Does it cost anything? All I need it for is to pay for a Passarani CD. I heard they charge you if you want to add a credit card. Is this true? How much?

it doesn't cost you anything. well, i think. they charge a very, very small amount per transaction, and thats only if you are the seller on places like ebay.
hope that helps. either way, its a very handy service to be able to use.

Do you have your account activated? They have to transfer two small arbitrary deposits (like 21 cents and 43 cents) into your bank account so you can reply to verify that it is in fact your account. That takes a few days if I remember correctly. They may charge merchants on ebay a surcharge, just like credit cards charge stores that accept them 3 or 4 percent of purchases.
But as for me, I've used it a lot with no trouble at all, no cost to me.
To send money all you have to do is know the persons e-mail that they use for their paypal account, and do 'transfer funds' or something to them.

I had an account set up, but closed it... call me paranoid or whatever, but I just don't trust the internet with my credit card number... my parents had their stolen before, and I guess I'm ruined for it...

you're paranoid - it's safer to use your creditcard on the internet, as opposed to leaving it in the bar while you get drunk.

Yeah, it's really no different when you hand your credit card to a gas attendant to get gas. o wait, i think my state is one of the few places where self-service gasoline is against the law.

that's right. you get a code with that transaction on your bankstatement.
that code is your activation code.

the reason that it shows up as zero is that it remains at zero until:
someone pays you by paypal, it sits in your account until you pay it into your bank account.
but if you buy something, it comes straight out of your proper bank.
okay?

OK, here's the deal: I want to pay this ant-zen.com guy for a Passarani CD. I go to send money. I type in the amount 16.50¤ and the other little bits and pieces. As soon as I hit 'continue', there's a red text saying I have to enroll on the "exteded use program", pay them $1.95 to get my 4 Verification digits. There's nothing FREE about that.
Thank god for slsk. Atleast I have the MP3s.
