Its not hard to withdraw funds from paypal, just add the bank account in paypal and yo can withdraw funds in your bank acc. But can you add funds to paypal using citibank suvidha acc debit card.

Why do you need a debit card to withdraw cash. Cant you link your bank account directly to withdraw money?

You cannot add funds to Paypal account from any Indian Bank account

to withdraw funds to bank acc you need to verify account, and yes, need to link the bank acc, that way its easy you need , hardly takes 2-3 business days, you need the below info to add a bank acc

I am a bit confused... :S

I have a unverified Paypal Account that I have used for making some purchases.

Now, if I get say 50$ in my Paypal Account and want to withdraw it to my Bank Account, do I have to first get my Paypal Account verified?? :S

I don't have a CC... So, how am I supposed to get my Paypal Account verified...??? :(

@nehaladsul : I don't think your account needs to be verified to make a withdrawal, anyway if you need to verify without a credit card, check this ;)

How To Verify Paypal Account Without Credit Card in India

@dhruvrock2000 : If you just want to withdraw the funds, as others said, add your bank account and withdraw. You will get the money in about 3-4 days.

If you want to make a payment with an Indian Debit Card, only cards from few banks work. Indian Bank MasterCard debit card seems to be working, but I have tried HDFC, ICICI. City Union Bank Visa cards and none worked.

Another option is to open an HDFC account and you can use the Netsafe VCC option to make payments, you can also go for the ICICI b2 account which gives an eWallet using which you can make international payments.

Just another small doubt: My Paypal name is Nehal Adsul while on my Bank Account, it is Adsul Nehal. Will that be an issue??

Link your bank a/c and you'll get it verified, they will deposit two small amounts in your bank a/c and you need to enter the amounts to get verified, Simply that's all, now after receiving the money you can withdraw it to your bank.

The method metioned above is for withdrawing the money in your Paypal account to your Indian Bank Account. Now if you want to make a payment at a website, you cannot fund the payment using your bank account. You will mostly need a credit card or you can try the options I mentioned above.

You can always open a dispute incase of non receipt of items etc.

Most welcome! :)

IMO you should should open a new account with the name exactly as in your bank account (I'm not sure whether they allow changing the account name of an existing account, try sending a mail to Paypal support) They will be making the payments by NEFT and there are chances for the transaction to be cancelled due to name mismatch.

I guess so... Yes...

But if you add the B2 eWallet, Paypal will automatically ask for verification IMHO.
