I have a debit card which I have connected with my paypal account so I am verified. So far I have not had any problems.

I am verified with paypal and have had no problems with security. I don't think they would be partnered with ebay if they did. I like paypal alot, it seem that most online businesses accept their payment because it is so safe. Paypal also lets you do echecks which takes longer to clear, but they must be really safe to accept so many forms of payment.

I forgot to add that I have two bank accounts cleared with them, and the transactions that way are great. Paypal will deposit 2 small amounts of money in your account and you will have to verify those two amounts with them in order to have the account verified. So you get a few cents in your account from them, nice bonus. When I verified my second account they took 1.95 from my account and I had to verify the number for that transaction, and then they put the 1.95 in my paypal account. So I think they take some really good security measures.

Okay, I have a special way to get ALOT of money on paypal. But I don't have mine verified and I need someone to verify it for me, because I don't have a bank account.

My paypal account is verified. I remember, I had to pay some charges for getting it verified it. I think once you verify it, it becomes safer. I think, if yours is not verified so far, you better get it verified.

I have the same problem too. I linked my bank account to my paypal account some months ago but it still shows my paypal account as unverified. I haven't got any notification from paypal either talking about the Pin code. I haven't got my money credit yet and perhaps this is one of the main reason. I have got my credit card now and i can link the credit card to my paypal account to get it verified but it says it will debit 1.95$ from my credit card and will refund it later. So i am quite confused as to what i should do? I don't know y my account is still unverified though i have linked my bank account to it. I am hoping to get my paypal money credit asap so do let me know if u find out some solution. Either way, if it would be easy to use my credit card?

I do not think that showing them the Credit Card may be a danger because it is an international Money transacting Agency duly approved by some international authority. I do not have a credit card such as my account has not been verified. I think You are very senior at my lot. Please advise me whether the pay pal will accept from my lot my earning pay out or will ask me to get verified first.Please guide me and comment.

Paypal is a very reputable site. The only danger you will encounter with verifying through your Credit card is if you make a purchase that requires a recurring subscription, and you forget about it. Then they will take that balance from your credit card if its not in your account. That is the only danger, and you can avoid that pretty easily by just keeping track of what you sign up for with your Paypal account.

You do NOT have to have a credit card, do you have a checking or savings account. If you do, fill in that information and then they make 2 small deposits into your account. All you need to do is wait a few days and then call the bank phone line. - It will be under 1.00. Once you call, and get those deposits, you put them on your account. If you have a debit account for that same account You can use that as the backup funding. that is what I did and I have had it for years! You have a "limit" because those transactions havent been verified. that will all change. You can verify with a credit card- and use that until your bank account is verified.

my account is unverified and i am able to operate it fine now as i am not earning that much so that can't draw ... if i earn that much then i will definitley try to get it verified by adding a credit card. you must really have earned very much ... congrats on that.

Yep, mine is verified. I guess it has to be for you to be able to use the money in it. Mine is through my checking account. I also ordered a paypal debit card, so I can use my paypal money by using that card at stores or ATM machines.

my girlfriend has a verivied paypal account because she has a credit card, I don't have one, so my paypal hasn't been verivied yet. It is secure so far, and there is nothing dangerous with putting you credit card there. You will receive some kind of PIN number to your next month's credit card billing statement which you will need to submit for the verification.
