Paypal Tip...

[j3bus2k3 5,000+ posts]

I see A LOT of people saying (about payment) that it takes time for their funds to be trasnfered from their bank account to their paypal account. Maybe some of you know this, maybe not, but you dont need to have money in your paypal account at all; just the bank account tied to the paypal account. When you want to send funds, send them like normal by clicking the send money tab, and entering the info; DONT transfer funds into your paypal account prior to sending. By doing it this way, theres no 3-5 day waiting period waiting for the funds to hit your paypal account. I've dont it countless times simply because I dont trust paypal enough to let money sit in there, or let them handle my money. I also have a business account so it may just be a feature with the upgraded status but nevertheless, give it a try and save some payment time...

yup, or if you put a credit card on file, you can put your debit card on there and have it automatically take it off there.

Yes, Give a shady company direct access to your checking account. That is the best idea ive heard in a long time.

I've never had a problem with em either...that doesn't mean I don't get nervous when I have a thousand dollar deal that goes through them //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

IIRC, if you do so...they can take funds from your bank account.... If some scammer were to file and win a non legit complaint.

I definitly agree with you there, I'm always nervous when I place big *** orders through them but I've been ****ed over more by my local bank than I have by paypal.

never had problem with paypal, rather use that than money transfer or something where I have no chance of geting my money back if I get scammed
