Hey, I was wondering if anyone with knowlage of this could help.

I was trying to send payment to split, for a powerclip and some petg, via paypal. When i went to send it, it says my sending limit is 0.00$, unless I add a bankaccount/creditcard. I used to have a debitcard linked to it, be removed it a while back, because It expired, and I didn't feel the need to renew it.

So, my question is, is there a way to send money via paypal, without linking it to a bank account/ credit or debit card?

No, Paypal is just a way of transferring money. Its like using paypal to give them the money in person, but through the internet. So if you gave it to them person-to-person you would have to have the money, right? So if your using PayPal you still have to have the money, right? The way PayPal gets the money is through your bank account or credit card.
Hope you understood that.

I understand that, I'm saying, its allowing me to receive money ( I have money on my paypal ) but not allowing me to send it, because its not linked, and I was wondering if there was away around this.

If you link it to the bank account, it says that you have to wait to confirm it, yet it allows you to use up to $500 when that bank account is still unconfirmed.

I tried, but it asks for routing numbers, and an account number, none of which I have.

Seriously? Call the bank...

By not having, I mean not having a bank account. I was asking if there was a way to send money WITHOUT having to link a bank account/credit card, and if there was how, as I've searched, and still am seraching, to no avail.

Have you called their customer support?
I've called Paypal about problems multiple times, and all but once it has been resolved quickly.

The one problem that they didn't resolve for me was dealing with refunding internationally, which is a pain when you are dealing with other currencies.

Give them a call, and if they can't fix the problem for you, then they will at least be able to tell you why you can't send anything.

It has to be linked to something in order to work.
