Well, there went three hours of my life that I won't be getting back. I undertook to set my (keyword - MY) bank account up for online banking so I can accept e-transfers (send them too, for that matter) as well as re-register for a PayPal account. First moment of angst was when I discovered that, setting up MY account wasn't doable - UNLESS - I set up OUR account as well. RC is going to have a fit over that one because he's dead set against online banking. I plan to discuss how/if I can remove OUR account information the next time I'm in the brick and mortar bank...if they even know.
Then I switched my attention to setting up PayPal. After several fits and starts (and needing to give them my cell phone number which I don't give out to anybody!)...why oh why can't they accept an old-fashioned house phone number is beyond comprehension....I got to the point where they said they needed to deposit "an amount under 50 cents and then withdraw it again' to my bank account, which, when it arrived in my bank account, I was to then verify the amount with PayPal. Well, nearly two hours went past and no money showed up in my bank account. And guess what? PayPal timed out and I'm back to square one.
Oh, and did I mention that for some reason known only to the computer gods, my computer shut itself off in the middle of it all?

Sorry I've fallen down on links for you this time...will try to do better for Friday.
