Before, I thought that if I will be able to link my bank to PayPal I will be able to withdraw.
But I just found out that they have a withdrawal limit of $0.00 for unverified members. Yes, that means I cannot withdraw a thing. First, I need to get verified.
But no worries, once I get my debit card, I will link it to Paypal to get verified.
How about you? Are you all verified paypal members already?

You don't need a credit card or debit card to verify your account and to withdraw funds. You need to get your bank account verified by giving your account number and bank's IFSC code and you can easily withdraw money.
The advantage of linking your credit card or debit card to your paypal account is that you can lift off the $500 per month withdrawal limit which is set for unlinked accounts.

Hey, do they have different limits in different countries?
right now I have $500.00 sending limit and $0.00 withdrawal limit. And I think the only way to lift these limits is to link and confirm my debit or credit card.
By the way, I am from the Philippines.

This rstriction must be due to your location, which I notice is the Phillipines. I am still an unverified member, but to date I have withdrawn several hundred dollars via transfer to me bank account.
I live in the United Kingdom, so I assume that the same conditions must apply to all members here but vary from country to country.

I did not verify my paypal account and yet i'm able to withdraw money just form linking my bank account to it though.. haha =D I wonder if it's due to different countries with different regulations?? Because i dun seem to have any problems with it..
IN the past, paypal gave me an option of either linking to bank account or verfiy thru credit card, and i chose bank account.. So far, everything has been smooth for me.. The only difference is that i have withdrawal limit in a year as compared to verifying with credit cards ^_^

Hi, well this might sound like a breather for you......
well i transferred some funds from my paypal account to my bank account few days back and it got credited to my bank account not in 5-7 days but within 24Hrs.......yes that right within 24hrs. and my paypal account is NOT verified.....the unverified members of paypal have a withdrawal limit of $500 as many members here have mentioned......which country are you from? well i really don't think that the withdrawal limit is different for different countries.......you just need to link your account number and some details which you could easily get from your bank and you are done......if you want to lift those limit($500) only then you need to verify it......otherwise it is fine.....

Hi richiem, yes you can link your bank to paypal provided that you already verified your paypal. In other words, you have to get verified your paypal first before linking your bank. Once you get verified your paypal account the withdrawal limit will be lifted and you can now withdraw your fund directly to your bank. I was once confused about this before when i first knew about paypal but after reading helpful tips and procedures from other people experiences i have learned and was able to verify my account without experiencing any problem.

Yes, once we're verified then it's easy to withdraw.
It can be handy when we need a bit extra money and we have some on paypal, but it can take up to 5 days to get it in the bank, although not always.
I have never noticed that, and would think that anyone could withdraw, so I just learned something new today :)

Dear friend,
I was a verified member earlier but recently I was unable to withdraw any as I have to show my address proff, photo and bank statement, all these were uploaded and and finally I was able to withdraw the amount. I hope they are much concerned upon the security aspects. May be safeguard any fraud or manupulation of the accounts.

So, I can receive payments from all of my online work even with an unverified paypal account? This is good to know, as paypal does not answer my e-mails. They do need address verification for paypal to send checks, though, right?

Hey richiem! I am a verified member of PayPal! I became a
verified member when I joined mylot! That was the only way
I was able to get paid from this site so it was as good a
time as any to join. I haven't had any problem with PayPal
getting my payments or transferring them into my bank account.
I'm sure you will be happy using PayPal too.

I also have a same problem with paypal too.I have linked my credit card at my paypal's account.But i need to verify my account by enter the code that paypal send to my statement card.The problem coming when i still dont get my statement card.I know paypal send the code for make sure that the card we link to that account is our card and not by steal it.The company who issue my credit card has a problem with their credit card product.Before this,after i link the card a t paypal i can buy something in online but now i cannot do that anymore.I dont know why?Now,i regret because i don't make a research about it before buy the credit card from them.I hope your account will verify soon and will not be like me.Good luck and have a nice day.

I am not a Verified Member on the paypal but my account says the monthly with draw amount is 500$ then why it's says you 0$ and what's about your country and my country is India.
I think your country need the Verify account to Get your withdraw anyway.

Hi richiem,As far as I know there is no withdrawal limit in Paypal like 0 dollars as you are saying.Most probably it is 500 dollars as far as I know.I personally have not withdrawn anything from them yet but that is what a lot of people told me.You can re check it friend.
