    Err, I'm not sure how your supposed to get money on it. But I think you have to add a banking account or something :S I dunno.

    Btw if your only gonna do that to buy my account and never use it, don't. That other guy bid 30$ USD and I think I'm going to sell to him right now.

    All you need is your bank member number, transit number, and institute number. Then paypal will make 2 small deposits into your account then you verify the account....

    Yes you need a credit card, they accept:

    Visa
    Mastercard
    Amex
    Discover
    ECheck

    "American Express cards will be charged in USD. Paying with American Express will result in currency conversion fees if your card is not denominated in USD and/or if you send a non-USD payment.

    Debit Cards (also called check cards, ATM cards, or banking cards) are accepted if they have a Visa or MasterCard logo. " - PayPal

    And i just said, that i also have my savings account and it worked perfectly, i first put ym savings account onto paypal....

    You do not need a credit card, nor chequing account to use paypal, you just need a bank account and your set.
