Actually, I always prefer to use the bank account but I also have to take an extra step. What they want me to do is to open a Paypal credit card and use that. For months I had to specifically change the default, which was "apply now for your Paypal credit line!" Now the default is to pay with the bank account, but there is still a page before the payment page which offers the option of opening an account.

Again for those of you out there who do not want to put your own accounts at risk, see if you can get your school to set up a special bank account for this and stick $100 in it.

I ended up linking my personal account to that paypal account. I called Paypal and talked to them and I couldn't figure out any other way around it. And I use Paypal so often for purchases, not using that account just isn't an option. Paypal had only 2 options for removing that spending limit, either to link to a bank account or to apply for their credit card. Neither was ideal!!! Sarah E.
