    I'm sure you're perfectly respectable however I call this "fraud by proxy" because the money might not be sent back to the sender, or might be sent then withdrawn at a later date.

    I've seen people ask for such things a few times - and I stay well clear, eventhough the Paypal dispute would probably go in the sender's favour.

    Just to make people aware of the risks :)

    Then setup the account properly so that it's linked to the bank account and will withdraw as necessary.

    I can't remember the exact steps/requirements though but it's pretty simple, though if you can't do it it's a case of bad luck really, I'm afraid :)

    it is set up properly and is linked to the bank account. its only instant from bank account when actually sending money, NOT when issuing refunds, which is what i need to do. please get your facts straight before posting, thanks

    i dont see what the big deal is?

    i bank transfer you £90 right now, can provide screenshot, give you my address, phone number whatever you want, and you just send £90 to my paypal account

    ive done it before myself for someone..look in my trust

    Screenshot isn't anywhere near acceptable as proof of a payment. If you were to send a payment to someone not with your bank, they'd get it on Wednesday, but you can still recall that payment at any time before the debit date, and sometimes later. Not a chance.

    Why can't you just let the yank know it will take a week or so for funds to get through?
