Lots of people are still using PPDBMC for Serve. As long as there is other activity without PPMC, I personally think it is fine.
I know the idea was to get PPMC involved, but I think that's where all the risk is.

Does anyone have any tips for getting large debit purchases through? I tried a $2,300 payment over the phone the other day using PIN-less debit w/ PPBDC and it was declined.
No reason specified, can't find any alert / information in my paypal account or e-mail. Didn't want to call for obvious reasons. My PP -> Serve loads are still working just fine.
Any ideas? I figured it would be similar to a fraud alert on a CC but I found nothing.

Searched but couldn't really find an answer for this:
Let's say I used my PPBDMC to pay my Citi bill of $200, but I don't have any funds in my Paypal account. Would PPBDMC pull from my backup source, even if it's a CC? Or would it pull straight from my bank account? Or would the transaction be declined altogether?

Just want to report a person experience with error code 203. I bought the cards a while ago (a few weeks) and tried to load them today. I'm out of town. Got the 203 error code. REad the previous paypal thread and someone speculated that it may be geographical. So, I used my vpn to go to a location near my home where I purchased them, and then the load worked fine.
Best of luck to anyone else with this problem, I was worried I'd be sending in receipts, but the location fixed it.

With the closing of BB - I am thinking of using PP to meet minimum spend requirements for CC bonuses.
Is it safe to send money to friends using credit cards (pay the 2.9%+30c) fees, then withdraw money to bank, have friend send back the money through his CC incurring same fee while we both hit min spends?

Did anyone else get a notice today about a class action settlement against Paypal for allegations that Paypal "improperly placed holds and reserves on accounts or closed or suspended accounts"?
I wonder if this includes closures for loading PPMC.
