I took advantage of the premium member 512m land,i decided to get a 1024 piece instead,it will cost me $5.00 US a month.
My question is, will they take the payment from my paypal account as they do for my yearly membership or do i need to have US$ in my account US dollar Balance

Someone who uses PayPal will give a better answer than me but if it's anything like they do with credit cards, they will first try to get the $US from your account and, if it isn't there, they will try to get it from the payment method that you've set up - credit card in my case (when I used to pay LL) and I assume PayPal in your case.

I just make sure I've got it sitting in my USD balance cuz I don't like them digging around in my accounts, lol. So I make it easy for them, "LOOK", here it is.......

For tier or monthly/quarterly/yearly membership fees, they will take first from your US$ balance if you have any on your account and the rest, or all, from your payment method. So far, the Xstreet US$ balance does not come into the equation.

Yes, exactly.

This is what they do with me.

Back in the day when there were tons of billing problems, I always transferred sufficient US dollars at the beginning of each month to my SL account to cover expenses. As a matter of fact I still do. That seems to be the safest way to handle the situation.

UK doesn't matter. If you sell $L on the Lindex exchange, the proceeds go into your SL account as a "US $" balance.

And you should, I think. You don't want to be paying PayPal processing fees every month on a $5.00 transaction.
