    I'm in a pickle -I ordered a 3v card and set up a paypal account, all well and good. The 3v details have not come in, no card as yet, and I have to urgently pay for something via paypal!! Very bloody urgently like tomorrow......

    I thought it might take a while for the 3v card, but I've been waiting ten days or so and I can't hold off payment any longer....I don't think paypal will accept laser funds -how else can I get money into the paypal account please without any other sort of credit/debit card???

    Is there a way to transfer from my bank account?? Am a total idiot as regards online buying so don't be too harsh on me please:D

    If you need the money into Paypal tomorrow, the only way to get it there will be to get some else to send you the money. You can then use this to pay. You could then send to money to that person by bank transfer, or in person. As a recipient, you'll have to pay fees to Paypal, so you'll need to get more than the exact amount you need in order to cover this.

    Use this to calculate Paypal fees, and see how much you'd need. The fee is €3.75 on €100, leaving you with €96.25.

    If the amount isn't too big, I could help you out with this.

    Unfortunately, Paypal have been screwing dragona around, so it may have been in vein.
