another Paypal query

I want to withdraw funds and transfer to my bank account. I see Paypal
charge 0.50p for this but my bank (Barclays) say they will charge a whacking
£6 to accept the transfer! I think the bod I asked at Barclays was clueless
and didn't know what they were talking about.

Anyone here regularly transfer into their bank account - Barclays or
otherwise?

Yes. I transfer mine to my Alliance & Leicester cheque account and they
charge me nothing. So all I lose is the 50p PayPal charge. Bear in mind
also that the 50p will come off the amount you choose to withdraw. So, if
you want a straight £50.00 to go into your bank you need to withdraw £50.50
from your PayPal account. Hope this helps.

Perhaps the Barclays person thought it was funds coming in dollars,
which they'd then charge you extra (6 pounds sounds as though it could
be about right) to convert it into pounds for you? That's not how PayPal
works. PayPal send an amount in pounds currency to UK bank accounts.

I regularly transfer money from PayPal into my Royal Bank of Scotland
current account, at no extra cost, other than PayPal's transfer fee.

i withdraw funds weekly, anything from £70 to £160 to either my hsbc
or lloydstsb accounts. you pay 50 pence to paypal everytime you
withdraw your funds, so its basically 50 pence less the total you are
withdrawing. your bank should not really charge you anything at all as
it is like any other bank transfer beteen two parties.

i used to withdraw funds in dollars when they would not allow pound
sterling withdrawal and the amount would get transferred to pound
sterling by paypal before going into your bank account so no charges
there either other than the $1 they used to charge then.

i hope the above helps.

I bank with them also - and have never had a problem. The funds are
usually in my account a week later

Could someone with a Lloyds TSB account to which money is transferred from
Paypal please tell me the correct name - I really dont want to lose £14 for
a failed transfer - and how about UK Account numbers only having 8 digits
and paypal showing 10?

Cheers,

Tom L-M

I just looked at my Paypal - I register with a spare account I kept on with
Lloyds - this is what it says so I assume I must have bumped the number up
with lead zeros. I will admit I've never used it to take money *out* of
Paypal. The only hassle I had at the start was my name on the bank account
and on my credit card didn't match - I just changed the bank account style
of address - was easier than fiddling about with the credit card that Paypal
had already accepted on record.

Paypal use BACs when transferring from themselves to uk banks.

Its just like when you get paid at the end of the month or whenever. If
banks started charging you to be paid I'd be really cheesed off.

I'm actually slightly cheesed off at my bank because I went overdrawn on my
student account so knew I would be getting £10 maintenace charge, it would
have been nice if they'd told me though
