Paypal and Payouts. I'm ready for payout but...

I went to our local bank to inquire about how I can use it as a receiving bank for my paypal account. I was surprised to know that they were not familiar with Paypal. Yes, I'm ready for payout but now I'm having second thoughts about using my bank. (I'm planning to buy a mouse with my very first, actual cash payout from the internet.) May I ask help from you - MyLotters about what you did? Any help, suggestions, comments would be most welcome.

Congratulations to you. I hope someday soon I will be able to have some digits in my paypal account too and then apply for an eon card. I too do not have a mouse right now and online shopping would be fun. This discussion helped me. :)

Wow, as long as Paypal and the internet have been around. you are with a Bank that has never heard of Paypal. That is weird. I thought everyone would have heard about that by now. Actually I would be checking to see when the small amounts do get deposited to your act. as for me, Paypal is one of the easiest things to use for getting my $$ here on paypal each month. If you do not get them, then I would be questioning my bank, Paypal or both. Wishing you the best.

I was surprised too, that they are not familiar with the procedure. It's actually a big bank. That's why I'm so surprised . But I was able to file my application anyway, but with UNION bank.

Giving you advice would be hard for me as I don't know any informations about your bank. I have a business account that I transfer my pay into.....so sorry...no suggestions here!

If your going to shop online then just leave the money in paypal. Shop with a site that takes paypal and pay from your account.

I've actually just starting using Paypal, so I don't have any idea as to what you are talking about. I'm sorry I can't help you any more with your problem. Do you have a credit or debit card attached to your bank account? If so, I can imagine you could use that to buy the mouse. I may be wrong, and if I am I'm sorry.

yes... paypal charges you to transfer funds from your paypal account to your bank..... up here in india too so unless you have like..... 1000 dollars or more... it is better to do some online purchasing... at good sites like e bay...or something else
