I regularly pay people just using the transfer button on my online bank.

PayPal can be used to send money to anyone with an email address. (No purchase is necessary).

See here for details:

Agree Chris, I have sent money to people via paypal, you don't need their bank details, only their email address. Where are you transferring it from ooh-la-la, is it from another account of yours, or someone else's?

That'll be a ploy before the big sting.

lol! would you like a girlfriend eddie? he he!!
It's coming from someone else's account into mine. I'm always worried that people can take money out if you give them your account details hence i don;t really give them out.
Thankyou Buenchico, i think this looks alot safer, i'll give this a go :-) xx

Did you never write a cheque out? The cheque has far more details about your account than the account number and sort code.

If you go to PayPal as suggested, then the sender doesn't know your account details. I never give mine to anyone unless I absolutely have to.

There's nothing secret about account numbers and sort codes. You can find them for firms and charities easily.
