And funny thing you should say something about paypal verification.
I had my CC info stolen TWICE in 3 months.
The second time it happened I went crazy and canceled everything, changed every email etc.
I also made a new paypal account.
Like I said before I don't hook any accounts to paypal.
I either request a check once in awhile which is $3.00 or just leave the money sit there till I pay for something with it.
Now I happened to be selling something at the time and got paid........
No problem, the money sat in my paypal account for 2 weeks till I saw something on ebay I wanted.
Did a buy it now, went to pay with paypal and get the message "Can not send funds until verified"
So I have $ 90 sitting in my paypal account, and an auction I won for $76 and I'm not allowed to use my own money sitting in my account to pay for it.
WTF.
So I cal paypal, girl says I can't use it till I'm verified.
I'm like" I can 't use my own money to pay for something?" She says NO.
So the buy it now said you had to pay right away at the auction end so now I'm stressing.
The girl at paypal said the only way to get verified is to have them bill my card $1.00 and when I get my statement there will be a pin number next to the line on the bill.
Problem is discover doesn't post new purchase info to my card for three days...............
I had to call discover, get an operator, get them to review my current purchases till it got to paypal, then give me the pin.
Thats a lot of hoop jumping to spend your own money sitting in your own account............
