    I keep getting emails from paypal saying I've set up direct debits to pay off ebay purchases and that I can change this if I want, the email adress is notice-34pmkli7@ppal.com but always goes to my junk mail. Has anyone else had this before?

    Thanks

    Ive had paypal emails to my email accounts i have not used for paypal but never had one to the actual paypal email address.

    Probably because the email address is so generic random character generators have not got there yet.
