Adding a HK bank account to HK PayPal acct - fees just to verify from your local bank?!

MaxBoostHK · 18-06-2012, 07:25 PM

This should be a simple question to some of the members on GeoExpat here in HK that have established a HK PayPal account using a HK local bank (in my instance it's Wing Hang Bank).

When you add your local HK bank account for verification (current or savings) of your newly opened PayPal HK account was there any charges from your local HK bank? Did your HK bank charge you for the small deposit(s) that PayPal deposited into your account for verification purposes?

Thanks guys for all your help! =o)

Maybe for future reference to members here who might have the same question about PayPal HK. Just did a verification via local HK bank account and the small deposits from PayPal are done via a local interbank transfer. Some banks charge for this for inbound remittance but lucky me my bank doesn't charge this. =o)
