    Hi,

    Paypal give you
    Beneficiary Name
    Bank
    Sort Code
    Account No
    Transfer ID
    to Transfer Money, but Ulster Bank only have
    Name of Person or Company
    Account No
    Sort Code
    Reference (Transfer ID)
    So I'm missing a Data place.:confused::mad:


    Do you put Paypal in "Ulsters Name of person or company" or their Bank?

    Or do you have to go in to the Bank to do it??

    Beneficiary name would be the name of the person/company you are paying.

    So you'd leave out their Bank?

    That's what I was gonna do alright, I'm assuming between account and sort code Ulster probably have enough to process it...then the thoughts of the hassle to sort it if it goes wrong hit me.

    Ignore the bank, it's irrelevant.

    The only important ones are:
    Account No
    Sort Code
    Reference

    The sort code identifies both the bank and branch.

    Just enter it as it's shown in your paypal page where you get the transfer id.

    Ensure you use the IBAN/BIC and the Beneficiary name of "PAYPAL PTE LTD".

    It is crucial that you put the Transfer ID that Paypal gives you on your personal paypal page into the Reference, otherwise the money won't get assigned correctly, the IBAN/BIC is a common one for all transfers not for your personal account.

    Well now Paypal just provide a BIC and IBAN. And Ulster Bank only allow you to set-up with account number and sort code so what to do here?

    Swap to a bank that allows you to enter IBAN/BIC for transfers as any bank should do?

    Well the IBAN displayed to me is IE18 BOFA 9900 6153 2020 43 so you could use that to generate the bank account and sort code because our Irish IBAN mostly follow and easy pattern of IEXXBankSortCodeAccount.

    From my notes before IBAN it was Sort Code 990061 and account 53202043 which matchtes the IBAN, but you need to validate what the IBAN is that Paypal is giving you on the "load funds" page in your account settings.

    Good Luck.
