If you wait until you have $150 you can transfer it for free.

To get your account active you can get the pertinent bank info from your bank.

There's no fee for US bank accounts for any amount of transfer.

Tom's answer only applies to Canadian bank accounts.

The withdraw tab under my accounts. The answers are all there.

no i dont want to withdraw from my bank, i want to put money into my bank account that i got from paypal...and obviously it doesnt automatically transfer it because it doesnt show the money in my bank account. only the paypal account.

Oh. You have to authorize your account so that your paypal can be linked with your bank account, I think.

Paypal is suppose to send you two dummy deposits just to check the transfer, and you just notify them about the numbers and coded transfer log. I think that's how it's done.

Have you looked around the site while signed in? I feel like it's pretty easy to figure out.

In My Account, click on Withdraw, then Transfer funds to your bank account for FREE.

so how long does it take for the money to get there.... it says the transaction was completed but i still dont have the money into my bank account. paypal said it would be 3-4 days so i guess i will give it 1 more day. i just dont completely trust paypal yet.
