I understand where you are coming from. I felt the same way before I verified mine. So what I did was went and opened up a completely separate checking account to use strictly with paypal. Best of luck!

You don't have to put in your bank information, I sure didn't! I verified it through the other method PayPal offers - they make two transfers into your account (just a couple of cents) and you then have to enter what those two amounts are. That's the way I verified it since I didn't want to enter my bank password.. and hey, I gained 27 cents in the process! Hehe! :)

You can purchase things with paypal anywhere pay[pal is accepted. Basically, having a verified account only affects you if you want to use it for commercial purposes. An individual personal account does not have to be verified to send or receive money via paypal. Actually, the best waty to get the answers to your questions is to consult paypal directly. They have an extensive FAQ, and customer service will answer further questions, also

Mine is not verified and I have never had a problem with buying stuff off ebay and other online stores.

I think it gets verified if you do like 10 transactions. I can't remember how I did to mine. I'm sure you can email them and ask them.

I have mine verified through my bank. The reason is I like to send all my money to my bank.. also I put a credit card.. on there as well. and now I can withdraw all the money I want.. and not have the 500 dollar limit each money. I really like paypal they are great! E gold is the next best thing to them.

if you will verify your paypal account then you can get a debit card which can be used anywhere a credit card is accepted. Paypal is very safe to use. I have had a verified account with them for 7 years and so far no problems.
