Hi there

I buy silk by paypal and I have a question for someone whouses paypal pls..

I live in the Uk and if i want to transfer money from my bank account to my paypal verified account it takes 7 - 9 working days..right..

The question is..

I found an option called ''instant bank transfer''

Is it possible to charge silk immediately, without any need to wait those bl00dy 9days? Paying by ''instant bank transfer''?

Can it cause any problem?Does it work? I have never used that option..

many Thanx!!!

They make THEIR money by using YOUR money ... that's basically how a bank works anyways ... the longer they can "work" with your money, the better for them ... I suppose it is kind of a premium feature or costs money, the instant transfer that is.
Can't tell because I didn't use PayPal so far.

But afaik it only takes 3 days for a transfer from here (GER) ... mhh o0

Same here: 3 days (SWE)

Anyway, Instant-transfers costs extra, so it's your call.

Hmm ... let's have a look how many customers PayPal has ... and let's assume every 2nd or 3rd uses that option ... nice extra income for PayPal.

Is it necessary to change into US-$? Or just for a better overview? Mine is still in € and I don't think I'd have a problem when just buying silk directly? O_o ... Correct me if I am wrong.

uh, you got a debit or credit card? add that to your paypal account, no need to transfer anything, the money will go instantly from your account to joymax when you buy silk.
