The only way to ensure he doesn't reclaim the money back is to close your paypal account! A friend of mine had this done to her and now everytime she sells something closes the account til the next time she needs it, then she just starts up again. A lot of faffing about but its the only way.
If you withdraw the money then they reclaim it paypal will just withdraw from your bank (as they do with ebay fee's or payments for purchases) or take it out of your next sale.

This is why all of my ebay listings are either cash on collection or cheque/postal order, I dont trust paypal as far as I could throw their entire staff!! My ex partner and I lost over £400 last time we used paypal to sell things on ebay.

Seems legit, I would say. Not worth building up a good feedback to scam a DVD off someone!

Not having much luck at the moment. I've only managed to get 45p to put towards the challenge so far which i found in the street :T

I worked an extra 2 hours in my second job last week but they forgot to put it through the computer so i've not been paid for it yet :mad: Hopefully it will come through in next weeks wages and i can then add this to the total.... after tax it will probably only amount to £7.50 but its still extra money so its all good!!!

Its my birthday on Thursday so im hoping to get a bit of money for that so if i do half is going towards this 2!!!!

I've relisted some stuff on ebay and so far only one item is selling for 99p but there are a few items being watched at the moment so will just need to see if they change to bids. I tried to put the code in but cant seem to change the colour to white. Any ideas??? I've been reading through but cant seem to find it.

Need to check something - I listed 4 items yesterday on ebay (& sorry hadn't had time to update reading on this thread so no code input either) but I paid for all 4 items - this means I can't include them if they sell in my total doesn't it?

You can include profit - this isn't money from nothing last time this is simply raising more money. See initial thread.
Good luck

Just thought I'd check in.

I've spent the first week of the challenge getting to grips with matched betting - so far have cleared just over £25 in profit, and am waiting on a few free bonuses to be credit to my accounts. I've also managed to get quite a bit of cashback from Quidco but since it's not going to be paid for a while i've not included it in my running balance figure.

Tomorrow is my ebay listing day - bit annoyed i missed the 10p day on thursday but never mind. I just hope i don't get too distracted checking out everyone else's auctions with the secret code!

This thread it great, it's so inspiring to see what progress people have made in just a week. Again, good luck everyone!

Just revised my ebay items to put the code in... this is exciting!

Just a quick update, I’ve had a good couple of days on matched betting. Gained approximately £78 and also i should be getting £49.69 from a freebet via Vcbet.co.uk.

Will carry on posting in here but update my sig over the weekend.
