From Here: http://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=p/gen/ua...outside&ed=weapons

it says (buttom of page) "In addition, as no one under the age of 18 is permitted to use the PayPal service, regardless of the jurisdiction, under no circumstances shall the use of PayPal be permitted by persons under the age of 18."

well when you come to withdraw money how do you get away with it? Wouldn't your bank tell paypal or somthing?

if i were you, i would use my credit/debit card and sign up. i have been using since i got my debit card (15) and havnt been questioned about my age

Also, may i ask why you need it?

I need it to recieve and to send some money to some people. So when you sighned up with your credit/debit card, all the money u recieved went into the card? and all the money you sent came out of your card?

A debit card is just like a bankcard where you go to an atm and withdraw money right?

it is linked to your card. but money that you recieve goes into your paypal account. to transfer it to your account you need to choose the option to do that, and then wait about 7 working days for the money to appear in your bank account. If you send money, it will take it from your papyal account first and then from your bank account but without any delay. and if you want to transfer money to your paypal account from your bank account, again you will need to wait about 7 working days for it to be complete

Thanks for your help, but paypal is cheaper in fee's

a debit card is linked to the money you have in your account. so if you use your debit card, money from your account is taken. if you have no money in your account then you cant use your debit card

a credit card is when you are given a spending limit and it must be paid back
