Nic_A31 Posted October 3, 2009 Share Posted October 3, 2009 Limit on single transactions from your bank ? Isnt there a way to put money into your paypal account, so its there and ready? Try doing that, either in a single movement, or multiple s ? Or hit up the bank. Did you get a two digit number shown up when it declined? they act as a code, like EFTPOS machines do.

PUDZ 32R Posted October 4, 2009 Author Share Posted October 4, 2009 here is the rims i want.. if anyone knows where i can get them in oz i would happily buy them. i have spent over 2K in one transaction at harvey norman before and no worries.. this was only going to be $830.. so im a bit confused. again if anyone knows where i can get these in oz it would be a lot easier. cheers.

Spunky Munky Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 I can only thing of two things... 1. As others have suggested - daily transaction limit from bank. 2. Have you confirmed your Paypal account yet? With Credits you do not have to do this - whereas bankcards you do. I have used Paypal on many transaction - all went well plus there's free insurance up to $20K so that's peace of mind for you too.

ali-turko Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 you do have to verify your account even if you do have a credit card to lift all sending limits, when i was trying to buy an item for $1800 wouldnt let me until i got verified Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/290471-paypal/#findComment-4871201 Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazzvass Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 I can't add my bank account to my PayPal account, and here is why! This is the third time I have added my bank account to a PayPal account. First two times I deleted my account because I decided not to have one, as they are an absolute scam if you sell a few things on eBay. I decided to get PayPal again, as it is now the standard for making any transaction on eBay. I couldn't add my bank account this time, since their policy is not to allow it to be added for a third time, as it might be shifty. I gave them a call to discuss my options. My only option is to get a new bank account. I will definitely not be doing that anytime soon! So now I have money sitting in there that I can't get across to my bank account, and since eBay has made it the standard for transactions then it looks like I am crippled when using eBay. It's a stupid system if you ask me. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/290471-paypal/#findComment-4875869 Share on other sites More sharing options...
