Hi Dear Friend U have opened a paypal account .. good but Dear u should have Credit Card too .. it's important to be a verified member on paypal. I am a verified paypal member. Well don't withdraw money from paypal once u reach $10 instead of this use www.xoom.com to get your money. I have seen my many Indian friends crying when they withdraw money from Paypal. Ony 10 out of 100 will receive their cheque as because -- Paypal sends a cheque to Indian through very cheap ordinary post which hardly reaches you and if u try to take your money out through xoom it will take a matter of 2 - 3 days time. Yes xoom will definitely take their fees but atleast u will be satisfied that you got your money. Indian cannot transfer their paypal funds to their bank account. I will suggest you to make your credit card as early as possible and get verified through Paypal -- I will tell you how to do it -- but getting credit card is necessary.

Unfortunately , Paypal doesnt doesnt send money to Indian Bank accounts . we can ask for a bank cheque from Paypal after getting more than 150$ into our Paypal account . This cheque can be credited to any of the Indian Bank accounts . Pls see the following for more details related to money transfer to India from Paypal account  : http://www.money-transfer.in/paypalindia.html http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/440124.aspx http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/649496.aspx And you can add me as a friend to send me messages to clear any doubts related to Paypal account . http://www.mylot.com/nr/addfriend.aspx?q=131808

Don't quote me on it 100% but i think you need to have a bank account coz i reckon in order to get the money from your paypal account you need to transfer the money from your paypal account to your bank account. You also need a minimum amount in your paypal account before you can widthdraw the money. They might very well send a cheque but i haven't heard of that yet - maybe you should sign in to your PayPal account & actually read all their information - then you'll know how it works properly. You probably should have read the information before signing up, just in case a bank account is NECESSARY when you want to take out the cash! good Luck.
