HELP with PP!!!

Damn, I never trusted Heypal from the get go. Never understood why they needed a checking account number for "validation". AQ checking account has no bearing on a Heypal account, so they must use it for some unknown reason.

I still do business the old fashioned way, cash, check, MO.... If I can't keep my rep clean enough for others to trust me then I shouldn't be doing businees with others.

I hope you can resolve something with them to get your business going. Ebayyy and HeyPal have gotten way to big IMO.

pp is very useful for international transfers, especially to other people and you want to use your credit card. For example, Wanger is my forwarder for the cigars I buy in the States, I order cigars myself, pay for them with my CC but I can't pay Wanger the postage with my cc, I use pp for that. Cash, check, MO is way too much hassle for that.

I would reconsider having your account tied into your checking. Having funds tied up for several months can be a serious pain. You might consider changing it to a CC. The only issue is that cash payments to you show as credits on your CC. If you need the cash, have the person send a check or MO. If you band with WAMU, cashiers checks and wire transfers are free.

Why would funds be tied up for several months?

As I stated, I had no problems withdrawing from the PP account. I had my CC's registered with my original account, but you cannot use the same CC or bank account # on more than one PP account

If there are funds in your account when the lock it, there will be a problem. Has happened to more than one person at our old home.
