Can I receive money if my bank account is not attached too it?

If I can, and receive lets say $25, can i use that money to buy something if my account is still not attached?

No, I've been over all the aspects of this. They will let you put money in, but you can't spend anything without having your account "confirmed", which means you have to connect a bank account or a credit card.

You actually can receive money, but your options for what to do with it are very limited.

No. I'm not connected. You can spend money but only up to a certain amount

And spend it. You just kinda have to have someone send you money first

years ago I think I had my paypal account without attaching it to any bank account, but I did have to do a confirmation with my physical address.
