Answer:
Here's a hot tip: Get a Gift Card so you can linit the amount of money available for anyone to steal, then use that to open your PayPal and get a debit card from them to use online.
No you should be able to use it with your bank account information or a debit card at the very least.
I don't care to copy and paste things. I also don't forward chain emails or letters.

No, you do not need a credit card for Paypal. You do, however, need to have a bank account.
PayPal is one of the most popular online money transfer systems widely used for online auctions, pay to surf programs, e-books and purchase of low value goods.
It is now a part of the online auction website eBay.

no you dont have too, u only need a checking or savings account to open up your paypal account. from there on you can add credit/debits cards to add more sources for funding.
