Is it possible to have your funds paid into a Building Society Savings Account instead of a Bank Account

It has to be a current account.

Part of the setting up process is that you set up a monthly direct debit to Ebay - that would pay any fees, refunds etc. if there wasn't enough in your Ebay balance.

You won't be able to set up a direct debit from a building society savings account.

I have a friend who used their Building Society account. It depends on the details of the current account they offer.

Hi davibramal-0, thanks for your post.

Just to add to the above, and confirm this, this should work as long as it is a current account, this is because we do not accept saving accounts. So, if your account is a savings account, I'm afraid it will not work.

Thank you,

Marco
