Can an EFT be done from a compromised bank account?

[mmilus]

I have a host whose debit card has been compromised and is waiting to get a new one. She asked if I could do an EFT from her bank account and I don't know if this is possible or not. Can we do this? Thanks!

If you have the same bank, she can probably transfer to your account. Otherwise, I have no idea besides Paypal.

EFT is an Electronic Funds Transfer from her bank account to your bank account. It might take 2-3 days, but yes. You can let her pay you that way. Or just have her go into the branch & withdrawal the right amount of cash & hand it to you. But no, she can't pay PC on a show via an EFT.ETA: ****You would however be giving her your bank account number & routing number. So I'd only recommend that if you know her well enough to know that she's not going to try & use your account info for fraudulent purposes.As mentioned, PayPal is an option too. It uses her bank account & routing number, not her debit card info. So it should go through.

Thanks, all - she called me with her husbands credit card number instead so it's all good.

, as a pampered chef consultant, I understand your concern about your host's debit card being compromised. Unfortunately, we are not able to process EFTs from bank accounts at this time. However, I can offer alternative payment options such as credit card or PayPal. Please let me know if you would like to discuss these options further. Thank you for your understanding.
