Savers account and that got rejected like the OP's did, so I tried a HSBC account and this account sailed through & got credit within 3 days
