PE: In addition to having coffee ground and some dishes done, I've cleaned my desk and the counters. I've also managed to recruit the BF into helping me.
pretty sure blackmail was involved, if I had to guess

I'm going to ask this again. Is it safe to give Paypal one's bank account info so one can transfer money from paypal to one's bank account? This makes me nervous. Thank you.

It's actually fairly well documented (including information about how the Red Cross initially refused before finally giving in under protest when the military insisted) so there are much better sources, but I'm pretty short on time tonight, trying to get some photos processed all in one go to show in the morning. Cheers
Cheers right back at ya, Mr. Blue @Blue ! :)

I think so. I use paypal to buy stuff from websites I'm not entirely familar with, sorta like using a credit card so if anything goes wrong you have the company to back you up.

But it someone sends me money then I have to link to my bank account to get it out, right? Thanks.

I'm spoiled. I won't fill out customer feedback surveys, I'd rather get paid.

My Paypal account has been linked to my bank account for eons with no problem. But my bank is Chase, which has excellent security compared to some banks I've heard of.

I've had my bank account linked to my paypal for over 5 years and never had an issue.
Also, paypal has ridiculous security stuff. We recently tried to pay a vendor through them, and it's so secure, we got locked out of our paypal account AND our bank account without being able to get the transfer to go through. When we finally got the transfer to go through, paypal immediately canceled it because we were on a public wifi.

If that makes you feel more secure.

Yes, but with all places on the internet, security breaches are a threat. Besides that it's fine

I have a federal credit union but their security is good. I dropped paypal because it would pay for things like McAfee after I dropped McAfee and the I'd have to hassle to get my money back. It wasn't a problem just a hassle. I get very nervous giving this stuff out online.
