Re: OT - Q: how to link eBay account with Paypal?

I've had a checking account linked to Paypal for 18 years and have never had any problems with it. For safety and security, it's an account separate from my main savings/checking repository, at a different bank, but that doesn't mean there isn't a sizable sum of money in it. It's my daily use

Re: OT - Q: how to link eBay account with Paypal?

That's encouraging, Ann. From experience I generally assume that phone help is going to be pretty useless and a huge waste of time spent on hold, so I don't go there. Honestly though, based on having found hundreds of forum messages from folks in the same boat, I'm going to just buy the lens I

Re: OT - Q: how to link eBay account with Paypal?

I spent some time on Paypal looking into that possibility. They don't even acknowledge eBay's existence. But I can link my personal bank account if I wanted to. Yeah, right! Like I'm going to trust these monkeys with unfettered access to my money. Heh. On Tue, Jan 5, 2016 at 2:07 AM, John

Re: OT - Q: how to link eBay account with Paypal?

I do have a Paypal account. And there's a series of steps for linking that. But when I follow them, I end up back on eBay on the Paypal Account page, but no linking has occurred. It's circular. On Mon, Jan 4, 2016 at 8:42 PM, Paul Stenquist wrote: > Do you have a paypal

Re: OT - Q: how to link eBay account with Paypal?

I have kept my ebay and paypal accounts separate - never had any problem. But yes, set up a paypal account for starters... Then "link with paypal" thing willlikely show up. DOn't know if ebay Canada works differently... They are always nagging me to link and I've refused... but when I've
