    Granted this is the best way to lose your Paypal account, under the agreement t this is a cash advance.

    Why would you lose your Paypal account ?

    I ask because I'm about to try doing this myself...have done a small test payment (less than £50) first which seems to have gone through OK to my wife's Paypal account.

    Was hoping to transfer a few K though.

    If I've linked the credit card OK, and selected the "send money to family/friends" option (or however it's worded) in Paypal when sending, so I don't feel like I'm doing anything dishonest...

    Is there some sort of payment size threshold that sets alarm bells ringing ?

    hmm, what are the fees involved? I thought paypal fees were quite high last time I looked?

    just checked, 3.4%, seems a little steep to me.
