Are any savers accounts still working on uk paypal ?
Has anyone in the last week tried using any savers account to add as a bank account
i am aware lloyds tsb , natwest and halifax didnt work anymore but i tried with my barclays which were cast iron workers suddenly arent accepted as " they dont accept electronic transfers "
if anyone has used in the past 7 days a tried and tested savers account please share the info

When selecting an account, try to look for one described as 'current', 'direct' or similar words. The main point is to be sure that any account will allow the Direct Debit mandate for those pesky paypal deposits
In 98% of the UK banks, the info is on their website. It is a matter of looking or if necessary speaking to their customer service.

Hi,
I have been using a natwest savers account for almost a year. After a suspension I found this forum and followed all the precious info and had no problems since. However I had not looked here for a while as had too many things on the go. I know this discussion is a little old but I am a bit concerned as supersella123 mentioned natwest does not work any longer. Does this mean that I will have problems eventually?
If anybody reads this, I would appreciate any advice offered.
Thanks in advance
Thank you so much getaroundebay for response. i was very concerned. Had not transferred money into bank account for a while and was afraid after reading this thread.
Thanks again
Whenever I add a saving account, it gets me verified, then 2 days later it gets withdrawn.
If it is still on, I wouldnt worry too much.
Although in an email from PayPal, I was told that they no longer accept savings accounts and it must be a current account (we all knew that anyway) but why don't they remove the savings account box on the DD instruction?
Will do. I might get a lloyds or hsbc. Which is better in your opinion?
Can I add it without causing my self problems to the current PP account?
Provided of course that I give allthe same info?
sorry for the 1001 questions.
thanks again for your help
lloyds are to be avoided if you are going full stealth... it has been noted repeatedly that they are sharing info (namely the name on your account) with paypal. If you are using your real name (or a close variation) then lloyds will be fine - I have a silver vantage account I use with Paypal (great for the interest on high balances).
I think HSBC have similar issues.
I recommend Abbey - you can open as many current accounts as you like with them. Their CS is pretty schocking though lol.

PS. I have never had any problems with Natwest either. Their step account is a good basic account and so is their current (though they don't pay interest and maestro is ****e).

Thank you for all that info captainjack1980!!
Will not ignore it. I know natwest are ok. But already have a step account iwth them, and at the moment I'm using their savers account that's why I was concerned as supersella123 mentioned that their savers accounts were working anymore. I've not had any problems but was concerned I might have soon...
I mentioned lloyds as I'd read somewhere on the forum that they were ok. Obviously not
thanks again
