Paypal Direct Debits
Comments
-
According to some people in this thread September this year. According to Natwest though PP is one of my DD which was last used in November
When you say that do you mean
1) in November you funded your Paypal account by pulling money in from your Natwest account using Paypal's DD facility
or
2) in November you bought something using Paypal as payment method, with funds drawn from your Natwest account0 -
The last time I succeeded in pulling funds from my bank to Paypal by direct debit was set up on 1st December and completed on 6th December. I've tried several times since but got an error message each time.0

Pretty much the same for me, although making purchases with direct debit still seems to work ok0

Yep, same here. The app was letting me pull money by DD at the start of the month - now it's not happening.
Is there a minimum amount for a DD to be used when buying something with Pay Pal? Can I just by a 1p item from eBay?0 -

I bought something, using Paypal. That money was taken from my Natwest account and Natwest listed it as a DD that had last been active on the day of transaction along with all my other DD0 -

That's what I thought.
This discussion is about Paypal having withdrawn the facility to fund your Paypal account by pulling money in through a DD on your current account.0 -

Indeed, but if (and I don't think we know this for sure yet) Paypal is withdrawing that facility, some people may adopt the tactic of buying something on ebay each month in order to trigger Paypal to use the direct debit. It opens up the possibility of whole new threads along the lines of "how can I find ebay items for 1p and no postage?" !0 -

We do know that. The facility to fund your Paypal account by DD online has already been withdrawn.
Several posters are already using the occasional buy through Paypal for those current accounts which require only an 'active' DD, and have been doing so for years.
The advantage of being able to fund one's own Paypal account was that one could then withdraw the money, without having to spend/buy anything. This was useful for those accounts which required a DD to be paid out every month.
I'm sure some people will be happy to buy something from eBay every month just to trigger a nominal DD. I'm not one of them;)0 -

Guys, 'send money to another person' to send something to the Paypal account of a relative. I can see the payment shows up as a DD in the bank account!0
