3) Making payments: Money is automatically withdrawn from your bank account under the paypal name
4) Receiving payments: Money is deposited into your paypal account and it is up to you to then transfer into your bank account. (oh, i thought it goes STRAIGHT into your bank accounts obv not, well to transfer it from your paypal account to your bank account how long does this take??, also once say you have sold something.. is there a way for silly internet people to take the money back somehow because if there is then thats no good..)

Not doubting what fastspider said about getting your money out of them but I personally haven't had any problems. THIS statement though, "Never ever give your paypal information out to an email requesting it because paypal does not send out emails asking for your information and never will and scammers do." Is a DEFINATE!! Lucky enough for me that my bank was wondering why I was making purchases in Romania! They cancelled all transactions and issued me a new number in which I had to straighten up my paypal account with the new information so BEWARE!!

Have a good one!:jointsmile:
